Jenelle, 29, shared a special on Saturday of a recap of her Thanksgiving spent with family.
The reality star filmed her various dishes for the feast, including a turkey roasted with seasoned butter, cornbread, green bean casserole, creamed spinach, mashed potatoes with bacon, deviled eggs, and rolls.
The TV personality also shared clips of her three kids, Jace, 12, Kaiser, seven, and Ensley, four, as they enjoyed their holiday meal.
However, fans were more focused on how "grown-up" Jace looked, after watching his birth on MTV over a decade ago.
The pre-teen looked mature in a tie-dye tank top with a blonde cropped haircut and bangs.
"Omg look at Jace!!!! He's grown so much," one follower gushed alongside a heart emoji.

"Jace is so grown wow," a second agreed, while a third commented: "Oh my goodness Jace is grown!!!"
Another remarked: "Oh my god look at Jace, he has grown so much," alongside several crying emojis.
A final noted: "Your kiddos have grown girl."
FAMILY UPDATE
Jenelle's holiday montage clip followed her exclusive conversation with The Sun this week about her two sons and the status of their ";behavioral issues."
Earlier this year, the former MTV star revealed her eldest child had set fire to his grandma Barbara's house, and Kaiser had been booted from two schools.
Jenelle told The Sun on Saturday: "Kaiser is doing very good. Jace is having some issues at school and at my mom's house, which I can't go into detail about because there's a pending custody case but Kaiser's doing much better in school.
"He had to repeat kindergarten twice, basically. And the first time he was too young. The second time, he kept getting in trouble. So I was like you know what I'm going to hold him back myself so now he's in first grade and he's doing great. And he's actually learning and not running around the classroom and doing cartwheels."
The ex-MTV star continued: "I think Kaiser just had too much energy and they would have quiet reading time and the teacher would be reading a book, he would be the one in the background doing flips and cartwheels, getting in and out of his chair.
"He would be like, 'I'm going to the bathroom' without asking. So he's just calmed down a little bit."
She added: "Kaiser's now more into figuring out what they're learning. He's more focused."
also revealed she believed her boys' previous issues were due to both just needing to "mature."
BASHING BARBARA
While Jenelle currently has custody of Kaiser, who she shares with ex Nathan Griffin, her mom, Barbara, has primary physical and legal custody of Jace.
"We only talk when it's to pick up Jace and drop him off, I pick up and I get him like every other weekend," Jenelle said of her relationship with her mom.
"I'm more standoffish to my mom, because of what's going on, and I want to keep the conversation about Jace, and she tries to have it about other things.

"And when I try to bring up Jace, she just totally ignores me about the topic. So we're butting heads right now, and it's not really going anywhere."
"That's why we were gonna go to court, to figure it out," she concluded.
