This is just too sweet! Late night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel and his wife Molly McNearney welcomed their baby girl earlier this month, and now the host is showing her off to the world.
The 46-year-old host went back to taping for his talk show, Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Monday, eleven days after their daughter was born. "We've been off work for the last two weeks. We've actually been on vacation. I got a lot done. I painted a mirror in my house. I grew this beard. Oh, and I had a baby also. My wife and I made a baby," he explained in his show, while still going for the laughs. "You know how we did it? We made it out of sex."
Kimmel said his wife, 36, is "doing fine" after giving birth to their daughter.
"I'm fine too. I was so brave," he said. "I didn't scream. You guys would've been very, very proud of me."
He also went on to explain the meaning behind her little girl's name. "We named her after my grandmother-her name is Grandma Kimmel. No, we named her Jane."
As he continued with his opening monologue, he showed some adorable snapshots of her baby girl, starting with a picture of Jane "freshly out of the womb."
"Do you know they come out wearing clown makeup? It's the weirdest thing," he joked. "She went a little bit heavy on the foundation." The next picture had little Jane wearing a bow. "She's drunk as a skunk right there," Kimmel described.
A third photo showed Kimmel caressing his daughter's face. "You can see, her head's like the size of a plum. She weighed 6 lbs., 1 ounce, 20 inches long," the comedian gushed. "Just above the legal limit."
Another photo showed the baby giggling. "We showed her her first Tyler Perry movie and she loved it!" the proud father explained. In the final photo, Jane hid her face from the frame. "I've been taking in the neighborhood of 10,000 pictures of her a day and she's finally had enough of it. She thinks I'm with TMZ now," he said.
Although Kimmel already has two kids from a previous marriage, he says that raising a baby is suddenly all very new to him. "I have a 22-year-old daughter and a 20-year-old son already, but it's interesting how much you forget. Like, did you know they don't eat pizza at this age?"
Kimmel finished his spiel by thanking his fans for all the "nice words" and "well wishes" his family has received since McNearney gave birth on July 1. "Rest assured we're gonna do everything in our power to make this the best baby since a cute little guy called Jesus," he said.
The episode also featured the Guardians of the Galaxy Cast, with guests Dave Bautista, Bradley Cooper, Vin Diesel, Chris Pratt and Zoe Saldana.
