Meet Ruby Maguire

The first pics of Ruby Sweetheart Maguire have been published, and actor Tobey Maguire told USA Today, "This is truly the best time of my life." The Spider-Man star recently talked to Jay Leno about his new status as a dad. "It's completely indescribable." Where he and fiancee Jennifer Meyer come up with the name? "Jen's grandmother, who passed away recently, would always call her 'Sweetheart.' We named her that to honor her grandmother." As for Ruby, Maguire said, "We just like the name." And when asked about the birth, the actor told Leno, "Nobody really coached me on it. They say, 'OK, catch her!' I'm like, 'What do I do?' I ended up just kind of putting my hand on her while the doctor put her on Mom's belly." Maguire and Meyer have been engaged for ten months, and a family friend says the pair "wanted to get married before the baby was born, but they couldn't get it together in time." Another pal says, "They're the coolest parents. They're the first of all their friends to have a baby, and the friends are eating it up."
