Katherine Heigl is on maternity leave from her TV show “Grey’s Anatomy” so she can spend quality time with her newly adopted baby girl, Naleigh.  Mrs. Heigl is actually celebrating her daughter’s birthday today, which is a day before her own birthday.

“She was actually born the day before me in November, which I thought was really serendipitous and just kind of like a sign.”

We all love the fact that Katherine Heigl adopted a baby girl from South Korea.  But did you know that her baby Naleigh actually had heart surgery.  Katherine opened up about her newly adopted baby.

“She had two holes in her heart when she was born, so she had open-heart surgery when she was 3 months old… Naleigh’s definitely getting stronger, so much so that she’s crawling and starting to pull herself up.”

“We’ll add to our family eventually. Naleigh’s so good, though, that our next kid is probably going to be a little hellion.”

Oh btw, did you know Katherine’s sister is adopted from Korea.
