The family of three color-coordinated their outfits with the little one donning a polka dot onesie.
Keke Palmer is celebrating her first Easter with her family of three! The Emmy Award-winning actress celebrated the traditional springtime festival by posting two photographs of her family on Instagram on April 9.
Palmer is pictured in the first shot with partner Darius Jackson and their 6-week-old baby boy, Leodis "Leo" Andrellton. The Nope actress clutches Jackson's arm as he cradles a sleeping Leo. The family is seen in color-coordinated outfits in the first selfie with Leo wearing a lovely black and beige polka dot onesie and matching hat, and Palmer wearing a brown sweater dress with tortoiseshell spectacles. Jackson is seen dressed in a black T-shirt and a brown hat. Palmer embraces a sleeping Leo and leans in for a huge kiss in the second photo, per PEOPLE. She captioned the image, "Happy Easter! Blessings to all! He has risen."
Last week, Palmer showed off her mommy moves in a cute video with Leo, in which they danced around to Sada Baby's Slide. "And to think! Just last April Fools I 'joked' about being preggers … we manifested you little buddy!" wrote Palmer in the caption. "I love hanging with you and you just be looking crazy like a caveman. He's already tired of me."
Palmer and Jackson announced the birth of their first child in February. "Hey Son!!!!" Palmer wrote at the time, adding, "Born during Black History Month, with a name to match! LEODIS ANDRELLTON JACKSON, welcome to the world, baby Leo."
Palmer hosted a Once Upon a Time-themed baby shower in January, telling PEOPLE she couldn't "wait to hold my little one." She said, "I am counting the minutes until I get to meet him and start learning about this human I helped create."
Palmer explained her choice of theme to PEOPLE, saying, "Right now, I feel like I'm living in a fairy tale!" Palmer told the outlet exclusively, "I'm a huge Disney fan because of how aspirational and sweet their stories are. I want to create a world like that for my baby, a world in which all things are possible."
Palmer announced her pregnancy back in December 2022 when she made her Saturday Night Live hosting debut. "There's some rumors going around, people have been in my comments saying, 'Keke's having a baby, Keke's pregnant,' and I wanna set the record straight — I am!" Palmer hilariously exclaimed during her opening monologue, shocking fans as she unbuttoned her long jacket to reveal her growing baby bump!
