On September 11, Cortese uploaded a photo that showed her sons sitting next to each other in a double stroller. Cameron looked at the photographer with a small smile playing on his lips. Meanwhile, something off-camera seemed to have caught CJ’s attention. 

In the caption of the post, Cortese shared that the photo captured a major moment for her sons.

“Deena you are such a GREAT mother. I enjoy all your stories and your babies are the cutest [heart-eye emoji],” wrote a third commenter. 

Cortese also shared a brief video with her Instagram followers on September 1. In the clip, the “Jersey Shore: Family Vacation” star sat on the couch while holding her 4-month-old son. She kissed her baby and asked him to kiss her on the cheek, which he obliged. 

“Kisses for mommy !!!! [hugging face emoji] [red heart emoji],” read the caption of the post. 

A few of Cortese’s “Jersey Shore” co-stars commented on the post. Jenni “JWoww” Farley left a string of heart-eye emojis. In addition, Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi commented “The best!!!”

Samantha “Sammi Sweetheart” Giancola also flocked to the post’s comments section. 

“Ugh my heart, too cute!” commented Giancola.

“This woman absolutely kicked a** this weekend and I couldn’t be more proud.. and then to come home and see CJ help with the baby is just the pinnacle of my happiness. Thanks for all the love everyone ! [blue heart emoji],” read the caption of the post.
