Amber Portwood Celebrates St. Patrick's Day With Daughter Leah!

Now that Amber Portwood has joined Twitter we have no reason to get out of bed in the morning — that's how exciting it is to watch her feed all day. We're so pumped to catch up with Amber's fabulous midwestern life via social media, and girlfriend isn't disappointing! In just one day, Amber bashed her haters, threw shade at Jenelle Evans, and posted several adorable photos of her daughter, Leah Shirley.

Amber doesn't have custody of Leah, due to a drug addiction and jail stint, but girlfriend has a solid relationship with Leah's dad, Gary Shirley, who lets his daughter visit her mom on the regular. In fact, Amber got to spend St. Patrick's Day with Leah — and we assume they spent the overwhelming majority of their time wearing green Uggs, eating corned beef, and watching classic 2001 Disney Channel Original Movie, Luck of The Irish. Because that's pretty much what we did.

"Spending St. Patrick's day with [Leah]…" Amber tweeted on March 18. "love my booboo <3"
Awww, these two! It seems like Amber and Leah had a great time together, and Leah was all tuckered out by the time Amber went to bed. Check out this beautiful photo of Leah snoozin' after a day of St. Patty's Fun, which amber captioned, "Sleeping Beauty <3 Goodnight...sending lots of love!"

Right back atcha, Amber. May the luck of the Irish be with you! Now excuse us while we continue chugging Mountain Dew. 'Cause it's green(ish)!

Amber Portwood Makes a Pit Stop on Her Way Home From Jail

Amber Portwood is free, free as a bird now! This gal was sentenced to five years in jail after opting out of her drug court rehab program, and after 17 months behind bars she's a free woman. So much has happened to Amber since her stint in jail — not only did she develop a love for gray sweatsuits, she may or may not have befriended a feisty broad named Sugarfoot, and — oh, yeah — she beat her drug addiction and is now 100 percent sober!

Amber has a lot of catching up to do now that she's out of jail, but first on her list? Getting some decent noms. When TMZ's camera crew asked Amber about her immediate plans, she revealed that she wanted to "get something good to eat," and did just that! Amber and her family (who were there to greet her upon her release) hit up Frisch's Big Boy in Anderson, Indiana, where they enjoyed a hamburger to go. Blessed, guys! Blessed.

Check out these pictures of Amber and her mom grabbing a bite to eat.

You might think Amber would immediately rush home to visit her baby daddy, Gary Shirley, and her daughter, Leah, but please. Burgers come first, and Amber told reporters that she'd be spending her first evening out of jail with Leah, so no harm done!

Amber also changed out of her prison garb and into a bright pink hoodie and jeans. We suspect that it's only a matter of time before she rolls out the thumb dermals, hair feathers, and off-brand Uggs. Sigh, she's baaaaaack!

Are you surprised that Amber hit up a burger joint during her first post-jail outing? Girl's gotta eat!

Amber Portwood Plans to Fight For Joint Custody of Daughter Leah

Have y'all heard the fantastic news? Teen Mom's Amber Portwood is a free woman! After serving less than two years of her five-year prison sentence at the Rockville Correctional Facility in Indiana, the 23-year-old reality star was reunited with her mom and brother on November 4 — and TMZ cameras were waiting to capture the emotional moment.

When approached by reporters, Amber remained cool, calm, and collected, revealing that her first order of business is getting a warm, home-cooked meal. "I'm gonna go get something good to eat," she said with a laugh. But that's not Amber's only post-prison plan…

When TMZ asked about 5-year-old Leah and whether she plans to fight for joint custody with baby daddy Gary Shirley, Amber replied confidently, "That's the goal. That's what's going to happen."

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like Gary's too eager to start co-parenting. Prior to Amber's release he tweeted, "God I love not having diverse parenting issues. All will soon end, soon. Boo! Oh well I'm a good daddy!"

While Gary has been doing a phenomenal job raising Leah as a single dad, we can't fail to mention Amber's immense progress during her year-and-a-half long prison stint. Not only did she complete her GED, but she took anger management training and even taught her own anger management class!

It's clear that Amber's serious about staying clean and getting her life back on track. In fact, when asked about future plans she revealed, "I'm going to college!"

Though it might take a while for Amber to get joint custody of Leah, it won't be long before she can at least give her baby girl a hug. "Yes," she told reporters when they asked if she'll be seeing her daughter soon. "I'm going to have her tonight."

As far as we know, Amber was only able to see Leah once during her sentence (Gary drove Leah to visit Amber in prison back in May), so this reunion is bound to be an emotional one!

Do you think Amber will be granted joint custody of Leah? Tell us your thoughts below!
