Reggie Bush and Lilit Agavyan expecting their first child

Congratulations are in order for Reggie Bush and his girlfriend Lilit Avagyan, because the couple is expecting their first child together. The Miami Dolphins football pro confirmed the news on a Florida radio station.

"I have a little one on the way," Bush tells the radio hosts when they ask if congratulations are in order. "We're pretty excited. We haven't found out if it's a boy or a girl yet."

Bush, who dated Kim Kardashian for three years before splitting in 2010, says he's hoping for a boy because he'll head "straight to the gun shop to buy some guns" if he ends up having a girl.

"We can't wait," Bush says of the happy news. "It's the opportunity to bring in a new life and raise a child. I think that's the most special gift to a man and to a woman. So, I look forward to it and to building a family."

But a baby isn't the only soon-to-be new addition to the Bush-Avagyan household. "On top of that, we went and got two puppies yesterday," he said, laughing. "We're packing the house already."
