Jessica Alba's Bilingual Baby

When it comes to her Latin roots, Jessica Alba has clearly had a change of heart.

Though she appeared to have distanced herself from her Mexican ancestry, the new mom is now desperate to keep her heritage alive through her daughter, Honor Marie, born June 7.

"Jessica wants to try to brush up on her language skills so that she can start speaking Spanish at home in front of Honor,” a friend of the 27-year-old tells OK!.

Having not spoken the language in years, the actress' Spanish is little bit rusty, but she knows she needs to buckle down and re-learn it for her little girl.

“She knows that her own Spanish skills are not what they should be, and while she’s always under a lot of criticism, she is trying to make amends for that and do what’s right for her baby,” the source says.

Muy bien, Jess!
