I'm not gonna beat around the bush today because, well, I've been waiting to share this news for as long as Taylor Swift has been singing about her lame ex-boyfriends. (Sorry Taylor. But it's true.) Ok so maybe that's me being a little dramatic but I've felt like I've been holding this in for-ev-errr. Alas, I have been given the go-ahead to shout it from the rooftops so shout it from the rooftops I shall do...
aaaand GO.
I'm gonna be an AUNT!!
And you know what's better than being just a regular ol' aunt?
Being and aunt TIMES THREE!
'Tis true mah good friends...my beautiful sister-in-law (Beau's sis) is with child...
errrr-THREE child(s)!!!!
TRIPLETS, y'all!
You know what that means?!
Three times the poopy diapers.
Three times the midnight feedings.
Three times the sleepless nights.
Three times the cries and quivering lips.
But then again...it's three times the tiny onesies.
Three times the itty bitty toes.
Three times the everlasting love.
Three times the heartfelt joy for Julie and her husby, Brian! (And me, of course!)
Talk about the best Christmas present...EVER...and they're not even mine!
(Even better, right?!)
You know what this also means?! Beau and I are totally off the hook for a few years, if ya know what I mean!! Hell yes.

While Julie's little body is about to go through a lot over these next 5ish months or so, the babies are doing just fine so far and other than all-day-sickness (poor thing!), our little momma is doing well, too!
Meet the entourage:
Makes my heart go pittah pattah!
The little bambinos are 12 weeks old and are actually a little bit ahead of schedule! {Grow babies GROW!!} Julie has heard strong heartbeats from all 3 and should find out in the next couple of weeks how many of these nuggets are boys and how many are girls!! (Fingers crossed for a mixture of both!) They are so loved already!!
Ahhh! Let the triplet spoiling begin!
So there.
No more secrets.
Please keep Julie & Brian in your thoughts and prayers as they endure many new changes over the next few months. Oh! And if you would, head on over to her blog and leave her some love, would ya?! (Yep! She's been sucked into this blogging world, too!) I know it will be much appreciated it!
This is going to be so. much. fun.
I can already tell!

Not gonna lie, totally thought you were going to be the one preggo! But I agree, being an aunt is so much better :) And triplets?! Shew. That's going to be quite the precious little handful. Congrats to them!
ReplyDeleteThat is such great news!!! I don't know how she's gonna do it, I find it hard with one hehe!!! For a second I thought it was you because I just saw the picture, then I read lol!!! Congrats!!!
ReplyDeleteOMGah I am so jealous!! I want multiples!

Congratulations Auntie... TIMES 3!!! That is so exciting!!!
ReplyDeleteomg, triplets?! that is so awesome! congrats to them. sending them tons of positive vibes & prayers!
ReplyDeleteThree?! Holy Moly that is going to make for some fun times!!!! Congratulations Auntie!!!!
ReplyDeleteTriplets!? How exciting. I'm going to be an aunt for the first time this year too. My sister and her husband has been trying for 8 years, but they are just having one, ha.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on becoming a soon to be aunt of 3 . I can hardly imagine one baby, let alone three. They are blessed!
ReplyDeleteHoly camoley! 3 kiddos???? Congratulations!!!
ReplyDeleteNot going to lie....all I saw at first was the title and ultrasound pictures. Whew, you almost had me! I'm just waiting for it ;)
ReplyDeletePraying for those sweet babies and their parents. What blessings!
I can't lie I was hoping for this news to be coming from you but it's okay we will all wait patiently for little Beau's. I once dreamed of having triplets when I was about eight. Then I grew up and realize that it would be a whole heck of a lot of work but still even more of a heck of a lot of cuteness to go around. Congratulations to you and the sis-in law!!
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA well now that we're off the hook for a while, little Beau's won't be making their debut for another year or so. ;) Oh gosh, girl-as fun/exciting as it looks, I don't think I could handle triplets. I mean, I don't even know how I'm going to handle ONE baby on my own lol. Thank you sweet girl!! xoxo
DeleteWOW! That's awesome! What a blessing....x3!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting!! :)
ReplyDeleteSO exciting! Three babies is like woah but what an amazing journey this will be for everyone!
ReplyDeleteO my goodness!! I cannot even imagine 3 at one time. SO much fun! You will be the best little Auntie ever!
ReplyDeleteoh wow! Well congrats on bein an Auntie! At first I thought you were prego and got so excited! She's just behind me! I'm so glad they only found 1 heartbeat for me lol I can't imagine!
ReplyDeleteWell.... I saw the sonograms in my Google Reader and thought FOR SURE that was your womb and had a minor freak out.
ReplyDeleteNow that that's over. CONGRATULATIONS on being an Auntie! :)
AWE! Congrats!! How exciting!!!!! Being an aunt is the absolute best!!
ReplyDeleteHOLY SMOKES!!!! I cannot imagine three babies but HOW EXCITING for your family!!! Congrats to your sissy-in-law! :)
ReplyDeleteThe Lord must have granted them with the "special patience" gift because the Man Upstairs doesn't give anyone anything they can't handle. That's why He gave me one at a time! LOL!! This is so exciting. Keep us all posted....as I am sure your proud aunty self will. :)
ReplyDeleteWhen you posted on twitter you had some exciting news I immediately thought baby!!! This is amazing news...those babes I'm sure are already so loved! Congrats Auntie!
ReplyDeletethis is WONDERFUL! So exciting! I love being an aunt to one so I am sure three will be awesome! Do you mind me asking if this was natural? I ask because in the past 3 years I know TWO women who have had natural triplets!! No drugs or anything. Nuts!
ReplyDeleteBeing an auntie is the best! I am mildly obsessed with my niece. I can't even imagine triplets though! Best of luck to her!
ReplyDeleteSo exciting! I have a special place in my heart for multiples, my dad is an identical twin, my childhood best friend was part of a triple set and one of my cousins had identical twins last year. Congrats to your family!
ReplyDeleteWow that's huge news! Congrats aunty! Are they identical or fraternal triplets?
ReplyDeleteTheir auntie is going to have 3x's the love!!
Eeeeeeeek!! How exciting Steph!!
