April 1, 2014 -- Jennifer Love Hewitt has been laying low recently -- and for good reason.

In November, the "Client List" star, 35, welcomed her daughter with her co-star Brian Hallisay, whom she married five days before giving birth. The wedding, she told Ellen DeGeneres, was intimate.

"It was just the two of us and then we went to Bed, Bath & Beyond because that's what married people do," she said. "It was really sweet."

Hallisay, also 35, whom Hewitt gushed is a "great husband," has also been an "awesome, incredible father" to their little girl. And, for the first few months, that was extra-important, as baby Autumn wasn't sleeping well.

Now four months old, she's a "great sleeper," and aspiring dancer, her mom said.

"She loves Pharrell and Drake. She's big into hip-hop and Latin music," Hewitt said. "She does the dougie! I take her arms and do the dougie."

Because of her reaction to music, Hewitt is convinced that Autumn could be a future dancer.

"I really do!" she insisted. "She loves it."
