She’s here! Robert Downey Jr. and his wife, Susan, are now the proud parents of a bouncing baby girl named Avri Roel Downey!

“Yep … Avri Roel Downey joined the party @ 3:22 a.m. on November 4th … she’s 7 lbs even, spans 20 inches, and is accompanied by a variety of Susan’s traits that have seemingly overwritten my ‘junk DNA,'” the actor wrote on Facebook.

The "Iron Man" star also joked about his already substantial photo collection of the newest addition.

“After 9 months of intensive development, Team Downey is pleased to announce our 2014 fall/winter project. Principal photography commenced 11-14 and will continue until she says, ‘Dad! You are embarrassing me…I’m 30, this has gotta stop,’” he teased.

Avri joins the couple’s son, Exton, 2, and RDJ’s son Indio, 21, from a previous relationship.

In July, the Oscar nominee announced on Twitter that he and his wife were expecting:

After learning he was having a little girl, the 49-year-old shared his excitement on "The Ellen Show" last month.

“It’s wild,” he gushed. “I’ve heard that for dads, you grow a new heart valve when you have a daughter, and there’s all sorts of new experiences and feelings and stuff.”

So will baby girl Downey get any younger siblings in the future? Unfortunately not! He revealed, “The missus says we’re done!”

Congratulations to all!
