Mindy Kaling has had an exciting week. First, she was featured on the cover of TIME Magazine with her cast mates from A Wrinkle in Time.

Watch out, 2018, indeed! Mindy is coming for you with all this winning.
We also got to see her shine in the Ocean’s 8 trailer.

We’re going to get two movies starring one of Hollywood’s funniest ladies in 2018?
We’re not worthy.
To top it all off, we found out that she quietly gave birth on December 15th.
E! confirms that the 38-year-old actress gave birth to a baby girl, and that she named her bundle of joy Katherine Kaling.
Mindy is notoriously private and has kept quiet about who the child’s father is, so we shouldn’t be surprised that she gave birth days ago without anyone hearing about it.
Let us tell you, this baby is blessed. Oprah was one of the first people to know of her existence (and to spill the beans about Mindy’s pregnancy), so Katherine already has that going for her. Plus she is going to have the world’s coolest mom. Mindy said herself, “I’d like to be the fun mom, I know I’m gonna be the dorky mom.”
We’re all super excited for her:

Mindy Kaling's daughter having her last name is officially the middle finger to the patriarchy that 2017 needed.

Mostly we’re just waiting for this to happen so that we can have quality funny mom content to read:

Or, I mean, we’d also be okay with her taking some time to do this:

This kid really did hit the mom jackpot! Congratulations, Mindy! Now the wait for baby photos begins…
