CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) - Dale Earnhardt Jr. is going to be rather busy in retirement.
NASCAR's most popular driver announced Monday his wife is expecting the couple's first child.
Earnhardt posted a picture of pink pair of baby girl Converse on Instagram to announce he and wife, Amy, are having a daughter.
He did not reveal a due date, but said in a Twitter post the couple learned they were expected at the beginning of September.
Earnhardt has five races left before he retires from his final full-time season in NASCAR.
He's already accepted a job with the NBC Sports broadcast team for next season.
Earnhardt was married on Dec. 31 after he recovered from concussion symptoms. He was treated at UPMC Hospitals in Pittsburgh.
