Forget pickles and ice cream. Rebecca Romijn has her own unusual cravings.

“Lemonade always has to be in our fridge,” husband Jerry O’Connell told People Sunday night before participating in the Nike + Human Race in Los Angeles. “That’s my job. [Also] soy cream cheese. It’s crazy, right? Can’t be cream cheese. Soy cream cheese. Do you know how difficult it is to find soy cream cheese? It’s usually in the corner of the supermarket someplace!”

The actress – who’s expecting twin girls this winter – is “getting bigger by the day,” added O’Connell, noting that he’s already witnessed a big change in his wife’s appetite.

“Meals are not missed,” he joked. “We promptly hit them and if we’re a little late, then … somebody’s not happy.”

As for the babies’ names, the actor said he and Romijn are “definitely” leaning towards Dolly for one, since the Ugly Betty star is a big Dolly Parton fan. (”The other [name] we’re not really sure,” he noted.)

Before the race started O’Connell – who was one of the 12,000 participants in L.A. for the 10-kilometer race – kept himself hydrated and chatted with another celebrity runner, Jason Priestley.

To prepare for the 6.2-mile run, the dad-to-be didn’t hire a personal trainer – he simply went running solo. “If you want to get in shape, I highly suggest jumping into a race like this,” he said. “It forces you to get out of bed in the morning and really motivates you.”

She’s not due to give birth until next year, but Rebecca Romijn has already decided to name one of the twins she is expecting with hubby Jerry O’Connell after her favorite singer, Dolly Parton.

“I have been a Dolly fan all of my life. She’s a wonderful woman. I really connect with her music. I can’t think of a better role model for my children!” says the mom-to-be, who finally met her idol at the “Backwoods Barbie” show in Tennessee’s Dollywood theme park on August 17.

“She has this great, sweet personality but she’s also strong and wise,” gushed Rebecca, 35, who got Dolly’s blessing for her choice of name. “She was honored.” Dolly dedicated her song “Little Sparrow” to Rebecca when she sang it at the show.

Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O’Connell will soon be on double diaper duty.

Us Weekly has learned that Romijn, 35, and O’Connell, 34, are expecting twins this winter.

A spokesman for the couple confirmed the news Monday morning.

The babies will be the first children for the pair.

Romijn and O’Connell met at a party in 2004; he proposed a year later. They got married in an intimate ceremony in Los Angeles in July 2007. See their wedding photo.

A source close to the actor tells Us, “Jerry couldn’t be happier about becoming a dad.”

Earlier this month, O’Connell told Us that they had been trying to have kids.

“It would be amazing if it happened,” he said at the Much Love Animal Rescue’s “Bow Wow WOW!” event in L.A. July 19. “I hope it does happen.”

He joked that the conception process had been “a lot fun for me,” adding that they go at it “at least a few days a month!”

Asked about the secret to a happy marriage, O’Connell told Us, “We have a lot of fun together. I really enjoy being with her. I think Rebecca really enjoys being with me.”

Next up: O’Connell will star in the new Fox sitcom Do Not Disturb (premiering this fall). Romijn will star in the drama Lake City (due in November) and will return for a handful of episodes of ABC’s Ugly Betty in the fall.

Do they ever want to work together?

“Yeah, but we are so afraid of that Gigli effect!” O’Connell joked. “You can’t really go there anymore. It’s over. It’s done.”

Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O’Connell, who celebrated their first wedding anniversary July 14, are not expecting a baby – yet!

“We’re trying to get pregnant,” the actor told People Saturday at the Playboy Mansion, where he stepped out for Much Love Animal Rescue’s 2nd annual Bow Wow Wow event in Los Angeles. “It would be amazing if it happened. I hope it does.”

O’Connell, who says trying to get pregnant is “a lot of fun,” brought along the couple’s dogs Taco and Better who he called “our babies.”

“It’s just such a great feeling you get when you rescue an animal,” he said. “They’re eternally grateful and they really trust you and they’re just the best.”

Besides, he said, “Pets are training for kids.”

Though the couple spent their first wedding anniversary apart – she was in New York and he was in L.A. – O’Connell says their time apart may actually help their relationship.

“Being apart, you want to make the most of your time together,” he says. “And we really have a lot of fun together.”

Rebecca Romjin is quitting Ugly Betty after the current second season, claiming new writers on the show have wrecked her character.

Romjin has become a regular castmember since first appearing as Alexis Meade in the first season of the ABC TV show.

A third series has been approved, but Romjin will only return for guest appearances – hinting that she has fallen out with new writing staff recruited after the Writer’s Guild of America strike late last year.

She tells NYPost.com’s Pop Wrap, “They made a tremendous amount of changes, especially with the writing staff (during the writer’s strike). And while I know I’ll be coming back next season, with all the changes, I’m not sure they can take care of my character they way they have been. So I’ll be leaving, back in a recurring capacity, but time for me to leave and find something else.”
