Spray Park Fun

Summer has officially started! We headed to the spray park today, which is one of Miles' favorite summer things to do. The girls were a little skeptical at first, but after a few minutes, they were loving it! Miles was running around with the big kids, while Marley and Maggie stayed in the shaded area trying to figure out where the water was coming from. Oh, to know what was going on in those little heads of theirs! We did have one casualty, but Miles took it like a champ. He and a 10 year old little boy collided with one another and the funny thing was Miles was still standing, but the big kid was the one that fell to the ground. Maybe a potential lineman in the future ?!?!

Marley loved it by the end!

Miles kept his hat on for maybe 5 minutes. At least I tried!


Maggie is all smiles



Marley at the beginning not so sure about this

Team Leavell is back!

I know that it has been forever since I have written anything about anything, but can I just say, life with three mobile kids is crazy! Where did the days of the bouncy seats and exersaucers go? This past year has flown by! Chase and I were just talking the other day about the day we got the phone call from the NICU saying that we could finally bring Maggie home. It was one of the best days of our lives! She was so small and fragile- wow, how things have changed.
Miles turned 3 at the beginning of May and has the most amazing imagination. I have no clue where he comes up with these things! At night, he loves for one of us to tell him a story, which he ends up constantly interrupting to put his spin on the story. He really should be the one telling the story!
The girls turned 1 at the end of February. They are saying a few words that we understand, but they sure do have lots to say to one another. Our pediatrician said that if we had a linguist come in and study the two of them, he would tell us that they really are communicating with one another. Amazing! Maggie is walking now and Marley is RUNNING! She spends most of her day chasing Miles around the house, which is hilarious!
So much has gone on these past few months, I am not really sure what to tell and what not to tell, but the most important and wonderful thing is that we are healthy, happy, and truly blessed!
