"She is that rare thing: a wonderful actress, a wonderful soul possessed of that skinlessness that
the camera is greedy for, which allows us to glimpse all of her frailties, her sorrows, her joys,
her good heart. She manages all of those things with grace, style and an astonishing work ethic."
- Anthony Minghella on Nicole Kidman

July 7th 2008 - Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban Welcome a Baby Girl
Nicole Kidman and her husband, Keith Urban, have welcomed their first child together, a daughter named Sunday Rose Kidman Urban, born Monday morning in Nashville, PEOPLE has confirmed.
"Husband Keith was by Nicole's side, and mother and baby are very well," said spokesman Paul Freundlich, who added that the couple were "delighted" to make the announcement. He also said the baby girl weighed 6 lbs., 7.5 oz.
The pregnancy was first announced in January. Kidman has two other children with her former husband Tom Cruise: Isabella, 15, and Connor, 13.
In the days leading up to the birth, the couple – who celebrated their second wedding anniversary on June 25 – didn't stray from their normal routine in and around Nashville, where they reside in a gated community.
From early morning stops at a local Starbucks for warm drinks to a little sweat at the gym later in the day (Kidman was a regular at spin and yoga classes during her pregnancy), the couple remained low-key.
"She's never been happier and healthier," says a close family friend. "She is absolutely radiant and enjoying nesting and homemaking with Keith at their new home in Nashville."
But getting ready for their baby was a priority. Urban admitted he was learning a new vocabulary for fatherhood and doing Lamaze lessons. "He doesn't know the name [of the classes], but he has been very good at it!" Kidman told a local radio station on June 24.
The new parents also bought a couple of books to help them along: Pocket Dad: Everyday Wisdom and Your Pregnancy, Week By Week.
"The unknown excites me a lot," Urban told reporters in May. "What kind of feelings will fatherhood bring? I'm sure I can't even imagine, but I am really looking forward to finding out."
Additional quote from Wendy Day: "They are all perfect and they are all doing well," Kidman's publicist Wendy Day told The Daily Telegraph this morning.
