When Niki Taylor‘s daughter Ciel sees her mom each day, she points and says excitedly: “Baby inside! Baby inside! Mom has to go to the doctor to get it out!”

Now 4½ months pregnant, Taylor, 36, is as excited as the 2-year-old over the news that she and race car driver husband Burney Lamar, 30, will welcome another child this fall.

“Burney is the best father, and I am so blessed to be expecting again,” Taylor tells PEOPLE while in Miami’s Design District Thursday to shoot her advertising campaign as the face of Opustone Natural Stone products.

And they’re off!

After sightseeing with the family on Father’s Day, John Travolta and his crew — wife Kelly Preston, daughter Ella Bleu, 11, and 7-month-old son Benjamin Hunter Kaleo — stick together while leaving the Ritz Hotel in Paris on Thursday.

Looking great, Preston, 48, credits her quick bounce back after baby to one thing: breastfeeding.

“I haven’t been working out. At all,” she said.

“I’ve been lucky because I’ve been breastfeeding so that’s really helped me lose the weight. That really is the secret.”

It didn’t take much to convince Gwen Stefani to head out on tour again with No Doubt in 2009.

Despite recently having come off her solo tour and welcoming her second son — Zuma Nesta Rock, now 2½ — with husband Gavin Rossdale, Stefani was ready to reconnect with her fans.

“I came off [my solo] tour, got pregnant that month with Zuma, and then we started writing as a band and nothing was happening,” the songstress, 41, tells Stylist.

“It was all just too much output — even kids were coming out of me! Harajuku girls and clothing lines, how could I give any more?”

However, Stefani wasn’t the only one to realize that she needed a break.
