Fans of Teen Mom know all about Amber Portwood and her adorable children. Through her trials and tribulations, Amber's had her daughter -- and now, son -- to help her through it all. Being a teen mom can be a tough task, but every moment has been completely worth it for her bundles of joy (and boyfriend!)

For every bad memory comes a good memory. Amber's rises and falls throughout the show -- and her life -- still have a golden highlight that shines through her kids. Those special moments -- birthdays, holidays, and class pictures -- are really something to behold.

Amber's first child and only daughter, Leah Leann Shirley, was born on November 12, 2008 -- she's 10 years old, now! Time flies -- and Amber has made some big changes to her life in the decade since Leah's birth. After separating from Gary Shirley and nearly being engaged to Matt Baier, Amber found love a few years down the road with her now boyfriend, Andrew Glennon. The pair welcomed their first child together just this year -- Amber's first son, James Andrew Glennon, on May 8, 2018. Leah and James are the stars of Amber's life now -- and she knows that prying eyes have no power over her and her family.

Since then, Amber's children have shown us just how wonderful kids can be -- with every Instagram photo Amber shares, it's plain to see they're getting cuter by the second. There's no doubt about it -- Leah and James are sure to brighten anyone's day (and we have the pictures to prove it!)
