“The Martha Stewart Show” (syndicated, check local listings), actor and new dad Jerry O’Connell joined Martha in the craft room to make an adorable wooden bunny lamp – perfect for the nursery of his new twin babies. Martha joked, “Did you take shop or anything like that, or were you a child actor that didn’t have nice things like shop class?” Jerry exclaimed, “Martha, do I look like a pretty boy? Am I that pretty?”
Jerry on parenting and breast feeding:
MS: You’re the proud parents of twins! How are you adjusting?
JC: Well, it’s great. Bless my wife. She’s doing all of the feeding in the middle of the night.
MS: Is she breast feeding the babies?
JC: Yes, breast feeding. I don’t know why I think that’s a dirty word. It’s not a dirty word…
MS: All the women here have probably had the opportunity to do so.
JC: Then I’ll go into more detail. She’s actually – I’m going to get dirty – she’s pumping a lot…doing it all herself and working! Of course as a dad, I was like, ‘let’s just do formula’ and my wife was like, ‘listen, we’re not doing formula until X months old…’
MS: Six-years-old?
JC: Six-years-old?!
MS: I’m just kidding!
JC: I stopped very young – I was 16 years old.
Jerry on his three month old twins:
JC: They’re so cute!
MS: They don’t look identical.
JC: I also want to say Martha, I realize my children are not the best looking children in the world. I get that.
MS: No, what do you mean? They’re so cute! All babies are the cutest.
JC: All I can think is, they’re the best looking children in the world.
MS: They’re cute. They just don’t look alike.
JC: I call them the big one and the little one.
MS: Do they have names?
JC: They do.
MS: Sometimes fathers forget.
MS: Do they sleep well
JC: They do – for a couple hours at a time. Then my wife feeds them…it’s not my problem!
Jerry on his handyman skills:
MS: Did you take shop or anything like that, or were you a child actor that didn’t have nice things like shop class?
JC: Martha, do I look like a pretty boy? Am I that pretty? These are nice nails…
