When he first started his career Jason Aldean never imagined his tour bus would look like what it does today — full of cribs.
Speaking to Fox News backstage at the iHeartRadio Music Festival, the country star admits that life with three kids — daughters Keeley, 15, Kendyl, 9, and 9-month-old son, Memphis — along with one on the way is “exciting.”
“It’s amazing all of the stuff that I forgot with my older two that I have to relearn,” says Aldean. “The house now is definitely different, but it’s cool. It keeps you busy, and [Memphis] tours with us.”

“I never in the early days of my touring career thought I would ever see that,” admits the 41-year-old singer, who is expecting his second child, a daughter, with wife Brittany Kerr.
“It’s different,” explains Aldean. “It’s a lot different now than the early part of my career. Things are settled down. Now I got babies. I got playpens sitting outside my bus. I’m watching college football, and [Memphis] is in the playpen. That was never a thing early on. So it’s cool. We’re excited.”

“I think it’s going to be fun,” says the star. “Hopefully, they’ll grow up really close and have a built in best friend. That’s what we were hoping for, so we’ll see.”
In July, Aldean announced that the couple was expecting again with an Instagram post of Memphis wearing a “Big Brother” onesie.
