Brent's first post on the new blog

(Lincoln, Severin, Guy, Everett on our front porch swing)

Well we are just making the move to blogspot, hope you all made it here ok. Welcome. The old site just wasn't very accomodating technically. So welcome to our new home !!!

(some how Link didn't make this shot but Sevy is cheezing it so big had to include it)

The boys turned 17 months today!! can you believe it. They are all doing so well, walking, starting to talk, and happy as ever. Lincoln has learned this new maneuver when he isnt getting what he wants he walks away from you and lays down on his back on the floor then begins to yell as loud as he can. Our response is to lay down next to him. Needless to say this isnt the response he is looking for, he will learn. Guy our last one to start walking is now cruising and really getting good at stealing toys from his brothers. I'm thinking about getting him forearm shields, after he was bitten by Everett on the cheek he now has learned to protect his face with his arms, this is good but he always carries a few bite marks on each arm at any given time. Everett, our biggest and oldest one, what a character, such a happy boy. You know its odd he's only a couple minutes older than the last one but there is something about him that says I'm the oldest. He has learned to take off his diaper, which yep has caused a few waste management issues or so I hear. Severin, our little man is quite the curious little boy, stil the smallest but very advanced in just about every other way, he likes anything with buttons, especially my keys, phone, beeper, you name it. He fakes me out all the time running up to me with arms wide open then when he gets to me his arms go straight to my shirt pocket to see what gadget he can find, its hilarious.

Autumn is super mom, still doing it all by herself and still manages to look like the

'hot nanny." Me, Im almost done with my 1st year of residency, now onto my second year purely dedicated to neurosurgery. I'm looking forward to it. Gotta go....

Thanks for the visit... brent and autumn
