New dad Ryan Reynolds shared the first photo of his 4-month-old daughter James via Instagram Thursday.

“Thumb wrestling isn’t always fair,” he captioned the image with his baby girl. “Curiously, my hand is the small one.”

The Canadian actor, 38, and his wife, Gossip Girl star Blake Lively, welcomed their first child in Dec. 2014.

During a recent appearance on Extra, Mario Lopez traveled to Vancouver, B.C. to interview Ryan on the set of Deadpool

After discussing how they “own April Fool’s Day,” the pair addressed Ryan’s recent run in with paparazzi.

“It’s one of those things where you let due process do its thing and you don’t really have to get involved,” Ryan said of the car accident.

While Blake is filming a movie in Thailand this summer, Ryan will be on daddy duty.

“The baby’s great, growing like a weed,” the proud papa said.

When asked if he’s getting any sleep, the new dad said, “Sleeping is getting normal now.”

He added: “The baby is making it through the night. We’re feeling pretty good about sleep training.”
