Back to what matters most!

Ryan Gosling flew home to L.A. this weekend after shooting his latest movie The Nice Guys in Atlanta for the past several weeks, and the actor seemed like he was eager to get back to girlfriend Eva Mendes and their infant daughter Esmeralda.

The couple welcomed their little princess a mere eight weeks ago, but in that short amount of time, their lives have totally changed. "[Eva] is absolutely in heaven being a mom. She's never been happier. She and Ryan are just in awe of this beautiful person they created. It's a really special time for them," a source dished to People.

The hunky A-lister has fully embraced fatherhood, too. "Ryan is very hands on. Changes diapers, rocks her to sleep—they gave her her first bath together and videotaped the whole thing," another source dished to E! News.

We wish gorgeous Mr. Gosling was rushing into our loving arms!
