Gisele Bündchen is expecting and “ecstatic,” sources tell PEOPLE. She is due early next year.

Speculation has grown since pictures showing the supermodel in Brazil this week surfaced showing what seems to be a perceptible bump. Gisele and New England Patriots quarterback husband Tom Brady were married twice this spring – first in a ceremony in Los Angeles Feb. 26, then exchanging vows before friends in early April at Gisele’s Costa Rica home.

“Gisele will be an excellent mother,” a source tells PEOPLE. “She’s always wanted kids.” Reps for Gisele reached by PEOPLE for confirmation refused to comment.

“Family is everything,” Gisele, who turns 29 next month, told PEOPLE two weeks ago. “I think family is the base to everything. I think that is one of the things I’m most grateful for. I have a lot to be grateful for but I think that’s definitely number one.”

Another source close to the couple says, “You know Gisele and Tom are just enjoying themselves, being married and just doing their thing … Gisele has been talking about it with friends. She says she’s ready for a family.”

This is her first child; Tom has a son, 21-month-old John Edward Thomas, with ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan.

There’s another NASCAR baby on the way — one that’s due to arrive “pretty soon.” Driver Matt Kenseth and his wife Katie are expecting their first child together in July. “We’ll find out when you guys do, I guess,” Matt laughs about their choice of a delivery surprise. “Actually, I hope I’ll know a little while before you guys do.”

“There aren’t many surprises left in life, so we’re going to wait to find out. We talked about it [and] we don’t really want to find out. Neither of us really cares if it’s a girl or a boy. If it’s healthy, that’s all we really care about.”

The Daytona 500 winner knows that he “can’t really control when the baby comes that much, so I’m just going to kind of play it by ear.” He hopes the baby will makes his or her debut on a Monday, rather than a race day because “I haven’t made any plans [for a relief driver] yet.”

Matt, 37, and Katie were married December 4, 2000. The new baby will join Matt’s 16-year-old son, Ross, from a previous relationship.
