“Not to be a Bieber about it but I too just gave birth to our son, Miles. From the moment we heard the first tiny sound out of his tiny piggy mouth we were besotted. He is the kindest, gentlest, smartest, funniest little beebee and he’s our best friend (pretty much exactly like his namesake Uncle Miles @younggoth)” Mae shared in the caption. The Miles in question is none other than Miles Heizer, her Parenthood co-star and on-screen brother who she has remained very close friends with over the years.

“We are infinitely grateful he chose us as his parents. thank you to @kaiserbente and @carynfields and everyone at @moxiebirth and @huntingtonhospital for guiding our little family through all the unexpected twists and turns safely and with love and grace and to everyone in our circle who has shown us such radical generosity and support. We love you! We’re so happy!♌️ ????????????” she added.
