These Are a Few of My Favorite Things...

Kelton is fascinated by a few things around the house and he will consistently stare at them. Since newborn babies are supposed to see mostly high contrast things and have a very limited focus range, I tried to simulate what Kelton is seeing by taking these photos from his point of view, converting them to B&W and defocusing them. So here's Kelton's world of favorite things to stare at.

Sitting in his chair he loves to look out the door. Lately the weather has been really warm so he's been able to stare out the open door which is even better!

When he's on the couch he loves this view of the old oak tree through the window panes - even more than posing for the camera with the adorable Kelton piggy bank Auntie Sue sent him.

When Dad is holding him in the kitchen he's always staring straight up at the hanging lights. If David turns, Kelton will rotate his head as far as possible so he can still see them.

After a long day of staring we do get tired....

The other thing he's mesmerized by is the zoo mobile from Su-Lin & Dave. Since it's moving I've captured this on video and will publish the clip soon...
