In 2015, TLC viewers were introduced to the Johnston family. They followed along as Trent and Amber raised their five kids, with the main draw being every member of the family has achondroplasia dwarfism. And recently, Amber Johnston celebrated her and Trent’s granddaughter turning 1 by sharing a new photo of the birthday girl.
For those who missed that the Johnstons welcomed their first grandchild, Amber and Trent’s daughter Elizabeth became a mom in November 2023. Liz and her boyfriend, Brice Bolden, are parents to a daughter they named Leighton. She’s growing up so fast!

On November 3, Amber Johnston marked her granddaughter turning 1.
Amber took to Instagram to publicly celebrate Leighton’s big milestone. “Our Leighty-Bug is 1 today! #beinglolliandboppaisthebest,” the doting grandmother captioned her post. In the photo, Leighton wore a cream-colored outfit and a burnt orange bow in her hair while standing and supporting herself with a chair. Although Amber seemingly limited who could comment, one person declared, “One already?! Happy birthday pretty girl!”
Amber recently shared a glimpse of Leighton’s Halloween costume.
Just three days before Leighton turned 1, Amber offered a peek at her granddaughter’s Halloween costume. Liz and Brice opted to dress her up as Rosie the Riveter for her first spooky holiday. “🎃 1st ,” Halloween 🎃 #thecutestrosieever💪🏼,” Amber captioned her Instagram update.
Meanwhile, Liz posted a snapshot of her daughter at a pumpkin patch.
Liz hasn’t posted in honor of Leighton’s birthday thus far. On October 21, however, she shared images via Instagram of her baby girl seemingly at a pumpkin patch. “Our little pumpkin🧡,” the proud mom captioned pictures of her daughter adorably wearing a fall-themed corduroy outfit.

Another recent photo dump showed Liz, Brice, and Leighton.
Liz ushered in autumn with the help of a seasonal photo shoot. On October 19, she uploaded snaps of her, Brice, and Leighton posing together while sitting on a porch. The 11-month-old wore a long-sleeved bodysuit with pumpkins and brown flowers. “Happy Fall🤎🍂 & Go Dawgs❤️🏈 !!!” Liz declared in the Instagram caption.
Amber posted another update about her grandbaby earlier in the month.
October was a photo-filled month for the Johnston family. On October 17, Amber shared a sweet photo of her daughter Emma sitting in a chair with Leighton. “Our Leighty-Bug loves, loves to read 📚,” the doting grandma wrote.
Hopefully, Amber and Liz continue to share adorable photos of Leighton as she embarks on her second year!
