Joey McIntyre's son Griffin is a budding Celtics fan

Under the caption, "My dad had to wait 22 years for this, but I’m used to these championships in Boston," Joey McIntyre has posted a new photo of 7-month-old son Griffin Thomas dressed in green and clutching a Celtics hat, in honor of their NBA championship win earlier this week. The New Kid on the Block, 35, also left a brief message for fans, revealing that there’s "a lot going on behind the scenes" for the NKOTB reunion.

I’m excited to see it all roll out. And if we’re excited, I trust you guys are too. Its been cool to bump into people wherever I go, who share their stories and tell me they can’t wait for the tour and to hear the new music. Timing is everything and it sure feels right. I think we — meaning you and us — are at a place where we can really enjoy this.

The New Kids on the Block reunion album hits stores in September. Their single, "Summertime," is available now.

What an adorable little boy & already a Celtics fan!!

Joey needs to fix his site so that the caption says Celtics not Cetics, but that’s besides the point… LOL

I wish them all the happiness in the world with their little guy!!

He’s sooooo cute! Any other 30-somethings on Cloud 9 about the NKOTB reunion? I’m going to their two L.A. concerts this fall. OK, that’s not about babies, but I had to share.
