The 'Two and a Half Men' actor - who welcomed twin sons Bob and Max into the world last Saturday (14.03.09) with his wife Brooke Mueller - loves being a dad to his newborn boys.
He said: "It's pretty amazing. Not a whole lot of sleep, but what parent does at this stage? There's adrenaline, excitement, fear."
Though the tots are fraternal twins, the 43-year-old admitted he is struggling to tell the boys apart.
He explained: "I can't tell! They're not identical, but at this stage they're similar enough."
Charlie has also admitted they made a last minute name change during the labour.
Speaking about their choice of names, he said: "They're very short and simple, easy to spell and remember. Bob is the same frontward and backward. I'm a fan of a short and simple name. Max was literally Nick until about a minute before he came out!"
Charlie - who has daughters Sam, five, and Lola, three, with ex-wife Denise Richards and 24-year-old daughter Cassandra from another marriage - admits his youngest daughters are thrilled about their brothers but can't remember their names.
He told US TV show 'Entertainment Tonight': "They're insisting they're named Bob and Duke."
The couple married last May and announced they were expecting twins in October.
