Kanye West dropped a bombshell on stage last night when he revealed that he and girlfriend Kim Kardashian are expecting a baby. Now the overjoyed mother-to-be is confirming the news on her blog in an entry called “New Year, New Beginnings.” While she is looking forward to starting a family, Kim also wished that her late father, Robert Kardashian, and Kanye’s mother, Dr. Donda West, were there to share the special moment with them.

The public weren’t the only ones caught off guard by the announcement. Kim herself had “no idea” Kanye was going to reveal the news during his show at Revel in Atlantic City, but he was caught up in the moment because their family and friends were in attendance.

According to TMZ, the baby was conceived in October during Kim and Kanye’s trip to Italy to celebrate Kim’s 32nd birthday. She is about 12 weeks pregnant.
