We are officially on baby bump watch, people!

Kate Winslet has confirmed that she is expecting her first baby with husband Ned Rocknroll!

The actress already has 12-year-old Mia and 9-year-old Joe, and since they have regular names, we’re guessing this new addition will too.

Then again, her husband’s name is Rocknroll, so you have to try and play on that, right? RIGHT?!

Whatever moniker they choose, we are just over the moon for these two and hope for a healthy, happy baby!

They never thought they'd be on a boat! On a big blue, watery road!

But the brilliant Sam Mendes has a way of making these things happen!

The Skyfall director was spotted taking his son Joe Alfie for a relaxing boat ride and island walk in the Caribbean.

Now that Joe has been on a boat, he knows how mom Kate Winslet felt when she was making Titanic!

Though he still doesn't know why Leonardo DiCaprio couldn't have climbed up on that raft with her!

And that's why we love Kate Winslet.

The celeb mum cares more about her kids and being a mom than about being the most famous Hollywood actress.

The funny thing is that she's managed to be one of the most successful actresses while also being an amazing mother to her two children, as well as being an advocate for children around the world.

The Academy Award winning actress is on a mission to improve the lives of kids with autism and giving parents hope.

She has a new book called The Golden Hat: Talking Back to Autism, which includes a series of celeb portraits wearing a trilby hat and saying whatever comes to their mind while wearing the hat.

All proceeds from the book go to Kate's charity, The Golden Hat Foundation, which focuses on children with autism and aims to find ways to help their parents.

In the latest issue of Ladies Home Journal, Kate talks about how charity has impacted her life:

ATTN: all lazy parents!

Good news — you don't have to trouble yourself with the dreadful task of reading to your kids anymore!

There are several Hollywood stars who are willing to do it for you!

Nicole Kidman and her BFF Naomi Watts are just two of the the silky voiced celebs lending their reading skills to a new series of audio books to send little listeners to sleep.

Kidman will read Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse while Watts will read Summer by Edith Wharton.

The Aussie actresses aren't the only celebs on a mission to get your kids to pass out. Samuel L Jackson is recoding a reading of Go the F**k to Sleep Chester Himes' A Rage in Harlem.

But that's not all! Other actors signed on for Audible.com's bed time story project include: Kate Winslet, Anne Hathaway, Dustin Hoffman, Jennifer Connolly, Colin Firth, Meg Ryan, Susan Sarandon and Kim Basinger.

We're just glad some of these actors are finally realizing their talent to put people to sleep!

It's hard for single parents to spend any of their valuable time looking for a mate.

You gots work, bills and (almost forgot) RAISING A PERSON on your to-do list, so it's completely understandable.

Here are 5 places you can meet someone that won't take too much time out of your already busy life:

1) The Gym
If you're both there at the same time, it means your schedules sync up! Plus, you get to look while working on yourself!!

2) The Playground
If your kids become friends you clearly have something in common! It worked for Kate Winslet in Little Children. Just be sure you're BOTH single.

3) Free Outdoor Events
Wherever you live, you’ll likely find that there are free events, like a music concert or a movie, at a local park.

4) Online
Get all your baggage out there before you even meet. You're a parent, you don't have time for the initial BS questions.

5) The Grocery Store
It’s cliche for a reason! What a person buys says a lot about them. Do they drink, eat meat, need adult diapers? Check their cart and see!
