Olympic gold medalist Dominique Moceanu gave birth to her first child, Carmen Noel Canales, on December 25. Moceanu is married to Michael Canales, a former Ohio State gymnast.

She told People magazine, "The miracle of baby Carmen being born on Christmas Day makes this wonderful time all the more special to us. This is the best Christmas present we could have ever received!"

International Gymnast online has a photo of Dominique, Mike and Carmen. I'm loving that Santa suit on the baby!
