The U.S. Sun has obtained exclusive photos of Adam living a more quiet live in Sioux Falls compared to his days on reality television.
In the exclusive photos, Adam could be seen outside of the $112,000 home he purchased on Teen Mom 2 in 2016.
Adam could be seen checking his mail and blowing leaves outside of the four-bedroom, two-bathroom ranch house on Thursday, May 29.
He wore a hoodie, jeans and sunglasses for the brief outing.
An eyewitness exclusively told The U.S. Sun, "He seemed to be in good spirits. He was playful with the dog and even blew the leaf blower at the dog jokingly."
On Friday, May 30, Adam left his house in his black corvette and drove to a construction site.
In a second set of photos, he walked around the site and spoke with workers, as he appears to work as a construction foreman.
He wore a green t-shirt, cameo shorts and sunglasses for the outing.
His dog could be seen by his side as he walked around the site.

The insider told The U.S. Sun, "He went to a work site. He was smiling, having jokes with the workers.
"He walked around and checked the equipment out. He looked like the foreman of the site. He stayed for about twenty minutes before continuing with his day."
While Adam looks similar to his days on Teen Mom, he no longer has the six-pack he once did when he worked as a personal trainer.

TROUBLE WITH THE LAW
Adam, who was in and out of jail during his time on the show, stayed out of trouble for years until he was arrested on September 22, 2024 and charged with three counts of domestic abuse simple assault.
Starcasm reported that the criminal complaint read he “did intentionally cause bodily injury” to the alleged victim that “did not result in serious bodily injury.”
The U.S. Sun can confirm he pleaded not guilty to the three charges after his arrest.
The charges against Adam were dismissed by the prosecutor in December 2024, The U.S. Sun can confirm.
LAST SIGHTING
The last time Adam has been seen was in July 2023.
A family member posted a photo of Adam, and his daughter with Chelsea, Aubree, 15, celebrating the Fourth of July with his family.
The two were all smiles as they posed for the family photo.
As seen on Teen Mom 2, Chelsea and Adam had a tumultuous co-parenting relationship through the years.
Because of his legal issues, Chelsea fought for Adam to only be able to see Aubree at a visitation center.
On one episode, Aubree, who was eight at the time, was stood up by her father during a visit at the center.
BABY DADDY DRAMA
Adam also has a daughter named Paislee with his ex Taylor Halbur.
Adam signed away his parental rights to Paislee in 2018, despite seeming to have a close relationship with her on Teen Mom 2.
Taylor told The U.S. Sun in 2020, “He hasn’t reached out at all. I honestly could not tell you where he’s at. I haven’t heard a single thing about him.
"He’s a ghost.”
Taylor's husband, Joe Leonard, adopted Paislee.
But Adam has maintained a relationship with Aubree through the years.
Chelsea told The Ashley's Reality Roundup in 2023, "Honestly, everyone wants to know about our relationship and where it stands, and I totally understand that.
"It's a main question because it was such a huge story[line] of ours. Our relationship, it's fine. We're not best friends, but we're not enemies at all.
"If I were to see him, there would be no bad feelings at all."
Chelsea said Aubree's relationship with Adam has improved as well, as the teen now coordinates when she sees him.
"I think it helps that Aubree is a teenager now and there isn’t really a lot of having to work things out [for them]," Chelsea explained. "It really is fine."
