On December 25th, children all over the world woke up, hoping that Santa Claus brought them a

For months, our lives have been consumed by The Kylie Jenner Pregnancy Watch. The 20-year-old reality TV star is dating rapper
, and she's dropped more hints that she's knocked up than he's dropped the adlib "Straight up!" But sadly, we've received no official confirmation. After
her pregnancy on Instagram, we hoped that Kylie would be next, and the family Christmas photo seemed like the perfect opportunity. Alas, their long-awaited
featured every Kardashian in a white top and denim besides Kylie. "Is Kylie in the tree?" fans wondered on Twitter.

Luckily, fans of the Kardashian-Jenner clan aren't going to sit idly by. They're determined to 'keep up,' and now their vigilance may have paid off. On Twitter, a photo has been circulating that appears to show Kylie at a private party, sporting the elusive baby bump. It's a Christmas miracle! At least, it might be. Some people speculate that the grainy image may have been Photoshopped - or maybe Kylie just had a big Christmas dinner. (Hey, we all gain a few pounds over the holidays.)

"Honestly God bless who ever papped this photo of pregnant Kylie Jenner bcus now it can end this ridiculousness. ALSO its kinda cute that she's keeping this sacred and precious, shows she's really taking it seriously. She doesn't owe any of us any information about her baby."
So far Kylie hasn't commented on the photo, or the human being that is definitely growing inside of her, but another conspiracy theory has taken the Internet by storm.

On the new issue of Love Magazine, Kylie graces the cover, which, of course, does not show anything close to the "baby bump" region. (Love Magazine? More like Disappointment Magazine.) The photo is a glamorous close-up of Kylie's face, cupped in her hands, wearing a festive red sweater. The picture was taken by her sister, Kendall, and the interview was conducted by her mother, Kim. Reportedly, the shoot only included her immediate family and longtime family hairstylist,
Andrew Fitzsimons. Why keep such a closed set, unless she has something to hide?

As one fan argued on Twitter, "Kendall took this photo for the cover because Kylie won’t do shoots with other people in case they leak her pregnancy!!"

With the year coming to an end, we can only hope that when the ball drops in Times Square,
will drop the big news, and confirm that she's pregnant. It'll give us one more reason to celebrate on New Year's Eve, as we blow party poppers and sip champagne. Also, then we can start 2018 fresh, ending the Kylie Jenner Pregnancy Watch, and beginning the Kylie Jenner Baby Watch. Come on, Kylie! Don't leave us hanging! We want a present, not another lump of coal.
