Hi mlbjab. I deleted the links to your images because you have not yet earned the privileged to post links to external sites. In addition, there is no one here who can give you any interpretation of your moles simply by looking at their picture. The simple rule of thumb is: "If they have changed, you need to have a dermatologist look at them". I do know that moles can change color and even size with the aging process. But you still should go to a doctor.

My best wishes to you,
