Faces

February 4, 2010

He is feisty
and he’s thoughtful
and he’s stubborn
and he’s my helper
and he laughs at my jokes and
I laugh at his


He’s my big boy
who just had tiny newborn feet ten minutes ago
it seems…


he’s my Miles
and I’m crazy about him.

He even loves my stories
about a little boy named Jiles
who loves
pickles
and turns green
and grows wings
and flies over the backyard fence…


He’s got many faces
and I’m the one who
gets to see them,
really see them.

~~~~~~~

Let’s not forget this face,
my Asher


Seriously.

You are a lucky woman!

I'm surrounded by boys, too. Of course I wouldn't have it any other way. Great Shots! I think each picture showed a real aspect of their personality by the look on their little faces.

Kazzy February 4, 2010 at 10:33 am

Are your kids good-looking, or what? Love Miles' eyes.

Elaine A. February 4, 2010 at 10:34 am

Those are some darn cute faces! Love Asher's big smile and Miles' how shall I say… uh… SILLY FACE! :)

K Mommy February 4, 2010 at 10:35 am

Very cute kiddos! Great pictures!

5thsister February 4, 2010 at 10:36 am

What sweet sweet boys! Beautiful pictures too!

Kristina P. February 4, 2010 at 10:42 am

They are both very, very adorable.

Kirsten February 4, 2010 at 10:42 am

Cuties! All of them! I love the glasses! My youngest wore them for a year and I miss them now that she doesn't need them anymore!

Sabrina February 4, 2010 at 10:49 am

So cute!!!

I drove by your exit off the highway the other day. It's weird to think you were not there. I still waved and said, Hi Heather's old house!

Miss you!

Sidnie February 4, 2010 at 10:51 am

Could your boys be any more handsome?? I'm thinking they're gonna be heartbreakers! :)

Lee of MWOB February 4, 2010 at 10:56 am

I only thought I would want to eat my own kids. But I kinda want to eat yours too.

Sorry.

What a sweet post!! He is adorable. And I would have thought my oldest was a teeny tine=y baby ten minutes ago too. :)

AmyLK February 4, 2010 at 11:13 am

Love this post! The photos and the writing.

Kimberly February 4, 2010 at 12:14 pm

If I ever have boys I hope they're like yours – the love you express for them here is practically contagious…

Jo@Mylestones February 4, 2010 at 12:24 pm

Dear Miles & Asher,
I'm giving you a citation for exceeding lawful limits of cuteness. I'll let you off with a warning this time. But you better stop speeding through the whole growing up thing, mkay?

FireMom February 4, 2010 at 12:37 pm

These are wonderful shots. And a great post. :)

~Mendie~ February 4, 2010 at 12:40 pm

so cute Heather! I adore his little glasses.

WackyMummy February 4, 2010 at 12:42 pm

Those are sweet. =)

H-Mama February 4, 2010 at 12:56 pm

A great capture, Heather. And your new header is simply adorable.

mandiegirl February 4, 2010 at 12:57 pm

Megryansmom February 4, 2010 at 1:04 pm

Hahahaha the last two made me laugh!

Beth at I Should Be Folding Laundry February 4, 2010 at 1:28 pm

I love these photos and your words. And your new header and your tagline.

And I love you so so much.

tiddlyompompom February 4, 2010 at 2:49 pm

Melissa February 4, 2010 at 3:46 pm

Great shots, I like that they're not actually looking at the camera in most of them.

Baby Mama February 4, 2010 at 3:58 pm

lovely, handsome, little men!

L.T. Elliot February 4, 2010 at 4:32 pm

Beautiful faces. Beautiful mom.

Saj February 4, 2010 at 4:38 pm

Great captures of those little men of yours! I'm also surrounded by little men, and I love it!

Aren't little boys just the best?? Great shots!!

Such beautiful faces. Beautiful! Love this post.

*MARY* February 4, 2010 at 7:07 pm

What a sweet post. Your kids are adorable.
Maybe I should stop thinking of ways to punish my kids and just give them hugs instead.

becca February 4, 2010 at 8:36 pm

Priceless photos. Priceless faces. Priceless words. i could stare at the little faces in my house All Day Long. Aren't we lucky?

Corinne February 4, 2010 at 9:36 pm

Oh my word they're precious :)

Chief February 4, 2010 at 11:25 pm

Mammatalk February 4, 2010 at 11:26 pm

Look at those baby blues!

Melanie J February 4, 2010 at 11:42 pm

I don't know why, but every time I see a picture of Asher in his glasses, it makes me happy.

Arizona Mamma February 5, 2010 at 1:04 am

Saw you at the Blog Frog, and I thought I'd ask you to dance. Not really. I just couldn't resist after I began my sentence that way.

What I was going to say, is that your blog name intrigued me. I love it! Also, love this post.

Ellie February 5, 2010 at 8:23 am

Beautiful pictures, beautiful kids! They are all great -but that second picture of Miles is amazing. And Asher has the most infectious smile I've ever seen!!

-Ellie

imadramamama February 5, 2010 at 9:37 am

Those are great pictures, but that last one is awesome. I love those little glasses!

I'm going to steal him, I can't take it.

I love your new blog design!

Haley February 5, 2010 at 2:22 pm

They are such cuties!

Debbie February 5, 2010 at 7:29 pm

Like either of those faces could ever be forgettable!

Lena February 6, 2010 at 12:15 am

Beautiful shots! I especially love the last one. The colors, the angle, the crispness of it. Phenomenal.
You have a very handsome little man!

Kate Coveny Hood February 6, 2010 at 4:42 am

They are both just precious!

Krista February 6, 2010 at 11:46 am

Oh goodness that Asher! Be still my heart! Darling captures!!

Motherboard February 6, 2010 at 11:16 pm

He is simply delicious!

Tooj February 7, 2010 at 9:27 am

I've been absent from these parts for too long. :) But I knew eventually I'd catch up. It might be done in parts, but it'll be done.

All the faces we see are definitely something to stop and ponder. I worry sometimes that I MISS some of them, and don't fully grasp the layers they're developing. Thanks for the reminder to pay more attention.

tara February 7, 2010 at 10:58 am

they are too precious. nice new digs, by the way! (i've not been making the rounds enough lately.)

Sahne February 7, 2010 at 11:24 pm

They both look so fun and full of energy! Beautiful children! Great captured faces.

Jessica February 9, 2010 at 2:56 am

These are just precious! Thanks for the reminder that I am the one who gets to see all those faces of my kids . . . I need to slow down and love em.
