This week’s i heart faces theme is “Self-portrait” - YACK. I really don’t like to post photos of myself; but because I love i heart faces and would hate to miss out on a week, I picked out two that I didn’t look totally ghastly in : )
The first one is for the kids category and is of me and Jack at our town fair last August. I love how he is looking up at me like I am totally nuts…which I am, but that is another story for another time.
The second is for the adult category and is one you should recognize. It is my profile pic that I took when I won that cute little headband I am displaying. You can check them out and purchase your own at the “Feather by Feather” Etsy shop. Just be sure to tell her Melinda sent you : )

they are both cute, but i love, love, love that 2nd picture of you. It's so great, the colors, the shot, you! everything about it just makes me smile!
Melinda! Thanks so much for plugging my Etsy shop! The headband is so cute on you...and that picture ROCKS!
I love you in both of these ~ you are so dang cute! I have absolutely adored that profile pic since you first started using it. (I agree on the "yack" part of this theme though...I had the hardest time with this challenge.)
Super-cute entries Melinda!

Melinda, these are both so sweet. I love the look on your son's face!!! Kinda like, "what the heck is mom doing!"
I recognized your self portrait right away from your avatar!
The picture of you and your son is darling. I love the self portrait. I like how you have the framing of the mirror!
Just LOVE the mirror shot - might try that - I certainly am not having any luck with the long-arms method!! You do have a lovely smile - also something I have never mastered!! ;)

What great pictures! :-) I especially love the one of just you because that feather thing is fantastic and you look beautiful! ;-)
So cute! Love your self portrait.
cute pics! Love the one of your self portrait!I love the look on your sons face too! My children get that look a lot!! Great pics!
Very very cute - both of them. I love those kid on lap, arm outstretched, capture a moment type pictures. They are so wonderful to have later on.
They are both great! I love the 2nd in the mirror, very cute!
Okay, I've been waiting for this week because it's the week you're going to win! I love your self portrait and have loved it ever since you first posted it! SO cute!
Your pictures are so great! Love the sharpness of both.
love these - great color
I was hoping you'd use that picture of yourself! I love it! I am not sure what's going to happen for me this week. Unless I can find an old photo, I don't feel like displaying my allergy-ridden face!
Aww, those photos are so cute! I really like the one of you in the mirror. The look on your face is so great! And I love the color on the wall behind you.
And thanks for visiting my blog and taking the time to leave your kind comment. It's nice to meet you!
The second shot in particular is wonderful. I love the background color and the curve of the mirror frame. Lovely!!
So glad you didn't shy away from this week's theme! Isn't it rewarding to catch glimpses of our children's true opinion of our behavior? :) Your individual portrait is cute and perky. You seem like a gal that is up for most anything and would be a fun addition to a gathering. I am loving seeing everyone's face!
Melinda... my sentiments exactly when I realized the theme this weel! ;)
love your entries. they're both great. I love your self portrait... so cute. i actually love how the frame of the mirror frames the shot too.... and it's so crisp.

Hi there! You've been tagged over on my blog! ENJOY!
Too funny - I actually remember the original post where you won that headband!
And you are too cute! The expression on your son's face is priceless.
But gosh is it hard to hold those little ones into the frame of the picture! :)
A Turkish immigrant, college student friend whom I rowed with for two years, once told me that I would be worth more because I had freckles... I think he'd have the same to say about your adorable vintage feathers! Cute entries, and yes, your son is looking at you like you are nuts, awesome!
Your kids entry makes me smile and your picture is FABULOUS! The comp is lovely.
Ghastly? That word shouldn't even exist in your dictionary. You are beautiful. Super fun, fab photos!
Love the pic with the mirror. Great shot!
I just love that shot of you in the mirror. The colors and the look on your face are just perfect!
I never realized that your profile shot was a mirror shot, I had always thought that someone else had taken it of you. In any case, I love the creativity and the composition.
Great headband. I am off to go check them out right now! I'm always on the search for new cute headbands these days.
thanks for visiting my blog. Love both photos and especially love the second one...the colour on the wall in the background is one of my favourites.
How could you not like self-portraits? You are such a pretty woman. I might not be able to be friends with you anymore because of that:)
I like the self portrait. Very nice.
When I go to people's pictures for I heart faces and I see all the loving comments you have left it makes my heart happy! You are such a kind and thoughtful person. You make so many people's day. I love that about you : ). Oh, yes I do : )!
