Al Roker reports for grandpa duty, spends weekend babysitting 3-month-old granddaughter Sky Clara

Al Roker is taking his grandpa duty seriously!

The beloved weatherman recently spent a few days with his granddaughter, Sky Clara, which made for the “perfect weekend.”

“Thanks to @ouichefroker and @thatteacherwhodjs for letting me babysit my little Sky Clara over the weekend,” the Today co-host wrote, tagging his granddaughter’s parents, on Instagram.

“I forgot how hard a 3+ month old is on your own. 24 hours without a shower. Whew.”

Roker shared a carousel of adorable photos of Sky sleeping, playing with her grandpa, and sleeping while taking lots and lots of walks.

“It’s been a while since I had this setup going on in the kitchen,” he wrote alongside a photo of baby bottle drying on his kitchen counter. “Good to know I can still do this. Like riding a bike. But, I get to give the bike back to the owners,” he quipped.

Roker’s daughter Courtney Roker Laga and his son-in-law Wes Laga welcomed their daughter Sky Clara on July 3.

Even before she was born, the weatherman made it known how excited he was to become a first-time grandparent.
