"Although Katherine was busy promoting her book in the beginning of her pregnancy, she now has time to be at home and get things ready for when the new addition arrives," the source said, adding, "Chris is so excited."

While neither party has commented on the reports, it sounds like the couple has been thinking about taking the next step in their relationship for some time now.
