I suppose I named this blog Team Patterson for a reason, however I wasn't aware 6 months ago how fitting it really was. Team Patterson came about on the day of our rehearsal for our wedding and was mentioned again during our wedding ceremony more than 4 and a half years ago by our minister. There was a point in the ceremony when our hands were placed on top of each other's, like they would be in a flag football huddle before someone yelled, "break!". The minister then remarked in his speech about how sometimes each of us may have to pick the other up by saying, "Go Team". Since then, Brian and I like to think of ourselves as a team. We work well together, communicate, and make a plan for our future.
With all of that being said, Brian and I are thrilled and blessed to announce that "our team" is expanding because I am PREGNANT!!!
Not only that, but we are expanding by not one...
Not two...
But by THREE babies!!
Yes, my friends, we are having triplets. We are instantly becoming a family of five (the size of an actual team). Triple the diapers, triple the carseats, triple the smiles, triple the college tuition, and triple the LOVE.
I am 12 weeks along and per our last ultrasound, all of the babies look healthy and are a tiny ahead of schedule in size. I`m beginning to show (especially since there are three) and I'm hoping I'm close to being out of the woods when it comes to morning sickness...that is a whole different story.
Brian and I are beyond excited to be welcoming these little guys (or girls) in to the world towards the end of May. We realize this pregnancy comes with risks... like bed rest, complications, and possible time in the NICU, but we are already feeling the love and support around us. We are so blessed.
Without further adieu... Coming in 2013...
Baby A
Baby B
Baby C
Thanks to our family and friends for all of the well wishes so far. It has been so fun to tell those close to us. I will soon be posting videos from our reveals to our family and friends as well as updates from the pregnancy.
Adios from the FIVE of us!

Popping over from your SIL's blog, and am your newest follower. I hope you feel better soon and can start enjoying the pregnancy more.
Such exciting news (and super excited for Aunty Steph too!!) Praying that all goes well throughout your pregnancy...
Quite a personal question - but were these triplets naturally conceived or with fertility help? I am interested to know.
