"Melissa Rycroft has disclosed that she and husband Tye Strickland are to spend Christmas with their extended family. Speaking to Celebrity Baby Scoop, the former Dancing With The Stars contestant revealed that the close proximity of their respective parents&amp;#039; homes will make this holiday more enjoyable for the pair. &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;re going to be home, we&amp;#039;ll be in Dallas this year. Because our parents live about 10 miles away from each other, we can make the rounds and see both sides,&amp;quot; she noted. Rycroft, who is expecting a baby with Strickland, added that she and her spouse plan to hold off on establishing their own festive traditions until their child is born. She explained: &amp;quot;Next year, we&amp;#039;ll be starting some new traditions because we&amp;#039;ll be the ones with the little bundle and people will probably be coming to us instead of us coming to them. This is a scary thought in and of itself because I don&amp;#039;t know how to cook and I&amp;#039;ll be responsible for the holiday meals.&amp;quot; The couple&amp;#039;s first child is due in February.
