When to get a dog?

I am going to post this also in the dog section.

I have a two year old and a 4 year old and I am 2 months pregnant with daughter number 3. I have wanted a dog forever but first I couldn't agree whether to adopt or breed, then it was the breed of dog, then the gender, then the colour and when I thought I had it sorted, me and my husband were busy with baby duties in a small flat.
My husband died a month ago and I think us girls need distractions. Of course, it wouldn't just be a distraction, it would be a fur baby. I now live in a big house and have enough money to get a dog. Childcare would be fine when combining kids/dog. My half sis loves dogs and would be happy to dog sit.
I grew up with dogs. I adore dogs and so do my kids. I want a female Cavapoo. I am wondering whether to get one now, when the kids are young, or to get one in lets say 5 years time when they are older.
Experince and help much wanted. Thanks!
