Keke Palmer has taken on a lot of roles, but she says motherhood is by far her “greatest gig of all.” Taking to Instagram Monday, she shared photos of her posing against a New York City skyline with her stroller.

“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,” she wrote. “Learning how to balance it all and looking forward to discovering this new person I am becoming.”

Keke acknowledged that she “will never be the same again” and suggested that motherhood may have made her better. “If you thought I was a bad mama jamma before, you can’t imagine the greater purpose my son has given my life!” she wrote. “It’s giving, SUPER SAIYAN.”

Keke and partner Darius Jackson announced that they’d welcomed their son on February 27. “Hey Son!!!! Only 48 hours of being parents!” she penned. “Born during Black History Month, with a name to match! LEODIS ANDRELLTON JACKSON, welcome to the world baby Leo.”

With her new job as a mom, Keke admits she now indulges in “mom stuff.”

“Loving the new world I get to indulge in now as a mom,” she wrote. “I have so many things bagged in my Amazon cart, haven’t quite pulled the place the order button, but it feels good just adding it to the cart. You know, fake shopping hahaha.”
