Kristen Bell's husband Dax Shepard has to help her put her shoes on because of her growing baby bump.
The 34-year-old actress, who is expecting her second child, admits her bulging belly has stopped her from being able to reach her feet to put her footwear on.
Taking to her Twitter account last night (01.10.14) as she was travelling to the premiere of Dax's new movie 'The Judge' in Los Angeles, she said: "The bad news: u can no longer reach your feet. The good news: u have a nice hubby who'll help put on your shoes. (sic)."
The couple - who also have 18-month-old daughter Lincoln together - have struggled to think of a name for their upcoming arrival, but admit they recently had a "bit of a breakthrough" and have settled on a moniker.
Speaking to PEOPLE, Kristen said: "We've settled on one [a name], thankfully. It's a lot of pressure, especially because we felt 'Lincoln' was so perfect."
Meanwhile, Dax, 39, recently got a bell tattooed onto his left finger, instead of a wedding band, to represent his beautiful wife and had the whole family's initials placed in the centre of the little black inking.
However, it seems the hunk won't have any issues going back to the parlour to add his unborn baby's initial into the bell as he insists the tattoo didn't hurt.
Speaking about his new inking, he explained: "Actually, this was so pain free that it was actually relaxing to the point where I said to my guy, 'Do people regularly fall asleep when you do this?' And he said, 'Yeah, pretty often.' I felt myself drifting off."

Nick Jonas has a "man crush" on Daniel Craig.
The 22-year-old singer admits he admires the 46-year-old hunk - who plays fictional British secret agent James Bond 007 - and has nothing but praise for him.
When asked who his favourite male actor is, he told E News: "Daniel Craig! That's my man crush for sure. Daniel Craig. He's James Bond. He's the best.
"I'm a huge James Bond fan. I think he's a badass and I think he killed it in all his movies. Me and all my buddies, he's our guy."
Nick isn't the only one to have an obsession with Daniel as Karen Gillan admitted last month she wants to become a Bond baddie and lick the star's face.
She said: "I just want to lick [Daniel Craig's] face."
The 26-year-old actress - who plays Nebula in 'Guardians of the Galaxy' - has even come up with a plan to help her get closer to Daniel as she believes becoming a villain allows her to become a "face licker."
She added: "In the movie ['Guardians of the Galaxy'] I play Nebula, the female villain. She's really sadistic.
"One time, I had a man in a headlock, and then I just decided that Nebula would lick his face. I feel like she's a face licker."

Charlie Sheen has claimed a "bad reaction" to laughing gas caused an altercation with his dentist last week.
The 'Anger Management' star is under investigation after he allegedly threatened his dentist with a knife while undergoing surgery on an abscess, but he has denied any weapons were involved in the incident.
Charlie's representative, Jeff Ballard, told the MailOnline: "Charlie went to the dentist and had a bad reaction to the nitrous oxide which the dentist administered to him. There was no knife involved and there were no illegal drugs involved as well."
The former 'Two and a Half Men' star reportedly went "insane" and was flailing his arms when a technician placed a mask over his face to administer nitrous oxide, so she left the room and his bodyguard entered.
Following a "lot of commotion", Charlie's dentist - who had also been in the room along with an oral surgeon - left the room and told the technician his famous patient had gone after him with a knife, but he was unhurt.
The technician also reported to officers that Charlie's bodyguard had told the dentist the 49-year-old star was "high on rock cocaine" at the time of the altercation.
Charlie could face charges of possible battery against the technician and felony assault with a deadly weapon for the alleged knife attack on the dentist.
However, police are keen to interview the actor and the dentist before sending the case to the district attorney's office, who will decide whether or not to prosecute.

Selena Gomez doesn't think she handles fame "well."
The 22-year-old singer - who shot into the limelight at the age of 14 on 'Wizards of Waverly Place' - believes the past 12 months have been a vital growing period for her after she spent three weeks in rehab in January and bought her own property earlier this year.
Speaking to Into the Gloss, she said: "It's been such a transitional year for me - I moved out of my parents' house this year and into my own place.
"Sometimes, I'll be honest, I don't handle all of this as well as people think, so it's been important to really figure out what makes me feel grounded."
However, the 'Spring Breakers' star insists she's really grateful for the opportunities she's been given, even though she didn't realise it when she was younger.
She added: "The older I get, the prouder I am to be a woman in this industry."
She added: "When I was younger and running around all the time on tour, I don't think I took the time to notice how being a woman in my position is really a gift.
"I want to make sure I utilise all that power...All the stuff that I've been living [has] been beautiful and awkward and authentic."

Jennifer Garner had head lice when she first met George Clooney.
The 42-year-old actress - who has children Violet, eight, Seraphina, five, and Samuel, two, with husband Ben Affleck - had been trying to rid her family of the pesky parasites ones evening when her husband insisted they attend a Hollywood party and she admits the first impression she gave the 'Monuments Men' star wasn't great because she gave off a distinctive pungent smell from the chemical treatment she had put on her hair.
She recalled: "We all got lice. It's making me itchy just to talk about it. This was years ago.
"They have people like the Lice Lady, and they come over and they comb painstakingly through your hair, and then they put something on your hair...It looks like the put Crisco in your hair but you smell a little bit like a mixture of sulfur and rosemary. And you do it everyday for a month!
"Ben had gone early and he'd showered. He came out and he said, 'Hey, um, there's a party. I wanna go. Let's go.' And I said, 'I can't. I need to shower.' I mean, I'm in, like, cargo pants. I'm nasty in a thousand [ways]. He's like, 'Come on! I mean, we have a babysitter. I want you to come with me.'
"So, I get in the car and I go with him because he acted like I was going to be high maintenance. I don't ever want to be called high maintenance. I am not a high maintenance chick! So I'm like, 'What's the big deal? No one's gonna notice.
"We show up and the first person I see is George Clooney, and I'd never met George Clooney. I was kind of like, 'Ah, he's so handsome! Like, oh, my God!' So, I see him and I walk up to him and I'm chatting with him, just trying to act like it's cool...and I can see that he smells me, you know? But he's trying to be polite."
And the 'Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day' star jokingly claimed her lice problem was the reason why she and her husband weren't at George's wedding to Amal Alamuddin in Venice, Italy, over the weekend.
Speaking to talk show host Jimmy Fallon, she laughed: "So, anyway, people keep asking why we weren't at George's wedding and we were both 'working' but I think he didn't want Licey there. He's like, 'No, we don't need the Afflecks. We're OK!' "

Sir Michael Caine no longer gets drunk.
The 81-year-old actor hasn't got inebriated for years because he is too much of a "control freak" to enjoy the experience.
During his 'A Night Out With... Sir Michael Caine' show at the Royal Albert Hall in London on Wednesday night (01.10.14), he revealed: "I'm a control freak. That's why I never get drunk. I've been drunk, but that was before I knew I was a control freak. I suppose it's just me, it's who I am. I love to be outside and I love to be casting an eye over everything."
The show featured Caine being quizzed by Jonathan Ross about his career and the retrospective included performances of incidental music and theme songs from the actor's impressive filmography by the London Symphony Orchestra.
Joss Stone took to the stage to sing 'Alfie' from the film of the same name and Caine's long-time friend Quincy Jones conducted the orchestra when music from 'The Italian Job' - the movie the super-producer scored - was performed.
Stars in the sold-out audience included Jerry Hall, Simon Pegg, David Walliams, the Oscar winner's wife Shakira and his friend Sir Roger Moore.
Speaking on the red carpet beforehand, Caine insisted he wasn't nervous and was just happy the event had sold-out because all the money raised was going to the NSPCC charity to help disadvantaged children.
The 'Zulu' star - who has revealed he was mistreated as a young boy when he was evacuated from London and separated from his mother during World War II - told BANG Showbiz: "No I'm not nervous about this, they're not paying me and they can't fire me!
"I'm doing it for the NSPCC, my favourite charity, it's a charity I love and I know I'm helping children by doing something for them. I've given more money to this charity than any other. I think it's amazing that anyone turned up and we sold all the tickets! When they told me it was the Royal Albert Hall, I thought, 'Oh my God!' It's not like playing at a theatre where there's a few hundred seats, there's 6,000 seats in there. Anyway we sold the seats and we'll make a load of money for charity which is why we're here."
When asked how he felt to be a national treasure in Britain, he laughed: "Well, you don't know what to do if you're a national treasure. There are no restaurants you can go to that are just for national treasures! There's no course in it. I just live my life, that's all."

Kris Jenner would do anything for her children.
The showbiz matriarch - who has kids Khloe, Kourtney, Kim and Rob Kardashian with late ex-husband Robert Kardashian and Kendall and Kylie Jenner with estranged spouse Bruce Jenner - finds it "hurtful" when her parenting skills are criticised and even though she is also her children's manager, she says being their mother will always come first.
Speaking in a forthcoming episode of 'Beyond Candid With Giuliana', she said: "As hurtful as it might be, no one knows what's going on.
"When someone starts criticising your role and your ability to be a good mom. I prided myself my entire life...my most important role in my life is being a mom. There's nothing I wouldn't do for my kids."
And the 58-year-old star isn't immune to criticism from her own family, admitting she gets "tortured" by her daughters over the way she treats their brother.
She said: "I often get tortured by Kourtney, Kimberley and Khloe about it, and Kendall and Kylie, because they think I baby Rob."
The family shot to fame on reality show 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' and Kris admits she has always advised her loved ones not to read what people say about them online, insisting much of what is published is "absolute lies".
She said: "One of the things that I told the kids when we first started was don't get on the internet, don't read the crap out there, there's a lot of haters.
"At some point, you can't control what really ignorant, nasty people are going to say about a family that they really nothing about personally. 99.9% of the stuff that's printed is absolute lies."
Elsewhere in the interview, Kris wept as she spoke about her ex-husband Robert's death, admitting his passing in 2003 was "probably the worst thing that I've ever been through".
She added: "To watch my kids have to suffer through it was horrible, a horrible experience."

Robert Downey Jr has suggested he will continue to play the role of Iron Man in the Marvel films.
The 49-year-old is contractually obliged to play the iconic character in 'Avengers: Age of Ultron' - which he's already completed filming - as well as another 'Avengers' flick.
And Downey Jr hinted he will continue to play the role thereafter, telling The Hollywood Reporter: "I'm sure we'll ride that thing. You've got to surf that all the way in to shore."
He added: "I think I was at the forefront of something that was coming into being, and I think it has carried me as much as I have informed it.
"That's the healthy way to look at it. It's so easy to become inflated by the successes, but what they really are are long, strong trends. It's just another wave."
Downey Jr assumed the role of Tony Stark - who is more commonly known as Iron Man - for the first time in 2008.
He has since appeared in two additional 'Iron Man' movies, grossing more than $2 billion worldwide.
However, in an interview conducted with Variety last month, Downey Jr was asked whether there are plans to make a fourth 'Iron Man' movie and he said: "There isn't one in the pipe. No, there's no plan for a fourth Iron Man."

The movie icon is very proud of his work in his three Batman films because they introduced him to a whole new generation of fans.
He said: "There's a whole generation of kids who know who I am because of Batman. I've gone from Alfie to Alfred. I've got new fans."
Caine was speaking before he appeared at The Royal Albert Hall in London on Wednesday night (01.10.14) for 'A Night Out With... Sir Michael Caine', a retrospective of his career hosted by Jonathan Ross to raise money for the NSPCC charity.
During the Q&A, the movie legend revealed Nolan personally delivered the script for 'Batman Begins' to his house and wouldn't leave until he read his part as Alfred.
The actor recalled: "It's amazing when you're an actor, things happen. One Sunday morning there's a knock at the door, and there's a guy standing there who I've never met and I don't recognise and he's holding a script and he says, 'I've got a script for you.' So I said, 'OK, thank you very much.' He goes, 'Can I come in and talk to you.' I thought he was just delivering it, but I suddenly got a feeling this guy was quite important. So he comes in and introduces himself and he's got the script for the first Batman. 'I want you to play the butler,' he tells me. I said, 'So what do I say? Dinner is served? Would you like a beverage with that?' He says, 'No it's better than that Michael.'
"He's a very secretive director. So I said, 'OK leave it with me, and I'll get my driver to send it back to you tomorrow.' He said, 'No, I want you to read it now. I'll wait and you tell me if you like it.' And of course it was an incredible part, of Alfred the butler. He wasn't just a butler he was Batman's foster father. And so began a thing with Christopher."
Michael Caine: Affleck will be great as Batman
Sir Michael Caine thinks Ben Affleck will do "very well" playing Batman.
The 81-year-old actor - who portrayed butler Alfred Pennyworth opposite Christian Bale in Christopher Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy - is sure Affleck will do The Caped Crusader character proud in new movie 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice'.
When asked how he thought Affleck would do in the superhero role, Caine said: "I think he's going to do very well because it's a different outlook and he's a very good actor, Ben Affleck is a wonderful actor."
Caine is so sure the 'Man of Steel' sequel will be great he's going to go to the cinema to watch it.
He added to BANG Showbiz: "I think it will be a really interesting film, I'll definitely go and watch it."
