This is the first photo I’ve seen:

1996 Olympic gold medalist Dominique Moceanu and her husband welcomed an unexpected Christmas guest this year — a daughter born on Dec. 25.

“She truly is a beautiful and peaceful baby,” Moceanu told IG. “Christmas miracles still do exist!”

Baby Carmen Noel Canales was born in Cleveland, Ohio, on Christmas Day afternoon, weighing 7 lbs. 7 oz. and measuring 18.5 inches. …

Moceanu was the youngest U.S. senior national champion in history, winning the 1995 all-around title at age 13. She was a member of the U.S. gold medal-winning team at the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta. …

Canales, a former gymnast at Ohio State, is now a podiatric surgeon in Cleveland.
