You will likely not feel ready no matter how much you read/research/hear about raising kids. You simply cannot be prepared for everything you will run into. You have to be flexible, roll with the punches, and be able to laugh even when things are hard.
Already a lot of great advice hear, but I'd echo that your kids are with you temporarily (at least live with you), but your wife isn't. I've seen marriages fall apart when the kids are out of the house, it shouldn't be like that.
It goes quick! We have four between 3 and 10. Its crazy to think our oldest is more than halfway to being out of here...
