Peter Facinelli's Family Eclipses Work

Ever the multitasker, Peter Facinelli has jetted off of the set of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse to play his most important role, as Dad, in Los Angeles.

Dr. Carlisle Cullen tweeted on Saturday that he "dipped down to LA for the weekend. On my way to my daughter's soccer practice straight from the airport."

And as our photos indicate, he hadn't  a moment to spare. Facinelli was in such a parenting frenzy he had no idea he was showing some belly button.

While rigorous fight training has been keeping the actor busy, he did manage to see New Moon.

"It's really good. I'm excited!" he tweeted of the special cast screening.
