Plenty of our favourite celebrities enjoyed time with their families this past weekend.

With each and every milestone her son crosses, Keke Palmer steps more confidently into her newfound role as a mother. While bringing life into the world certainly breathes a certain air into a woman, as does the "new body" the 29-year-old is flaunting in the weeks after welcoming little Leodis. She didn't hesitate to flaunt her curvaceous figure on Instagram earlier this week, markedly thanking her baby boy for giving her the chest, hips, and booty of her dreams after nine months of pregnancy.

Elsewhere on social media, Palmer was celebrating the Easter holiday this past weekend, along with plenty of other celebrities. For the first time ever, she and her boyfriend Darius Jackson had a little one to spoil, though the 6-week-old seems to have slept through most of the festivities. On Sunday (April 9), the former child star's feed lit up with some heartwarming snapshots featuring her man and their son, the entire family sporting seemingly coordinated looks in various shades of brown. "Happy Easter🐣," Keke wrote in her short and sweet caption. "Blessing to all! He has risen 🙏🏾😍."

Happy Easter from the Jackson-Palmer Family

The upload's first photo sees all three of the Jackson-Palmers posing for the camera. In image number two, the family matriarch poses alone with her little boy, whose tiny feet are kept warm in a pair of adorable fuzzy boots. Since his birth, there's not much about Leodis' life we haven't heard about. Unlike other famous parents, the Chicago-born entertainer has been incredibly forthcoming throughout her journey, even vulnerably admitting to feeling as though she's getting "cooked" from time to time.

Throughout it all, however, Keke Palmer maintains a graceful and gracious attitude, accepting the hurdles as they come and revelling in the good moments. Now that Leodis has made it past the one-month mark, his mother has been able to enjoy more time outside with him, something she warmly spoke about in an IG post last month. "Mommy’ing is coming along if you were looking for an update. I have juggled quite a few careers but this is my greatest gig of all," the True Jackson VP actress said at the time.
