More details to this question:
I work at an international organization and have a G4 visa, for the G4 visa benefits I gave up my green card many years ago. My husband and 6 children are U.S. citizens. I want to adjust my status and request a green card as I will be retiring and want to live here with my family. My husband and I would like to file the paperwork on our own. Do we need to file I-130, I-130A, and I-485 and, if so, all at the same time? Thank you.

Yes, that is the best way, and as you are working at an international organization under G-4, you will likely have to file an I-566 interagency report of request- A, G, or NATO dependent employment authorization or change/adjustment to/from A, G, or NATO status.
