Trip Downtown

We have taken a few trips Downtown Portland now and we love it! It is such a cool place. There are old European style buildings on every corner. And yes, it is an older city so it is dirty in places and yes, there are lots of people smoking, unlike good old Utah. But it is still absolutely beautiful here with all the green trees and the ocean. I have always loved diversity and Portland Maine is where diversity is at it's peak. It is so interesting to see all the different cultures blend together in Maine. Here are a few pictures:


This is in front of an art market. There were so many cool paintings that we saw. But all were extremely overpriced in my opinion. 

Kelton was sleeping. He is the cutest! 
Kelton Alert: My little sweet baby has started to grab onto toys and entertain himself with them. He likes to put them in his mouth and everything else that is within his reach for that matter. We just place a bunch of toys by his sides and he finds them with his hands and then slowly and a little awkwardly brings them in front of him until they end up in this mouth. Such an adorable action to see! He also has started to suck on his bottom lip and it makes a clicking, almost chewing sound. It's another way that he entertains himself. Kelton also loves reading books. Or rather when Cameron or I read them to him. And we know that he loves it because he will either pay very close attention to the pages of the books, or will talk as we are reading, or will just wiggle his limbs in excitement.

Here, he is in action of putting the toy in his mouth. 
We also do lots of belly-time. Kelton has gotten so good at holding his head up. He could always hold it up, but now he can do it for a much longer time period.

And there is always that fist that tastes oh sooooo good!
