After accidentally revealing that he and wife Mila Kunis are expecting a son on the Today show Thursday morning, Ashton Kutcher stopped by Late Night with Seth Meyers on Thursday night where he not only confirmed the news — he also admitted it wasn’t what he was initially hoping for!
The happy couple are already parents to 2-year-old daughter Wyatt Isabelle. But Kutcher, 38, confessed to Meyers he wanted baby no. 2 to be a girl.
“I was actually hoping for a girl,” he said. “Because first of all — our first girl is unbelievable. But also I figured if we had a girl second, [Mila] might give me one more shot at having a boy and now I don’t know! It’s even money — she might cut me off!”

The eager dad explained that while he and his 33-year-old wife haven’t discussed having more kids, he certainly wants more than kids.
“I want, like, 12 of them,” he said.
But his desire was not a cause for disagreement among the couple. He assured fan, “We’re very excited and very happy.”

Kutcher isn’t the only one excited about the new addition to his family. He told Today that Wyatt Isabelle is equally looking forward to it.
“She points to Mila and she’s like, ‘Baby brother!’ when she points to the belly,” he said.

Kunis and Kutcher recently celebrated Wyatt’s second birthday. And if his experiences in helping his daughter open and assemble her gifts are any indication, it sounds like the soon-to-be dad of two has his work cut out for him.
“You have to have a toolbox just to get it out,” he joked to Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday night‘s episode of The Tonight Show. “We have ruined opening presents for kids. She opens it and then it takes Dad like a half hour to cut the plastic swizzle sticks off and break it.”
