We've adopted 4 times...3 infants and one pre-schooler.
I definitely wanted my first to be an infant. I wanted (as crazy as it sounds) the 3:00 a.m. feedings...everything.
Our second child was an infant also. Our third was an older child, and our last child was an infant.
I haven't read all the replies, so forgive me if I'm repeating something that's already been said. If your heart's desire is to have an infant, then I think this is what you should wait for.
For me, and only me, I found it easier raising infants. I've dealt with attachment issues with our older child, and it was very, very difficult. I'd never go through that again.
I know my family is now complete, but if it weren't, I'd only consider adopting infants again.
Good luck with your decision. :)
