The 31-year-old took to Instagram on Monday to share a photo of her and Tripp smiling for the camera.

Alongside the photo, Bristol wrote: “thankful for this one #mamasboy.”

Shortly after the Teen Mom OG alum shared the photo, fans rushed to the comments section to point out how fast Tripp is growing.

One person wrote: “He’s almost as tall as you!”

Another added: “How is he so grown up???”

A third chimed in: “He’s almost as tall as mom, wow.”

One Instagram user told Bristol that she’s “gorgeous,” adding: “And your kids are growing so fast!”

Another agreed as they wrote: “He’s growing up! And getting tall too!”

Many of Bristol’s followers couldn’t believe how the time has flown by, as a following person commented: “He’s growing up so fast! I still remember when he was born. At the rate he’s going, he’ll be in college tomorrow!”

BRISTOL’S FAMILY

The TV personality shares her oldest child with ex-fiancé Levi Johnston, 31.

Bristol – who was just 18 when she had Tripp – and Levi welcomed their son in 2008 after much controversy due to her mother, Sarah Palin, being a candidate for Vice President of the United States.

The couple dated on and off again over the next two years, before they officially ended things in 2010.

Bristol moved on with Dakota Meyer, with whom she shares daughters Sailor, six and Atlee Bay, four.

Following their whirlwind romance, the pair called it quits in 2018.

Dakota and Bristol’s final days played out on Teen Mom OG before she quit the show in 2019.

Meanwhile, Levi married his wife Sunny Oglesby in 2012.

The couple are parents to daughters Breeze, six, Indy Rae, four, and Delta, two.

REUNITED

Back in August, Bristol shared photos from Tripp’s welcome home party after the pre-teen spent a month in Alaska visiting his father.

The MTV alum shared photos from the bash on Instagram and wrote “Hallelujah!” as she celebrated her boy being home.

On another family photo Bristol wrote: “We have been counting down the minutes!! My son my son.” 

The snaps showed Bristol cutting up and dishing out a cake for her kids as they all gathered round the dinner table.

The happy reunion came after Bristol admitted Tripp leaving town was her “worst day of the year” when she posted about it in early July.

“Off to Alaska for a few weeks w/ one of his best friends!” Bristol captioned a photo of her son at the airport at the time.
