In anticipation of he and Ashlee welcoming their first child, Pete Wentz has shared, “I’m reading a lot of books.”

Pete, 28, explained, “The biggest one is The Expectant Father. It’s a really good one.”

He added, “Also, I’ve watched Look Who’s Talking and Look Who’s Talking Too. I’d be worried if the baby sounded like Bruce Willis.”

Pete also said, “The best advice my dad has given me was, go with your gut. And he said you can’t really have expectations. If I have expectations that he’s going to be a rock star, I’m sure he’ll come out being into sports, and if I have expectations that he’ll be into sports then he’ll be into math or something.”

Pete further shared, “I’m just going into taking it one step at a time, and I’m just excited to meet the baby.”

“We’ll baby-proof the house,” he said, “getting the nursery ready.” Regarding its theme, “It’s not a secret, but it’s more of a private thing. I haven’t really figured it out yet, so I don’t want to go out there and say what it is and then have it not be that.”

“Contrary to the stories out there, we don’t know the sex of the baby,” he revealed. “I’m a person that always likes to be surprised, so I like to wait for the surprise.”

On his expectant wife, he said, “Ashlee’s a trouper. She’s been really good with this. She’s probably one of the most health conscious, spiritually free pregnant women I’ve even been around.”

And Pete and Ashlee already have babysitting offers pouring in!

“I just met your beautiful wife backstage,” Miley Cyrus, 15, gushed to Pete on August 1st.

“I worship her,” Miley went on. “I’ll baby sit!”
