The photos show the couple enjoying their newborn daughter, who is dressed in a pink onesie with her name embroidered on the front, paired with a matching pink bow. Also excited for the new addition is Steve Doocy,FOX & Friendshost and new grandpa.

Congratulating his son on this new phase of life, Steve tells PEOPLE, “When I wrote a book on fatherhood, I highlighted a famous quote that, ‘There are three stages of a man’s life: he believes in Santa Claus, he doesn’t believe in Santa Claus, he is Santa Claus.’ Peter, congratulations, you just made it to fatherhood’s third round.”

“The day Peter was born at George Washington Hospital — not far from the White House, while his mother Kathy was having killer contractions — she turned and said to me, ‘When should we start a college fund?’ My wife was sounding like a Morgan Stanley commercial,” Steve laughs.
