1990s child star Marla Sokoloff is all grown up and expecting a kid of her own.

The 30-year-old “Dude, Where’s My Car?” actress is pregnant with her first child, reports Us Weekly. The California native, who portrayed the trouble-maker Gia Mahan in the popular ’90s sitcom “Full House,” married Deadsy drummer Alec Puro, 36, in 2009. Before that, Sokoloff was in a long-term relationship with “127 Hours” actor James Franco, whom she met on the set of 2000 teen movie “Whatever It Takes.” (RELATED: Carla Bruni confirms pregnancy)

During her acting glory days, Sokoloff often took on the roles of bullies. In “Full House,” her character teased protagonist Stephanie Tanner for being a goody two-shoes. In the 1995 film “The Baby-Sitters Club,” Sokoloff played the catty Cokie Mason, an ice princess arguably nastier than “Mean Girls” plastic queen Regina George. Sokoloff also appeared on the cheesy ’90s soap opera “7th Heaven,” which told the story of a preacher’s self-righteous family of nine.
