When her pregnancy was first announced, Kim said she would not show the birth, “I’m going to keep that private,” but both Khloe and Kim have allowed cameras to follow their fertility struggles.

Khloe married NBA player Lamar Odom in 2009. The couple have not only battled to have children, but Odom’s career has come under harsh scrutiny. Despite being named the NBA’s Sixth Man of the Year in 2011, Odom was released from the Dallas Mavericks last season and is now only averaging 3.7 points a game in with the LA Clippers. the series Khloe and Lamar was pulled off E! in an effort for Odom to focus on his career… and hopefully to start a family!

The 14-year veteran is said to be wanting to focus on his basketball career after an embarrassing 2012 season, which many blame on distractions from the reality show and his wife’s family. Odom is ineligible to play for another team this season after being released by the Dallas Mavericks but can sign elsewhere this offseason. Averaging just 6-points a game, it is a far cry from when Odom was the 2011 NBA Sixth Man of the Year.

E! is hoping to convince Kardashian and Odom to reconsider. Just last week, it was announced that the Kardashian family signed the biggest deal in reality television history, worth a reported $40 million for three years. Despite the contract, Kardashian and Odom will only make occasional appearances on “Keeping Up With The Kardashians.” Though it is reported, Odom has hired a team of personal trainers to get him back into shape, he was photographed yesterday teaching sister-in-law Kim how to play basketball for scenes for the news season of “Keeping Up With The Kardashians.”

In a  statement to ESPNDallas.com Odom said: “The Mavericks and I have mutually agreed that it’s in the best interest of both parties for me to step away from the team. I’m sorry that things didn’t work out better for both of us, but I wish the Mavs’ organization, my teammates and Dallas fans nothing but continued success in the defense of their championship.”

Because Odom was still on the roster at the March 15 trade deadline, he is ineligible to play for another NBA team this season. However, instead of releasing Odom Mavericks are making him inactive. The Mavericks owe Odom $8.2 million for the 2012 and 2013 season, and hope to dump some of his contract by trading him in the offseason.

But it may be difficult to find another team willing to take a chance on the 13-year veteran. Last month, even head coach Rick Carisle called out Odom’s commitment, “Our fans want to know that Lamar’s in. Our players want to know that Lamar’s in. It’s not about how many points he’s scoring or rebounds … Our fans, our players want to see the guy playing like his pants are on fire and we haven’t seen that so far and that’s got to change.”

The Nets made the cut, after the bride-to-be had to disinvite 50 guests at the last minute because of over crowding. The fire department deemed the venue unsafe with guests, TV equipment and production crew on location. E! is filming the Kardashian-Humphries wedding in a four hour-two part TV special.

Other sports celebrities who made the guest-list are Venus and Serena Williams, Carmelo Anthony (Mr. La La Vazquez) and brother-in-law Lamar Odom. However, it appears as though Reggie Bush’s invite was lost in the mail!

Odom already has three kids, ages 12, 8 and 5, with former girlfriend Liza Morales.
Kardashian and Odom have been married since September 2009 and are set to have their own reality show on E! Kardashian’s sister Kim has said she also want to have her New Jersey Nets boyfriend Kris Humphries’ babies…

When pregnancy rumors have come up with the past, Kardashian has always denied claims saying she is “just fat,” but when asked this time around her rep had no comment. The Page Six source also said Kardashian “has been hiding a tell-tale bump behind flowing dresses and oversized handbags.”

While the reality show timing does lead one to assume their may be a bun in the oven, Kardashian debuted her new red hair at the People’s Choice Awards, which leads others to say Kardashian is not pregnant since women are advised not to dye their hair during pregnancy.

Whether or not Khloe and Lamar are having a baby I wonder if the baby’s name will start with a “K”?

The couple have been married since last September when they surprised fans by announcing their engagement after three-weeks of dating. In the past, Kardashian has denied rumors that her and Odom were having their own reality show. If this doesn’t work out for them, Khole can always go on “Basketball Wives.”

Well if this doesn’t say Merry Christmas I don’t know what does. Our favorite jersey chasers Kim and Khloe, along with Lamar Odom and the rest of Kardashian klan wish you a happy holiday season! Maybe next year Kris Humphries can make the cut!
