Brit\u2019s sister has two daughters. Me and Memphis, that\u2019s it,\u201d Aldean said of being outnumbered in his own family. \u201cIt\u2019s crazy, but I think the one thing growing up in a house with a lot of women, I think he\u2019ll be spoiled and also hopefully be a loving kid.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Memphis\u2019 two older sisters, Keeley and Kendyl from Aldean\u2019s first marriage, are his favorite people in the world according to Aldean. \u201cEvery time they come around, he lights up and just wants to hang out with them all the time,\u201d he said. \u201cAny little kids who are around, he just wants to go up and hug them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Keeley, 15, has already started showing an interest in guitar and Aldean says she is pretty impressive. And if Memphis shows an interest in music? \u201cI\u2019d like to get him out and start banging around on instruments and stuff and hopefully have him pick it up pretty quick if he\u2019s into it. If he\u2019s not, he\u2019s not,\u201d he said. Aldean didn\u2019t pick up the guitar until he was in middle school, but by the time he was 15, he was already playing gigs around Georgia.<\/p>\n<p>Once his fourth child arrives \u2014 Navy, due in February \u2014 Aldean says that his family will be complete.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m good. I think at this point, this is No. 4 for me.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo me, four healthy kids, I feel blessed to have that. And my wife\u2019s been pregnant for two years. I don\u2019t think she\u2019s in any hurry to jump back and go through that again neither,\u201d he said. \u201cI think we\u2019re good.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"author\">\n<div class=\"description\">Alison makes her living loving country music.
