Snooki clearly can't contain her excitement in that petite body of hers following the arrival of Lorenzo Dominic LaValle.

Yep. The Jersey Shore star, who gave birth to her son over the weekend, has taken to Twitter to gush.

"Being a mom is an amazing feeling!!!" she tweeted. "I love my little man to death! Jionni is such a cute dad."

Later, Snooki expressed her appreciation to those who've sent congratulatory messages, many from her fellow costars.

"Thank you all for your love and support!! Lorenzo loves you guys already!" she wrote.

And just a little while ago, Snooki let it be known she hasn't exactly gotten much shuteye since Lorenzo entered the world.

"Hardly any sleep but SO worth it!" she pointed out.

But at least some things are back to normal.

"I'm finally able to eat eggs again!" Snooki enthusiastically tweeted. "While I was pregnant I couldn't even smell them! Now I'm killing it with egg whites!!!"

Snooki and her fiancé, Jionni LaValle, welcomed Lorenzo just before 3 a.m. on Sunday at St. Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston, N.J.
