This is common/normal.  I wrote a script (still working on getting it
added to the base system) to deal with this issue.  Please see:

http://jdc.parodius.com/freebsd/netwait

Drop this into /usr/local/etc/rc.d, chmod it 755, and read the
descriptions of the variables and add the appropriate settings to
rc.conf.

Please be aware netwait_if only takes a single interface; you're using
lagg, so I hope that when your system boots whichever interface you pick
in netwait_if the one which you default to using.
