*Will's mom, stepdad, grandma, RJ's mom and dad visit! Please send suggestions! Love • Bree 👑
Will and RJ's families are coming to visit for a few days! They are also going to meet baby Harlow for the very first time!
RJ is feeding Harlow a bottle in Harlow's nursery, while Coralei and Theodore are watching Netflix in Benji's bedroom. Benji is playing a video game on his iPad. RJ turns the camera on and vlogs himself and Harlow.
"Hi, guys! Happy Saturday! I am just feeding this beautiful little lady before our family arrives! They should be here in an hour or two." RJ says as he begins to burp Harlow.
Harlow gives a small burp, making RJ giggle. RJ kisses Harlow's cheek and wipes off her mouth.
"Will is taking a much needed catnap right now. Harlow was cluster feeding pretty much all night last night so Will didn't sleep much. Harlow is going through a growth spurt that's for sure! This girl is getting so big! Say hi, Harlow!" RJ says filming Harlow wide awake in his arms.
Harlow looks around and looks at the camera making RJ smile. RJ then softly kisses her cheek.
"Her eyes look like a bluish color to me! They may change but right now they look to be blue just like Will and Benji!" RJ says as he and Harlow walk out of Harlow's nursery.
*Benji, Coralei, Theodore and Harlow's outfits*
RJ hears Coralei and Theodore arguing about watching a Netflix show they were watching.
"NO! I was watching that, Teddy!" Coralei yells at Theodore and grabs the remote from him.
"NO! MY TURN!" Theodore yells at Coralei.
"Hey, Hey! Cut it out you two! You know we don't yell at each other like that. Daddy is sleeping and we need to be quiet. We also need to be on our best behavior, Grandma, Nana, Mima, Pipo and Pop are on the way! Let's go downstairs guys, let Benji have some privacy in his bedroom." RJ says as he, Harlow, Coralei and Theodore all go downstairs.
"Dobby!" Theodore says hugging Dobby's neck tightly.
"Hi, Dobby! Love you!" Coralei says as she kisses Dobby's cheek.
"Be gentle with Dobby, guys. Be careful." RJ says as he kisses Harlow's cheek.
RJ places Harlow in her swing and she yawns. RJ covers her up with her mint green and pink blanket.
Benji walks down the steps and plugs his iPad on the charger.
"Hey, bud! You didn't have to come down just yet. I brought Coralei and Theodore down so you can have some privacy in your bedroom." RJ says to Benji.
"I know! But I wanted to come down and play with the Nintendo Switch! I'm so excited for the new Mario Tennis game to come out!" Benji says with a smile, showing off his mouth with missing teeth.
"That game does looks fun! And okay, go ahead bud!" RJ says as he works on his laptop.
Benji begins to play Mario Odyssey and RJ watches in amazement. RJ loves video games but Benji plays them with ease. RJ thinks Benji should be a video game designer or something when he gets older.
Coralei and Theodore begin to color together while Harlow slept in her swing.
*****
Will walks down the steps forty minutes later and is very rejuvenated from his nap.
"Hi, babe!" RJ says with a big grin happy to see his husband.
"Hey, baby. I really needed that nap. Thank you for letting me sleep some." Will says kissing RJ.
"You're welcome! I know Harlow kept you up last night! Harlow has been pretty good! I just fed her and she fell right asleep." RJ says as Will smiles at Harlow and fixes her blanket.
"She loves to eat, just like Theodore did at this age. She literally wouldn't unlatch at all last night." Will says as he yawns and fixes his glasses.
"She's definitely having a growth spurt! I think she is too big for the newborn onesies now!" RJ says to Will.
"I think she is too. She's almost too tall for the newborn onesies too." Will says as he fixes his hair a little bit.
"Daddy! Papa! I finally beat this level of Mario Odyssey!" Benji says to Will with excitement.
"Awesome job, bubba! I know you can do it!" Will says as Benji hugs him tightly.
"Daddy!" Coralei and Theodore say in unison.
"Hi, guys!" Will says hugging Coralei and Theodore.
"Grandma, Mima, Nana, Pipo and Pop are coming so let's clean up the house okay?" Will says to the older kids.
"Okay!" Coralei, Theodore and Benji say in unison.
*****
Janice, Karen, Hank, Martha and Ricardo have arrived at the Shepherd-Aguiar house! They had just been bombarded by kisses and hugs from Benji, Theodore and Coralei.
"Where's the baby girl at?" Martha asks Will and RJ with excitement.
"She's in her swing taking her nap! She loves to stick her feet out of her blanket so don't cover her feet up. She will kick the blanket off." RJ says with a grin.
"Sounds just like her Papi!" Martha says making everybody laugh.
"It's really cute too." Will says as he grabs a few bottles of water for Janice, Karen, Hank, Martha and Ricardo.
Janice, Karen, Hank, Martha and Ricardo all walk into the living room and they see Harlow sleeping.
"Aww, she's so precious! She has a little tan on her! Is she jaundice?" Karen asks Will and RJ.
"Her bilirubin levels were checked yesterday at her two week appointment and she is just fine. She's just tan like RJ." Will says jokingly.
"Look at that hair! It's thick too!" Hank says with a grin.
"All that heart burn I had was so worth it! Her hair is very soft and like silk. It's beautiful." Will says to his stepdad.
RJ hands Harlow to Janice to hold first. Janice smiles for pictures with Harlow.
"How do you feel about having another great granddaughter, Janice?" RJ asks her as he vlogs her holding Harlow.
"I absolutely love it. She is so precious. Congratulations, boys!" Janice says to Will and RJ.
"Thank you!" Will and RJ say in unison.
Then Ricardo, Martha and Karen hold Harlow and take many pictures with her.
Hank holds Harlow and smiles up at Will and RJ.
"She looks just like Coralei did as a newborn. I almost called her Coralei!" Hank says with a giggle.
"That's what RJ said when he first saw her. I see it too." Will says petting Dobby.
"What color do you think her eyes are?" Martha asks RJ and Will.
"They look bluish to us! They are really pretty actually." RJ says.
Harlow begins to fuss and cry loudly.
"Aww it's okay, Harlow! Shh, shh." Karen says trying to console Harlow as Hank rocks her.
"She has been eating so much, my goodness. I'll get her a bottle." Will says as he walks into the kitchen to make Harlow a bottle.
"Growth spurt time!" Martha says with a grin.
"Oh yeah, this is a big growth spurt! The two week growth spurt is a tough one!" Karen says.
"It has been! Harlow has been wanting to eat constantly! But it's slowed down today." RJ says as Will hands Hank the bottle and Hank happily feeds Harlow.
"She takes a bottle well!" Hank says as he watches Harlow eat her bottle.
"She does! She nurses well too." Will says as he sits down.
"Are you excited to have a baby sister, Coralei?" Janice asks Coralei as she sits Coralei in her lap.
"Yes! I love Harlow so much!" Coralei says happily.
"How has Theodore been doing with Harlow?" Martha asks RJ and Will.
"Theodore has done really well! He was a little jealous a few days after she was born but he has been doing great since then. We are making sure to give him a little more attention so he doesn't feel jealous." RJ says as Will picks up Theodore.
"Benji! Let me see how many teeth you lost so far?" Ricardo asks Benji.
Benji smiles, showing Ricardo, Hank, Janice, Karen and Martha his mouth.
"Look at those big boy teeth! Wow!" Janice says with a grin.
"Wow! How much money has the tooth fairy gave you so far?" Hank asks Benji.
"Fifteen dollars!" Benji says proudly.
"Fifteen dollars! Wow! Are you saving to get something?" Martha asks Benji.
"I might get a video game or I might save it for something else!" Benji says happily.
"Maybe you can put it in your bank account!" Karen says to Benji.
"Maybe! I'm still deciding!" Benji says with s cheeky grin.
Theodore lays his head on Will's chest and yawns.
"Are you getting sleepy, Teddy?" Will asks Theodore.
Theodore nods and hugs Will. Will smiles and kisses Theodore's cheek.
"Theodore is literally a baby RJ it's so cute!" Karen says and Martha agrees.
"He really is, I love it." Will says as Theodore sucks on his thumb.
"Teddy, no." RJ says softly and takes Theodore's thumb out of his mouth.
"He loves to suck his thumb ever since we stopped the pacifier." Will says.
"I wouldn't let him suck his thumb." Martha says to Will and RJ.
"Maybe we shouldn't have stopped him so early, Coralei was two when we stopped her using it." RJ says.
"I think you guys made the best decision. I wouldn't give it back to him, that would confuse him." Karen says to Will and RJ.
"Pop! Pipo! Can we play Mario together?" Benji asks Hank and Ricardo.
"Sure, bud! Let me finish feeding Harlow." Hank says to Benji.
"Okay!" Benji says as Hank begins to burp Harlow.
"You have teach me what to do, okay!" Ricardo says to Benji.
"I will, Pipo!" Benji says with a grin.
Karen, Martha and Janice talk with RJ and Will while Hank and Ricardo play video games with Benji and Coralei. Harlow and Theodore are both taking a nap.
For the rest of the day and the next few days, Will, RJ, Benji, Coralei, Theodore, Harlow hung out with Grandma Janice, Martha, Ricardo, Karen and Hank. They had a lot of fun with their family! :)
