Al Roker is currently enjoying a tropical reunion with his son, Nick - who appears to be getting taller by the day. 

The popular meteorogolist shared several images from his time away with his youngest child and wife, Deborah Roberts, and fans couldn't get over his stature. 

In all the photos Nick, 20, towered over his famous dad as he held him tight, showing off their special bond.

Al also posted a photo from the same location in Puerto Rico, eight years ago and compared it to today and the difference was startling. 

"Really not much difference when Nick and I were here in 2014 and today, right? #thenandnow #pollypocketdad," he captioned the then-and-now post.

The trio looked to be having a lovely time

The father-of-three recently spoke exclusively to HELLO! at the Hudson River Park Friends Luncheon to send a message to Hoda and Savannah who had both been off due to challenges in their personal life.

"The great part is that [we're] kind of like The Hard Rock Cafe, 'love all-[serve] all'," he said. "We're a family, so we take care of each other in times like this.

"I got to see it firsthand after my illness, and it's just what we do. That's why I love working with these folks. It's a real blessing, the power of positive thoughts and prayer. I'm living proof of that."
