Leaving Comments

Hi All,
I have heard the complaint many times that you can't leave a comment unless you have a google account... that isn't true.

All you have to do is fill in your comment in the comment box and you can write your name in there if you want us to know who you are, then underneath the google id log in, there is an option to click on making the comment anonymous. You can click that and it will let you post a comment without a google account.

Let me know if you have questions:)

Summer is here!

Friday night I laughed for mommy and daddy for the first time and they were able to catch it on video! It made their night and I got lots of hugs and kisses for doing it. I don't get what the big deal is but it seems to make them happy!!!

Summer is here and we celebrated this weekend by having a sleepover at Auntie Steph and Uncle Jeremy's house after their BBQ. It was the best weekend full of black jack, chocolate chip cookies, old and new friends, my besties, and breakfast all together. Mommy and Auntie Steph even got to go out and see a movie while us kids stayed in Daddy Day Care.

When they got home, this is what greeted them at the door....

Front View (please take note of the high heel shoes and the Hat is courtesy of me... it's size 3 - 6 months)

Back View - she also had Daddy in Katie's other hat (pink leopard print)... but somehow we didn't get a picture of that.

Braydon was wearing his hat too!!!!

Happy Monday everyone!

Happy Fathers Day!

Here I am ... just waiting for the sun and pool to be ready for me;)

I don't see the connection at all... but look and decide for yourself if I look like mommy.

Me and my daddy out at dinner for Fathers Day!!

Me and daddy in our matching t-shirts (his daddy's day present)

My daddy is the best daddy in the world. He takes such good care of me all of the time. Even if he just had a long day at work, he will come home and feed me and play with me and hug me when I'm crying. He gives me baths, (even though I splash now) and sometimes he even plays guitar for me. I love him SO Much and hope that he had a nice and relaxing First Fathers day!!!

Just wanted to say hi!

Here is my first video from our new cool camera:)

Happy Thursday

Big Girl Room

Check out my big girl room in our new place.

Here is the door to my room - we have more animals to add - but it's a start:)

Here is my big girl closet... it's the nicest closet in the apartment and also the fullest - Mommy is jealous of my wardrobe, but she swears she won't steal any of my clothes like Mimi steals hers sometimes:)

Here is one side of my crib area... Auntie Jess... check out the cool sign u made me... now I get to keep a piece of my first room forever since you used the paint that daddy used to paint my room in the old apartment:)
Here is my crib area and my awesome glider chair. We have daddy's old Pooh blanket from when he was a baby on there and I look at it when I'm getting burped.

And here is my play area. Look at my awesome garden that Mimi and Aunt Stephanie made me and all the toys and books in my bookshelf. You can also see my cool couch.

Here I am sitting on my SUPER cool couch that Aunt Stephanie and Uncle Jeremy bought me as a housewarming gift. It'll be perfect for my best buddy Morganne to sleep on when she stays overnight cause it opens up into a little bed.

So, that's my room. It's done now and mommy and daddy will work on finalizing their room next as it's the last room they left to work on. I am sure some of you are jealous of my awesome room, but don't worry if you come visit me - I'll let you play with me in my room.

Happy Weekend!

Loving our new apartment

We just thought we would share some new pics since it's been awhile and we've been busy.

Mommy and daddy just bought a super new camcorder that will be perfect for uploading video to the web with the cool gift card that grammie and grandpa gave us for Christmas.... so once we check out the software, we will add more video:)

Since we have a balance on the card, mommy is going to order me a super cool book or toy called a Taggie... I love rubbing the tags on my books, etc.... and these toys are supposed to be great soothers and this morning I fell asleep rubbing the tag on my book, so we are going to order a toy and try it out:) They even have blankets so depending on how the toy goes, we might get one of those....

Thanks grammie and grandpa!

Here I am right before I fell asleep - rubbing the tag on my cloth book. I love soft, cloth books.

Here I am sitting with daddy watching tv:)

And here are more cereal pictures. I LOVE RICE CEREAL - mommy bought me organic rice cereal so when I finish my first box, I'm gonna try that.

Happy Wednesday everyone!!! Hopefully things will settle and we'll have more time to post soon!

Mommy is going to see New Kids on the Block with Jackie this weekend... so perhaps there will be some pics of that as a treat!

P.s. we want to send a special "shout out" to our favorite southern boy Lukie, who broke his leg yesterday at the playground. Poor baby has a cast up to his thigh and we are making a package to send him with some books in it so he can cuddle on the couch and read since he's not supposed to walk for at least weeks. We're thinking about you buddy!!!!

Our New Home!!!

This is one half of our living room - the other half currently has a few boxes and will eventually be a craft/guitar/play area for the whole family:)

These are pics of Kaitlyn's room - lucky for us the room was already purple.

Here are Kaitlyn and Dave in our kitchen... he came to visit us for lunch and she sat in the kitchen in her high chair to visit:)

Here I am after breakfast this morning 'chillin' in my high chair - this is my preferred way of sitting at the table with the adults.

Yesterday Auntie Steph, Uncle Jeremy and the kids came over to see our new place. Mimi and Grumps came too and we had a great time visiting with everyone and showing them our new home. The grown ups played Wii and me and Braydon played together while Morganne helped unpack my clothes and looked for the choo choo. She loves the big water fountain in the park across the street so we had to go see it twice yesterday. I think we're going to go see it again today too:)

Happy Sunday!

I rolled over!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Me in my Memorial Day dress and flag from the Irvington parade.

All the dads after dinner and taking a quick break from packing the Payne's truck.

Me in my super cool high chair!

It has been a VERY busy few weeks for us Metcalfe's.

We are signing in from our awesome new apartment in Lyndhurst, NJ after a graduation party, a moving sale, helping the Payne's move out and packing ourselves up and going to Morganne's 2nd birthday party.

Daf saying goodbye to Luke - notice the pj's and SHOES!!

Jeremy collecting all of Morganne's presents for her.

After the truck was packed - before they left us:(

Here are some quick highlights from the past few days:

* Kaitlyn has learned how to roll over - I went in to her room and looked in her crib and she was on her belly:( We missed it.

So, of course we tried to watch her for like half an hour after that and she wouldn't do it.... so we left it alone and then later on today she was on the floor and Dave and I were looking for the computer cords to put up a posting and she did it again while we weren't watching:(

So... we sat and watched her for another 20 minutes and she FINALLY did it for us... we'll get a video and hopefully post it sometime this week.

* Kaitlyn has reverted back to getting up every 3 hours at night, which sucks for us... she isn't sleeping so we aren't sleeping. She doesn't want to eat during the day, but then she's up all night to eat - so we decided to start trying her on food, in hopes that it would help with the eating at night thing.

We think she kinda likes it:)

* Kaitlyn has an AWESOME big girl room now. The room is bigger than we remembered it being when we looked at the apartment originally so we are happier than you can imagine! There is space for a play area in her room and a place for a play area in our large living room. We will post pics from the apartment once we have a chance to take some and we are done unpacking.

Happy Wednesday Night!
