He welcomed his third daughter last year with wife, Blake Lively. 

And while Blake held down the fort at home with their middle daughter, Inez, three, and unnamed newborn, Ryan Reynolds spent some one-and-one time with eldest daughter, James, five. 

The 43-year-old proved he was a doting dad as he walked around Manhattan with James on his shoulders following their daddy-daughter lunch date. 

Ryan opted for a insulated navy colored jacket and a pair of grey trousers. 

He teamed the look with a matching cap and a crisp white Converse sneakers. 

The actor completed his look with thick black framed glasses.  

Ryan was spotted walking with little James on his shoulders.  

The eldest Reynolds daughter was dressed in a similar colored jacket, green rain boots and a cute beanie. 

Not seen with the Deadpool star was his wife Blake and two youngest daughters.
