Actor Simon Pegg, best known for Shaun of the Dead and more recently, Star Trek, and his wife, Maureen McCann, welcomed a baby girl his rep confirms with Usmagazine.com. Simon announced that Maureen was five months pregnant back in March.

Usmagazine.com reports that Simon has been ready to be a "doting dad" for a while now.  "It's the most important thing to me. I'm very excited. I want to be a really good dad, a good influence and a good role model - someone my child can turn to, whatever the hell that means.... It's all to do with your attitude and making sure they stay grounded, but making sure they aren't deprived of anything." Simon has had some experience with baby girls already: he is godfather to Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin's daughter Apple.

Congratulations to Simon and Maureen!
