Josh Turner and his wife Jennifer will welcome their third child early next year and it seems Josh may have been the first to know. With the experience of two pregnancies with Jennifer behind him, the singer says he noticed his wife acting "a little different" and encouraged her to take a pregnancy test.

"She did and it was negative, but I refused to believe it," Josh tells People magazine. "So when she took another and told me she's pregnant, all I could say was, 'I told you!' and she was floored."

Baby Turner will join sons Hampton, 3½, and Colby, 1.

"I come from big families," says Josh. "My momma was the oldest of three and my daddy was one of six -- and I've always loved children. They bring a lot of joy to the world and they make us adults look at things in a better way. So it's a natural thing for me and Jennifer."

Although he jokes they may need "a bigger bus," Josh and Jennifer (who plays keyboards in his band) are used to traveling with kids in tow.

"We couldn't leave them behind," Josh told The Boot earlier this year, "so we adjusted as we went along. It works out real good, because when we are out there on stage, she has a job and I have a job. Then on the bus we both have jobs to do. We work as a team, but we're best friends and co-workers. And we know when that time comes when we need to take a break from each other, and we know when the opposite is true. It's been a learning experience, but we are better together."
