Minnie Driver Welcomes Son, Henry Story Driver

Minnie Driver became a first-time mom to son Henry Story Driver, her rep tells PEOPLE exclusively. The baby was born Friday in Los Angeles and weighed 9 lbs., 12 oz., rep Jessica Kolstad says.

Minnie, 38, who has not revealed the identity of the father, told PEOPLE in June that the dad will be involved in the baby's life. "He's going to be a dad so yeah he's going to be there for the kid," she said. "I'm not getting married to this person and I don't know what's going to happen but everyone is cool about the situation."

As the new mom takes on her most important role yet, Minnie says she is looking forward to simply observing and spending time with her child. "Babies are endlessly fascinating to look at and I'm obsessed about their complete and utter lack of guile. I'm looking forward to seeing life through the eyes of my own kid."

She also says she plans on spending lots of time hanging out at the beach with her child. "I love the ocean and this baby will probably be surfing and swimming before it can walk."
