Peter Facinelliis excited to be a boy dad!
“I have three sisters and I have three daughters, so it’s interesting being a new dad to a boy,” he continued. “It feels like I’m starting… Not only starting over, but starting with something new to learn from. He’s teaching me a lot, too. They have something called Pee-Pee Teepees that you put over him, so he doesn’t squirt in the air. I never had to deal with that before.”
As for what he looks forward to in the future with his son, Facinelli told PEOPLE, “Right now I’m taking it one day at a time.”
“I don’t know who he’s going to be or what he wants to be, so I think you always have ideas in your head of, ‘Oh, baseball and soccer.’ But my daughters were very athletic too, so just take one day at a time to see what he likes,” he shared.
