Well, as you can see this blog was not a very successful attempt at keeping up with the Durbin household, but I will try again. A lot has happened since the last time I posted. We had a new baby girl names Annabel. She is truly the light of our lives at this moment. She is a bigger blessing than I could ever of imagined. She is a very good baby. She has been sleeping through the night since she was three weeks old. I didn't even know that was possible. The boys absolutely adore her. I have to pull them off of her because they want to love on her too much. I never thought the transition would be so easy on all of us. Eli has started first grade at a new school. He is adjusting well. It was a little difficult for him at first, but he is getting the hang of it. He's riding the bus now, which helps mommy out a whole bunch. Landon started four year old preschool with Mrs. Marilynn. which he loves. He waited to start school for so long. He truly is enjoying it. Landon excellent at coloring. We are so proud of both the boys for doing so well in school. Hopefully, I will be able to make more frequent posts for here on out. We shall see.

Last Day of Summer

Today, is our last day of summer. We went to the last free movie of the year, which was Madagascar 2. It's really cool how our local movie theater does free movies during the summer for the kids. We have quite thoroughly enjoyed them. We then went to eat with Daddy at Pizza Hut. The boys really enjoyed it. Since Eli is starting kindergarten we now have to worry about bringing a lunch/buying a hot lunch, bringing a snack, wearing tennis shoes on PE days, remembering to bring our library books back on library days, and making sure I am in the correct line at pick-up time. I am definitely more concerned about these things than Eli is. Sadly, I have given little to no thought of Landon starting preschool. I don't know why that is. Maybe because he has the same teacher Eli had, and I feel like I know what to expect. However, Landon is completely different kid so I am sure he's going to throw a curve ball in there somewhere. I know I will miss Landon tremendously when I have to come home tomorrow without him. I used to dream of the day when both boys would be in school when the boys were really little; however, as the days went on I quit dreaming and started dreading. I don't quite understand it. It's a perfectly normal thing to send your children to kindergarten and preschool, but I feel guilty about it. I feel like they are my responsibility and I am handing off my responsibility to someone else. I haven't felt that way the last two years Eli was in preschool. Probably because I still had Landon home with me. Anyways, I am sure once we all get a hang of things that guilt will go away. All that said, I am truly excited about this new era we are starting in the Durbin household.

My first blog post.

I am just seeing how this thing works. Hopefully, more to come later.
