From People:

The couple, who were first linked late last year, “bought a beautiful country home” in Bedford, N.Y., a source tells PEOPLE.

And it’s not too shabby. “The house cost more than $2 million,” the source said of the property.

So it’s serious, then, huh? These two are settling down, walking dogs together, taking self pictures, and now they’re purchasing real estate together. I guess it’s a good thing. Now they can stop the constant displays of public affection (not that I personally mind; I think it’s rather cute), but for the sake of sad, sad Scarlett Johansson, it’s probably better that they have four walls to hide behind and call a home so they can do what they feel is necessary to further their blossoming love. Until Sean Penn realizes the error of his ways and invites girlfriend back into his home, his life, and by virtue, his pants, then she’s going to be treading in some pretty sensitive waters. Poor girl.

Wonder how long it’s going to be ’til we hear about an engagement ring.

I don’t want to be gross, but I actually threw up in my mouth just after I typed that headline. Like, I finished typing out “cute couple” and the next thing I knew, I had vomit inside of my mouth. Whether it’s from the thought of those lovebird assholes, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, or from the amount of discounted Christmas candy I’ve had today, we may never know.

But ok, for real, these crazy kids are kind of adorable, and I don’t get it. When they’re apart, they’re a couple of my least favorite celebrities: I’ve always thought, despite popular opinion, that Ryan has one of the biggest douchefaces known to man, and I don’t think I actually need to list any reasons for disliking Blake. But when their powers unite … I don’t hate it.

Especially if it involves cupcakes:

It was a crisp 35 degrees in Vancouver on December 20. So naturally, Blake Lively was all bundled up while picking out a birthday cake with her new boyfriend, Ryan Reynolds, for his dad at Original Cupcakes. But the Gossip Girl star really warmed up when the Canada native selected a few special treats just for her.

“The salesperson told them Jay-Z had come in a few days earlier and bought an eggnog cupcake for Beyonce,” a source tells Us, “So Ryan ordered six of them for Blake!”

That kind of simple romantic gesture is one way the actor, 35, has won over Blake after two months of dating. And sources say Lively, 24, is just as giving.

“She’s making an equal, is not greater, effort to make Ryan happy,” says one insider of the couple. Indeed, a caring girlfriend who whips up homemade dinners and prefers home-movie nights to premieres seems to be an ideal antidote for Reynolds after his rocky marriage to Scarlett Johansson.

“Scarlett treated Ryan badly, so he loves the comfort that Blake provides,” says the source. “It’s like, ‘You were on the cover of Vogue and you want to cook me dinner? Yes, please!’”

While in Vancouver, a Reynolds family dinner was on the itinerary, and a trip to the Granville Island Public Market, where Lively bonded with Reynolds’ mom, Tammy. “Blake and Ryan held hands and Tammy had her hand on Blake’s back as they walked around,” says an eyewitness. “They laughed all the way to the car – and Blake let Tammy have the front seat!”

The duo is making the most of their holiday time together – “They love to sit at home and cuddle,” adds the insider. “Those two are over-the-moon in love.”

See what I mean? Despite the ridiculous “Blake let Tammy have the front seat,” that sounds like an adorable little story, doesn’t it? Ryan buys Blake cupcakes and then they go home and cuddle. Beautiful. Plus, that little catty comment about how Scarlett Johansson treating Ryan badly is just icing on the cake. I love it.

What do you guys think? Are Blake and Ryan a cute little couple, or are they sickening with their gooey, sappy love?

I don’t know how you guys feel, but whenever I see Blake Lively, I just kind of roll my eyes and shake my head (unless she’s naked). The girl is so desperate for more fame. It doesn’t matter who it is – if they’ve had three more minutes of fame than she has had with her Big Deal Gossip Girl contract, she’s latched onto them like the leeches that stuck to my ass one fine summer day at the crick when I was sliding down slimy rocks and into eight inches of rock- and twig-ridden waters.

These photos are from a recent vacation wherein Ryan Reynolds thought it’d finally be OK to air out Leonardo DiCaprio’s sloppy seconds (because really, I don’t think there was any true transition between boning Leo and boning Ryan) and let the world know that this is what they’re doing behind closed doors in Boston, too. That, or, I don’t know. Maybe he thinks that if he does what she wants and goes public with the relationship that he’ll get a blowjob out of the deal. The things people will do for free oral sex, you know?

Here’s a photo of Blake Lively. Can you find her in the crowd? Oh, I’ll just tell you: she’s the one in the gigantic coat and the Incognito Hat. Man! I never realized you could cover that much of your face with your own hair. I’ve gotta learn that trick.

According to Us, Ryan Reynolds walked Blake to the van that took her to the Boston train station. And there she is now, hoping to God nobody recognizes her. How chivalrous, Ryan Reynolds!

Gee, I wonder why these two are being so surreptitious. It couldn’t possibly be because Scarlett Johansson is ridiculously sad about her divorce from Reynolds, could it? (Watch your back, Blake—that girl will cut you.)

Anyway. Sorry, ScarJo, but it really could be worse. Like, a lot worse. At least your ex is sorta trying to keep his new romance under wraps, y’know?

Today is Ryan Reynolds‘ birthday, and guess who’s celebrating? Me! I am! I have a cake and a party hat and this plaintive-sounding party kazoo and everything. I’m all ready. Happy 35th birthday, Ryan!

Wait. Who’s that? Who’s that anonymous blonde who flew to Boston to hang out with Ryan all Birthday Weekend long? Oh, no. It’s Blake Lively! Gee, she sure got over her last relationship pretty quickly.

Hmph. According to Radar, this is the third weekend in a row the pair have been spied together. I’d never had strong feelings about Blake Lively before—although I’ve been impressed, admittedly, by her demonstrative moxie—but I recently slept through Green Lantern, and I’m beginning to think this girl is the worst. Ugh.

Plus, this particular celebrity pairing is soooooo obvious. Truth is, I was perfectly content believing Ryan Reynolds and Charlize Theron were an item. FROM CHARLIZE TO THIS? RYAN, HOW DARE YOU.

“They’re disappointed when I’m not Ryan Reynolds. ‘Oh can I get my picture with you?’ And you’re like, sure, and they’re like, ‘I thought you were more muscley.’ No. ‘Have you gotten, like, more unattractive for a role?’ No. Just the role of my life. Sometimes they’ll take a picture with me and then they’ll look at it, and I’ll see their faces fall and they realize when they look at the picture, that’s not Ryan Reynolds.”

- Ryan Gosling pretending like he’s less attractive than Ryan Reynolds. Please.

Do people actually think this way in real life? Would any of you (well, not you particularly, you all are much more informed and you have much better taste than the average person) confuse these two Ryans, and, more importantly, can you even fathom calling Ryan Gosling unattractive? And now the most important question: who would you do, Gosling or Reynolds?
