This looks like I can answer with my cell phone keyboard!  (On a side note, please forgive my more numerous than usual spelling mistakes in this.  I don't have spellcheck on my phone, and my spelling is lamentable at the best of times.)

Does it count if I entertained myself with thoughts of little Iroh having nieces and nephews older than he was?

Oh this. It is an international relations nightmare in so many ways. Here's hoping the writers never try to make him heir to the throne.

ZUKO: *wakes up in the middle of the night with Mai seven months along* Oh Spirits, no! Our children will be siblings, there will be royal siblings again!
MAI: *whacks him on the head* there have been plenty of happy sets of royal Fire Nation siblings throughout history. Your family was warped. My family was warped. We will not be warped, and if any of our children try to kill each other, they will answer to me, understand?
ZUKO: *nods very quickly while backing away and making soothing gestures*

I'm warming up to your idea more and more.

I'd like to give Bryke the benefit of the doubt and assume they've thought through this. I've doubted them before and it's turned out alright, but I guess now that they've got a whole other season to stretch something like this out. Besides, I have a feeling he's not going to turn into much more than a once-off character (I hope I'm proven wrong, but in the end I'd prefer more time spent on the main cast).

I sometimes feel sorry for Mai. She has to knock him back down every time he gets like this (which I can imagine is often).

It's adorable, isn't it?

It's not that I doubt them, it's that I constantly think of every way a story could go wrong, and then worry, because I always worry, whether I trust the writers or not. (I would like to see a little more of him too, mostly because I want to meet his aunt/mother, and at least know what her name is.

*snerk* She knew what she was getting into.

Admittedly it's me trying to reassure myself as well. I think when you get such a great show you do worry that it won't live up to your expectations. I holding out hope that they'll go on a holiday to the Fire Nation for season 2 so we find out those kind of things.

That's the only reason I don't feel sorry for her.

This. Plus A:tLA is so brilliant that they have me terrified that I'm seeing what isn't there or something.

Part of my headcanon for her is that most of the time, she enjoys smacking him in the back of the head for being Zuko.

And this is with the SECOND child. When Mai was pregnant with their first child, he was probably freaking out over the fear that he might be like Ozai.
Mai: Zuko, calm down. You are NOT going to turn out like Ozai.
Zuko: But Mai, what if I DO?
Mai: Fine, I'll castrate you if you even THINK about setting our kid's face on fire. Does that make you feel better?
Zuko:...No, not really.

*cackles* Though I'm sure when his children hit their teenage years, he begins to see the appeal of exile...

Yes, that's exactly how it would go. Mai finds it annoying that the fact that he adores the ground his children walk on doesn't reassure him.
