We can't stop staring!

Ryan Gosling is sexy with his shirt off, but he's even sexier holding a baby (just scroll down).

From the look of these photos, the movie star's coming flick The Place Beyond the Pines is going to keep us on the edge of our seats.

Gosling plays Luke, a carnival motorcycle performer turned bank robber who gets entangled with a rookie cop (Bradley Cooper) while trying to provide for his girlfriend (Gosling's real-life love Eva Mendes) and their baby.

Is it just us, or does this adorable daddy-and-baby snapshot get you imagining Ryan as a real-life dad!?

Pines opens in New York and Los Angeles on March 29, followed by a wider release in April.
