Lately I have been noticing new freckles popping up on the babies. When the babies were born they had little birth marks (not much bigger than a freckle). Heaten’s is on his left knee and Shenzie’s in in her unmentionable place. She got her second freckle on her back when she was about 1 1/2.

Her third freckle is on her right arm, her fourth on her side under her armpit.

I just noticed another tiny freckle on her left cheek for a total of 5. This month (March 2009) Heaten got his first freckle on his neck. And after freckle checkup I just noticed Heaten’s second freckle on his left temple. Where are they coming from?!?

The older I get the more freckles I get (or ouchies as Heaten calls them) and the more time I spend in the sun the darker they get (even wearing sunblock). I guess we’re all just doomed to have ouchies everywhere.

*On a completely different note - the girl on ANTM with all the freckles is adorable so I guess having freckles isn’t the end of the world.
