Alabama Barker's loved ones sent her all their best wishes in honor of her 19th birthday.

On Tuesday, Dec. 24, Travis Barker paid homage to his daughter with a sweet Instagram carousel that included both recent and throwback photos to show him and Alabama over the years. In the first slide, the social media star looked all grown up in a skin-tight animal print bodysuit.

"Happy 19th Birthday my angel," Travis, 49, began in his heartfelt caption. "I can’t believe I’m saying that. I’m so proud of you and I love watching you grow."

The Blink-182 rocker continued, "Never settle, the stars aren’t too far away. Never give up, never give in. I love you unconditionally. I love you to the moon and back."

His tribute post also featured a video of a younger Alabama — whom he shares with ex-wife Shanna Moakler — playing the drums, which Travis uploaded to his Instagram Stories as well, writing, "My twin."

Another one of Travis' posts showed glimpses of the festivities set up for Alabama's big day on Christmas Eve. He shared a photo of a "happy birthday" balloon arch beside a decorative "19" inflatable. Alabama also snapped a picture of the pink bouquet her dad sent. "I love you," she captioned her Instagram Stories post, tagging Travis.

Kourtney Kardashian Barker, 45, also took to Instagram to celebrate her influencer stepdaughter. "Happy happy birthday!" the Lemme founder wrote alongside a mirror selfie. "You are a blessing to my life!"

A second showed the pair posing for another selfie, with which Kardashian Barker promised "many more Bama and Kourt adventures."

In addition to his 19-year-old daughter, Travis is also dad to son Landon, 21, and stepdaughter Atiana, 25, who he also shares with Moakler. Last year, the musician and Kardashian Barker welcomed a son, Rocky Thirteen. The parents celebrated their youngest child's first birthday with a Disney-themed party this past November.
