//Closed as of yet...PM if you want to join.//
"Aaron!" Brent said, sighing. "How much spit-up do you have in you?" He asked as he set him and Jason down in their cribs so that he could grab some paper towels and clean himself off. Kira was crying in her cage crib and Brent walked over to her, throwing out the paper towels in a garbage on the way. "Hush little Kira...don't say a word...Kat is gonna...sing you a song..." He said, and then Jason starting crying. Where the heck is Kat? Brent looked around. Kat had the three others kids, Rebecca, Stephenie and Lance. "Help me..." He muttered, as he ran to get three pacifiers.
//I have no idea what I'm doing, so neither does Brent...how old should we say they are?//

//About a month...no more then that.//
Kat walked into the nursery calmly a baby on her back in a carrier and one in each arm as she was humming softly as she had just finished singing. She had gotten her three to calm down but if the other three didn't quiet down soon her three would be up again. She smiled putting them each in their crib before grabbing her wand, and flicking it as passifiers flew into the crying babies mouths. "Brent....a wand does help at times." She said with a small giggle. "And staying calm. Your stress is stressing them out....so calm down and take a deep breath." She said.

"Yeah, you're right...which reminds me, I need to run to Ollivander's..." Brent said, taking his slightly snapped wand out of his pocket. It was still able to be repaired, but only by someone who had a lot of skill in the area. Thankfully it hadn't been completely snapped. "Kira grabbed it from my pocket while I was changing someone's diaper...I think it was Jason's, but maybe Aaron's..." He said. "Merlin, I have a headache..." He added, mostly to himself, but probably loud enough for Kat to hear.

"Which is why you put a sticking charm on your wand to your wrist." Kat said with a sympathetic smile. "And honey, Jasson is the one who likes to burp while Aaron is the one who likes to poop." Kat said. She had this mother thing down to a science. Jasson liked to burp while Aaron liked to poop. Lance liked to whine while Kyra liked to grab. And Becca and Steph both liked to sleep a lot. "Take some headache potion, I picked some up earlier." Kat said, "It's in the bathroom cabbinet."

Brent disappeared and came back a minute later, seeming at least a little less stressed. "OK...so Jason poops, Aaron burps, Lance and Stephenie sleep, Kira grabs, and Becca whines?" He asked, all ready having forgot most of them...except Kira, he would ALWAYS remember Kira's...and so would his wand.

Kat gave a frustrated sigh, "I thought you were a Ravenclaw." She said, "Seriously...come up with your own system...but you need to be able to tell them apart." She said walking to Lance just before he began to fuss. She picked him up and walked around a bit bouncing him a tiny bit.

"OK, OK, fine..." Brent said, still utterly confused.
//Wait...so Becca and Steph are sleeping, Lance is being taken care of by Kat, and the other three have pacifiers?...or what?...I have a headache, totally brain dead.//

//Yeah pretty much.//
"You might want to watch Kira....she'll only be statisfied by the pacifier for so long." Kat warned.

Of course... Brent thought darkly. He looked over at Kira, who was spitting the pacifier out of her mouth and reaching up at him...how could he stay mad at her when she was so cute? He lifted her up and rocked her in his arms.

"By the way....puppies, kittens and babies need to be cute....it's a defense mechanisum...if they weren't...some wouldn't survive." Kat said with a smirk. It was something her mother told her and Lily while they were growing up.

"Yeah, I figured that out...I think...but it's a very effective defense mechanism..." Brent said, as Kira started smiling and laughing softly as he bounced up and down.
//That's exactly what I was gonna say...lol//

Kat laughed, "Yes, but why would we want to hurt you anyways?" She asked looking down at Lance and kissing his forehead in which he laughed and sort of clapped his hands.

Brent mumbled something under his breath, but put on a smile for Kat's benefit, and kept bouncing Kira.

"What was that dear....are you threatening your children?" She asked in a cheery voice.

"Nope, not at all." Brent said. Threatening...no. Disciplining...maybe. Brent thought jokingly. Kira laughed and spit up on Brent's shoulder. Oh great. He thought, setting Kira down in her cage crib again and getting some paper towels.

"We do have burp cloths for a reason." Kat said with a smile, laughter evident in her voice. She had helped out a lot with Gwen and Daisy since Chris had to work and Kate was busy also so this was all easy for her...Brent on the other hand....well....she'd have a bit of live entertainment for awhile!

"Burp cloths?" Brent asked cluelessly. "I know exactly what those are...but maybe you should refresh my memory..."

"A cloth you put over each of your shoulders so if a baby spits up it gets on the cloth and not you." Kat said with a smile as she put Lance down and picked up Becca who was waking up. She walked over and sat down in the rocking chair.

"Ah." Brent said, nodding. He watched Kat as he cleaned up his shoulder as best as he could, and decided not to share the picture he got in his head of an old Kat with a grandchild rocking in her chair...
//Gah...reminds me of my dog throwing up on me while we were in the car.//

"You know...again you could have used your wand instead of a paper towel." Kat said with a cheeky smile as she rocked Becca.

"You know, I should probably get to Ollivander's." Brent responded, trying to keep the annoyance out of his voice.

"Probably...but you aren't leaving me along with 6 kids and no help." she said with a smile as she rocked Becca.

"I'll call Ja-er, I'll call Emma." Brent said. He still had SOME common sense when under pressure.

"Smart move. Had you said Jake...I probably would have cursed you after you put the baby down." She said with a smile as Becca began to fall asleep again a smile on her face...of course...that could have been gas.

//He had all ready put Kira in her crib...but whatever.//
Brent set Kira down in her cage crib and went to the fellytone in the kitchen. Yes, he knew it was called a telephone. But he called it a fellytone for two reasons. It annoyed the hell out of everyone (although he knew when to stop while dealing with kat), and fellytone sounded so much cooler anyway.
He called Emma and she picked up after a few rings. "What?" She demanded, sounding more stressed than Brent. "Hey Em, I was just wondering if you could help Kat babies-sit while I went to Ollivander's...I need to fix my wand." "Now's not a really gre-" Emma sighed. "Yeah, I'll come." "You don't have to...I could always call Sarah." "Only if you want the poor things smothered in kisses and spoiled with presents." Emma said. "It's fine, I'll be right there." Before Brent had a chance to tell her that he could also ask Matt, the phone was hung up, and there was a ring of the doorbell.
Brent blinked at how fast she had gotten there and went to answer the door.
((OK...how to do this...OK, got it...lol))
He opened the door and saw Emma there, wearing a white shirt that didn't quite reach the top of her jeans, white sneakers and her hair was straight at the top, but curly starting about half way down. She stepped in.
//See sig...left side, big picture.//
