"Amy Poehler is not here tonight because she is having a baby," he said.
Poehler, who played a wacky surrogate mom in "Baby Mama" earlier this year, told the Daily News in April that she's excited to become a mom.
"I'm great with kids," she said. "I think I'm still a big, giant kid. I understand them and usually we're the same size. I think I understand the way they look up at the world. I get it."
Poehler, 37, announced she would be leaving the sketch comedy show after her son's birth to star in her own NBC sitcom.
