IS KIM K COMPETING WITH HER EX, REGGIE BUSH?

Miami Dolphins runningback, Reggie Bush, revealed that rumors of him becoming are father are indeed true.  He revealed,  "I have a little one on the way. We're pretty excited. We haven't found out if its a boy or a girl.  It's an opportunity to raise a child. That's the most special gift for a man and a woman."  Rumor this week was that Bush’s galpal, Lilit Avagyan, is about 12 weeks along. Avagyan is a dead-ringer for Bush’s former longtime squeeze Kim Kardashian who, incidentally, is filming a new reality series in Miami. While Bush was trying hard to keep his Avagyan relationship a secret, Gossip Extra first busted the couple in July when it first ran photos of the lovebirds in Paris. So the couple conceived either in Paris or on their summer trip through Europe. On the show, Bush said he doesn’t know the gender of the baby. “It doesn’t matter if it’s a boy or a girl,” Bush said. “But if it’s a girl and she looks anything like her mom, we’re all in trouble.” Reggie said, "I'm hoping for a boy because if its a girl I'm going straight to the gun shop to buy some guns." And isn’t it ironic that Reggie's ex Kim K. & her new boyfriend Kanye West are supposedly shopping for a $10 mill mansion together...in Miami where Kim's shooting her next reality show.  The two visited 4 homes yesterday.  The news about house shopping in Miami conveniently hit certain media sites the day after the rumors came out of Reggie expecting a baby. Hmmm….
