Brandon Flowers‘ garden continues to grow — he and wife Tana are expecting their third child, his rep confirms to PEOPLE.

The Killers frontman — who’s just released his first solo record, Flamingo — and Tana are already parents to sons Gunnar, 13 months, and Ammon, 3.

Although he loves living the life of a rock star, Flowers, 29, expects to cut back on touring as his children grow older.

“I love music, but I want to spend more time with my children,” he recently told The Daily Mail. “I’d like to be around when they start school.”

The question of whether it’s a baby bump or a costume has been answered: “Penélope is 4½-months pregnant,” reps for Penélope Cruz and husband Javier Bardem confirm.

Photos of Cruz, 36, on the set of her upcoming movie, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, had sparked buzz that the recently married actress was expecting.

Cruz was snapped in Puerto Rico sporting a flowing top and a possible bump.

Will Ferrell Doesn’t Find Diaper Changing Funny

Will Ferrell is a hands-on dad with his three sons. But there’s just one thing he really won’t do: changing the dirty diapers.

“I refuse to do it,” he tells PEOPLE at the Toronto International Film Festival premiere of his dark comedy Everything Must Go. “I let my wife do it. I’m not so good with it.”

It’s nighttime at the Ferrell house, with wife Viveca Paulin and sons Magnus, 6½, Mattias, 3½, and Axel, 7 months, where the actor steps up. The comedian, 43, says he loves reading to his boys and tucking them into bed.

“It’s pretty simple at our house: it’s dinner, bath time, bedtime stories and then bed,” he says. “I read to them and do the funny voices. They seem to like it.”

Sacha Baron Cohen & Isla Fisher Step Out with New Addition

Xposure

Who’s that strolling in London Friday with Sacha Baron Cohen, Isla Fisher and 2½-year-old daughter Olive?

It seems as though the trio has welcomed the latest addition to their family, although a rep for the actress says they likely won’t be commenting on the birth of the new baby.

The intensely private pair prefer it that way, having kept quiet about the impending arrival of their second child as well as their March nuptials.

We last spotted Fisher, 34, and Olive out and about in Los Angeles at the end of May, but the actress and husband Baron Cohen, 38, have managed to stay undercover since!

BabyBjorn Debuts Organic Comfort Carrier

Courtesy of BabyBjorn

There’s a new BabyBjorn in town — the Organic Comfort Carrier ($199).

Not only is it made of 100 percent organic cotton, but it’s ideal for carrying older or bigger babies because the waist belt is wider and super-padded.

Plus, the adjustable shoulder straps put the weight onto your hips and shoulders, instead of your back, so you can carry a heavier baby for a longer period of time.

For more comfort, this new carrier offers two easy-to-adjust leg positions: wide and normal.

You can use both when carrying your child facing inward, but it’s best to use the normal leg position when you’re carrying baby facing outward.

Another feature we liked is that your child stays secure, even if you unhook the belt. Designed for children aged 3 months to 2 years, it also comes with an attachable organic bib.
