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.

I have had a face full since I was little! I love them, and every time I see a crumb looking mark on Mason’s face, I hope it’s freckles, but it never is!

I have freckles everywhere! I’ve never had an issue with them. So I’m just waiting for them to pop up on M&J. So far the only one is Jackson has one on his family jewels!

Freckles are kisses from the Sun! It took me years to realize that they are beautiful and stop trying to cover them up…I used to think that someday maybe I would be tan by having them all join together! Nope, tan for me is pinkish beige…but I have tan spots! I don’t recall hearing about freckles on the unmentionables ever coming up before and here it is twice…your post and in the comments!
Your pics are great! The babies are adorable!
