Dem Babies Are Officially 13! Cute Pictures of Mariah Carey and Her Twins Over the Years

Mariah Carey is officially a mother to teenagers as her twins celebrate their 13th birthday on April 30, 2024

Mariah Carey is a mother to teenagers!

The singer's twins Monroe and Moroccan, whom she shares with ex-husband Nick Cannon, turn 13 on April 30. And Carey, 55, has admitted the two — affectionately nicknamed Roc and Roe or Dem Babies — can be a handful.

"They're a lot, but they give me so much love in return. I wouldn't be the same person without them," Carey previously told PEOPLE. "I think Nick and I have done pretty well in co-parenting, staying friends with each other so that we can talk," she added of Cannon, whom she split from in 2015.

In commemoration of Dem Babies' 13th birthdays, see their cutest pics with their iconic mom.
