"Yeah they're really cute and I'm really hungry," Peter awkwardly transitioned, hoping it might steer the attention away from your phone where you've shown him another picture of a baby in a penguin onesie. "What about ordering some pizza?" He continued, ignoring that it was the middle of the night.

It wasn't that he didn't love kids, because he did. He just doesn't want them right now and you've been 'subtly' hinting to him about starting one for a month.

So now he had two options: Confront you about the issue or continue to ignore it. The first option was probably wiser but he was going with the latter.
