Minnie Driver is going to be fat and happy. The Academy Award-nominated actress, who has recently announced her pregnancy, says she is looking forward to the summer to relax and just enjoy being pregnant.

The first-time expectant mother knows she isn't going to have enough rest when she gives birth but before then, she just wants to unwind.

Driver, 38, tells People magazine, "I'm going to be a very tired mother, I'm sure! No, I'm going to be happy. I'm going to be a happy mother."

The "Good Will Hunting" actress says after the next couple of busy months releasing her album "Seastories" in the U.K., she is "just going to have the summer to be fat and happy."

Driver, who keeps mum about her baby's father, announced her pregnancy on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno last week.
