During her morning weather forecast, ABC7's Leslie Lopez had a surprise visitor, making for one adorable news blooper.

Before pausing momentarily to laugh at her son, who had appeared in the shot and was attempting to walk between her legs, Lopez said:
"We're waiting for that storm right here in Southern California."
Continuing on, Lopez did not skip a beat as she picked up her son and reported the rest of her weather forecast.
She joked at the end of her segment:
"He walks now, guys, so I've lost all control."
Following the hilarious encounter, Lopez's colleague Brandi Hitt shared the clip on Twitter, writing:
"Baby on the move! There is no stopping adorable Nolan now that he can walk during Mommy's (@abc7leslielopez) forecast."
Lopez retweeted it, writing beside the video, "Mr Friday made a surprise appearance this morning," and including a heart and laughter emoji.
This led to many of Lopez's Twitter followers showing their support for the working mum, commending her for carrying on despite the unexpected cameo.
Fellow KABC colleague and reporter, Leticia Juarez:
"This was great and you rolled with it so well. I'm waiting for my 3/yo to come screaming naked thru my home remote someday."
Speaking to Good Morning America after the hilarious ordeal, Lopez said she had been working remotely since the pandemic and this was the first time ever that the toddler had pulled himself up from sitting to standing.
Several others celebrated Lopez for normalizing a mum's work-life balance.
