The Clueless star, 47, celebrated her son Bear's 13th birthday by sharing a series of photos of the newly minted teen through the years on Instagram on Sunday, May 5.
"It’s official, my baby is now a teen! 😭🥰😍😳😁," the Baby-Sitters Club alum captioned the carousel.
The mother-son duo posed together in some photos while Bear was alone in others. In the first image in the set, Silverstone held a young Bear in her arms while wearing a yellow, black and white plaid shirt reminiscent of her famous character Cher Horowitz from 1995's Clueless. Her son sported a suit and tie.
The youngster stuck out his tongue as his mom hugged him in another photo, and the pair flashed smiles as they posed for a selfie on the beach a few years later. In the final photo in the carousel, a seemingly exasperated Bear threw his head back as his mom tried to pose with him inside of what appeared to be a helicopter.
Silverstone welcomed Bear with her ex-husband Christopher Jarecki in 2011.
The actress has a unique parenting style, and revealed on The Ellen Fisher Podcast in 2022 that she and her then 11-year-old son still slept in the same bed.
