Caretaking after newborns can be exhausting (all the time!).), and it can make time feel like it’s stretching out. It’s only a matter of hours and not days, but weeks seem like months. But while exhausted parents might need a break from their baby, it’s the opposite for Keke Palmer. She joked that her baby boy Leodis is “already tired” of hanging out with his mama, and the video evidence is so freaking cute.
The Human Resources Instagram video of actress Leodis in bed with her newborn baby. The video was posted by the actress on February 26, 2016. She’s dancing to “Slide” by Sada Baby, while Leodis lies back on her chest doing skin to skin. He gives the camera the most bizarre look while she dances. His eyes are so wide as he gives his mom the side eye, and we can’t stop laughing.
“And to think! Just last April fools I ‘joked’ about being preggers … we manifested you little buddy!” Palmer wrote in her caption. “I love hanging with you and you just be looking crazy like a caveman. ????”
She added, “He already tired of me.”
Skai Jackson commented, “He said ‘ side EYE’?? he’s sick and tired.” Queen Latifah wrote, “?????????.”
“He’s so adorable!! He was like “Please call my grandma, mama is tripping!” ???” someone else said.
Another joked, “Li’l man realizing in real time what he’s in for outside the womb ?? So happy for you ✨? .”
“Lmaooo if ‘my moms a Virgo ‘ was a baby ??,” someone else wrote.
When Palmer was pregnant, she worried that her baby would be too “emotional” for her if he was born during Pisces season, which runs from Feb. 19-March 20. “Pisces are known to be very deep,” she said on a Jan. 2023 appearance of The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon “They’re emotional creatures. So I just want to make sure I’m not too blunt for my baby boy.”
The Nope star went on, “I don’t want to be too like, ‘Look, what’s up?’ Because sometimes I can be a little too ‘tell it like it is,’ you know? I must wade in water with a Pisces. Just keep it chill, child.”
Despite her nervousness (and baby Leo’s nervous facial expressions!) Things are going well at Palmer. In an Instagram post in March 2023 she shared an important update.
“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.” Aww!
Even if he doesn’t appreciate his mama’s dance moves yet, Leodis is still adorable!
