Al Roker's daughter Courtney Roker is flaunting her growing belly. The 36-year-old shared her first pregnancy update on Instagram on Sunday after announcing last month that she and her husband, Wesley Laga, are expecting their first child together. Courtney posted a photo of herself on Instagram grinning and wearing a light-blue dress with cutouts at the waist with the caption "Baby (& Mama) is growing."

In addition to Courtney, Roker and his wife, Deborah Roberts, are parents to son Nick, 20, and daughter Leila, 24, per PEOPLE.

Roker sat down with his colleagues on the TODAY show to discuss the news last month and revealed that his son-in-law's brother had accidentally told him about Courtney's pregnancy. "Wes' goofy brother accidentally dropped it in a text," he told Hoda Kotb. "Thanks, Cory."

"We're very excited. It's hard to believe," he expressed during the broadcast. "It still hasn't quite sunken in." To mark the beginning of his new chapter as a first-time grandfather, Roker joked that he already has a "grandfather name," saying, "I think in honor of my dad, I'm going to try to go for Pop-Pop."
