USMagazine, Thursday, February 28, 2013, 12:40pm (PST)

Snooki can't get enough of her 6-month-old little boy Lorenzo, but the MTV reality star is already thinking about giving her son a sibling. "I want four kids!" the Snooki & JWoww star -- engaged to Lorezno's dad Jionni LaValle -- tells Us Weekly.

Anxious to expand her family, the New Jersey-based mom, 25, first wants to put down permanent roots and move into a home she and LaValle can call their own. "I want [another] kid already, I just need to get my house first," Snooki told Us in December just prior to Jersey Shore ending its six-season run on MTV.

Currently building a new home 10 minutes from LaValle's parents' house in the Garden State, the TV personality predicts she'll be pregnant again in a year-and-a-half.

"I want four kids, so I want to [get pregnant again] soon," she muses. Until then, Snooki is enjoying Lorenzo's latest milestones, and gushes to Us that the infant has "made me a better person." "He's made me so much more mature -- he's my life and all I think about," says the proud mom, adding that she can't wait for the day when Lorenzo begins to crawl. (On Jan. 31, Snooki tweeted that the boy had recently "discovered his feet and loves stretching now.")

Six months into her stint as a first-time mother, Snooki is winning raves from her friends and family when it comes to her parenting skills.

"She is a great mother," Snooki's Jersey Shore costar Paul "Pauly D" DelVecchio confirms. "Everyone says 'She's crazy, how could she be a mother?' But she flipped a switch -- she went right into motherhood. She said she was scared she wouldn't know what to do but her motherly intuitions kicked in and I can see it."
