One can always count on the "Love in the Time of Monsters" actress to be in awe of her cuddly little son. This time, she dazzled her three million Instagram followers with a 6-frame slide of herself and the little cutie.

The first and second snaps saw the mother-son duo in what looked like a fancy restaurant. She donned a Louis Vuitton jacket with diamond accessories and left her highlighted blonde hair, with braids on the side, to flow down her shoulders.

Her adorable son wore a blue-colored onesie with a matching beanie. The third snap, however, showed the loving mother with two friends, who looked fashionable in their outfits, while Tristan lay in his stroller.

A swipe to the right displayed a solo shot of the reality star's three-month-old baby. The young one wore black and white apparel with a black headdress that had the words "Little Man" on it. Tristan looked with his big doe eyes.

As expected, another picture in the carousel showed how much of a doting mother Heather is to her son. In this image, the 35-year-old held her baby boy, dressed in a black and white onesie, to her chest as she posed for the shot. She donned a two-piece grey sweatsuit, black face cap, and white sneakers.

The picture's background featured a minibar with multiple drinks and flower pots. The final slide showed an endearing moment when the 2010 "Playboy Playmate of the Month" in a grey and black robe-like outfit kissed the crown of her son's head while crawling him.
