Dancing With the Stars champ J.R. Martinez has more to be happy about now.

The Iraq war veteran and girlfriend Diana Gonzalez-Jones welcomed daughter Lauryn Anabelle Martinez on Wednesday in Los Angeles.

"She's already got a nickname — Belle," Martinez, 28, tells People.com. "She has a couple of cute little freckles on her cheeks, a full head of hair and the cutest little lips."

Baby Belle weighed in at 7 pounds, 13 ounces and is 21 inches long, reports People.
