Craig/Dad:

We love you :)

"Details..."

Well, Michelle and I did it - we FINALLY bought a boat. We've been looking at boats for about 3 years and if you know me - "Do it right, or don't do it at all". So, a little "Lefevre" got in me and I researched, and researched, and researched, and researched. We put an offer in on a Crownline, but that fell through; God said I didn't do enough research. He was right - AGAIN! With more research and some good connections, we got a smokin' deal on a much better boat - Regal 2200.

Grand Bay Marine just opened a store in Grand Rapids on Lake Michigan Drive. While negotiating with the sales person he was NO WHERE we wanted to be. I mentioned if you give me that boat for what we want to spend, I'll give you lifetime advertisement on the back of the boat. That's when the owner of Grand Bay Marine contacted me (no more middle man); it immediately became a tax write off for her. Long story short, if we were to sell the boat on the used market tomorrow, we'd make money on it easily.

Regardless, Michelle and I are super stoked for Summer. Now, if this snow would just melt and be gone with itself!!! Here is a link to some video tours of the boat: http://www.regalboats.com/2008/SportBoats/Bowrider/2200/VideoHighplay01
We chose the color "Mediterranean Blue Gelcoat with Desert Sand Boot Stripe". In "guy terms", it is Navy blue, with a grey stripe, white bottom.

The name of the boat?

Kylah's 6 Month Pictures

The above pictures are available at http://www.sadiesonline.com/. Give us a call, or send us an email to find out how to order some reprints if you're interested.

Sittin' up

Look everyone, I've figured out how to sit up now :). Just wait, I'll be crawling soon and pulling on Riley's tail before you know it....

First rollover!!!!!!

I can't tell you how excited Michelle and I are tonight and the fact that we were able to capture it on video for all of you to see. This is Kylah rolling over for the first day on her own!!! :)

Happy Easter!

Craig and I took Kylah to see the Easter Bunny this weekend, and she did very well! I was a sucker and purchased the ridiculously expensive 5x7 photo for her scrapbook because she's smiling in it. I'd post it here, but can't get the scanner to work. So you get to see the one we took on our camera in the mean time :)

So much love!

YYYYYYYYYYYYY

Updated Bath Picture

Couldn't resist; had to post...

HAHA!

This picture is from a couple weeks ago - and I don't know why I didn't post it sooner. It's too funny not to share with all of you! Side note: For those of you who don't know, you can click on the pictures we post to make them much bigger on your screen. This would be a good one to do that with :)

"Jump"eroo

I really wish I had a video camera out right now! Kylah taught herself how to actually jump in her jumperoo, rather than just bounce. She's jumping up and down like crazy and smiling from ear to ear! (This means mom can expect a nice long nap soon) :)

Yuck!

I do NOT like squash Mom!!!

Happy Valentine's Day

Look at the pretty roses Kylah got from her Dad today! Y

Happy & Healthy Again!

After a full week of being sick, Kylah is happy and healthy again! We are back to trying rice cereal with her - this round went much better than the first. She still wore half of it, but at least she was smiling :)

Sick Baby :(

Unfortunately, Kylah has been pretty sick the past couple of days. If you were to look at her (and listen to her) when she's awake, you'd never know it though. She is seriously the happiest little sick baby we've ever seen! We kept her home from day care today so she doesn't pass the flu around, so we stayed in our pj's all day and hung out.

The Next Stage

Kylah is definitely growing up! She's starting to hold her own bottle once in a while:
Kylah experienced her first round of cereal over the weekend too:

What do you think...did she like it?!
