Let’s hope Nick Lachey is ready to change diapers.

There may not be any little ones on the wa just yet – but girlfriend Vanessa Minnillo tells People magazine she’s looking forward to the day there is.

“I can’t wait to be a mother one day,” the TRL host said at the Bacardi Limon Express Your Style Design Competition Thursday night in Manhattan. “I want to bring three boys up to be good men in this world and then one little girl. I always say I want three boys and a girl, but at the end of the day I just want healthy kids.”

Sounds like a brood capable of competing with that of Brangelina to us.

Looking flirty in a figure-hugging Nanette Lepore sleeveless dress and gold lamé Hollywould shoes, Minnillo, who has been dating Lachey for almost a year now, said her beau “is a nice guy. He’s in the studio recording right now [in] L.A., Nashville, New York. All over, with something for everyone to look out for.”

She also said it’s the couple’s “privacy” that helps them click, perhaps a dig at Nick’s former, publicized marriage to Jessica Simpson.

Minnillo helped pick the night’s winning design: a pale yellow chiffon ‘Retro Cocktail Dress’ designed by Patricia Samaniego. “Her inspiration was Vegas,” said Minnillo. “One of the sexiest things on a woman’s body is her back and her shoulders … That’s why I love her dress. It is very flowy and comfortable in the front and the back is exposed. The legs are open and exposed.”

If Vanessa is half as good with kids as she is with fashion, we have no doubt she’ll be a better mother than that of Jayden James, who will remain nameless. And bald.
