Mario Lopez and Courtney Mazza welcomed a baby girl into the world last Friday, September 10. Baby Gia (Gia Francesca Lopez) is the couple's first child. The baby weighed 6 lbs. and 4 oz., according to People.com. Mother and daughter are both well.
After the birth, Lopez told Extra,"We are so overjoyed. What an amazing, wonderful and overwhelming experience to welcome our daughter into the world."
"I woke up this morning as a regular guy and I'm going to bed tonight as a father," Lopez told Extra on Friday.
Lopez, currently a host on TV's Extra, plans to write a book and create a reality TV show as he experiences being a father for the first time.
"There's so much out there for women but not so much for men, and I want to be a very hands-on dad," he said. "I think having a humorous but informative way to tell that story would be great for a show."
Lopez and Mazza met working on the 2008 revival of A CHORUS LINE on Broadway. Mazza is a dancer and actress who's Broadway credits include CRY BABY and THE LITTLE MERMAID.
