Naomi Watts and Liev Schreiber welcome son Alexander Pete

Actors Naomi Watts, 38, and Liev Schreiber, 39, welcomed son Alexander Pete at 3:59 pm on Wednesday, July 25th. He weighed in at 8 lbs, 4 oz, and is 22.5 inches long.

The name Alexander is believed to be in honor of Liev’s grandfather, with whom he was close, and Pete is for Naomi’s father, Peter. A rep says,

The parents are ecstatic, and both mom and baby are doing great.

A source close to the couple said,

Thisis a dream come true for both of them and they’ve done everything intheir power to make it as special as possible, right down to staying inthe dark about the baby’s sex right up until Naomi gave birth.

Naomi’s due date was August 2nd and she planned to go into labornaturally (without being induced or scheduling a c-section) so we assume that’s what happened.
