*Mitch, Scott and the kids get everything ready because Joel is coming very soon! Send suggestions on what you wanna see! Love • Bree ❤️

Today is August 9th and Joel is due to arrive in just TWO WEEKS!

Mitch has been nesting like crazy lately! He is making sure everything is in perfect order and in their place for when Joel arrives!

Joel is arriving at a very busy time in the Grassi-Hoying family lives!

Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia all start school four days before Joel arrives and that is a huge adjustment to all of the Grassi-Hoying kids!

Liam is going into eighth grade, Hudson is going into fifth grade, Sophia is going into third grade, Isabella is going into first grade, Sawyer is going into kindergarten and Amelia is going into her first year of preschool!

Because Scott had a lot of trouble wrangling everything on his own when Amelia was first born, Scott and Mitch both decided that their parents are coming to town and stay with them for a few weeks!

Connie, Rick, Nel and Mike are going to help make sure all of the kids get to school on time and help take the kids to activities if any are planned!

This way, Scott can just focus on work, the house, the pets and Mitch and Joel.

Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia are enjoying their lasts weeks of summer vacation! But right now, they are doing their weekly chores.

Mitch decides to vlog his and his family's very busy day so the fans can see what they are up to!

Mitch and Scott haven't vlogged much this summer because they have been busy keeping their six kids entertained and making sure all of the kids had a very fun summer the best they can since they weren't able to go on a family vacation like they always do, due to Mitch's high risk pregnancy.

Mitch picks up his vlogging camera and begins to vlog himself sitting on the couch. Mitch smiles at the camera and smiles ear to ear.

"Hi, YouTube! Hi, there! Long time no see! I am so sorry that Scott and I haven't vlogged much this summer! We were planning to vlog but we have been so busy with the kids and now we have been getting ready for our new little one, Joel!" Mitch says as he rubs his baby bump and smiles.

"I am currently thirty five weeks pregnant! So, I have two more weeks until Joel is born! I am being induced earlier this time around two weeks earlier because of Joel being conceived even though my tubes were suppose to be tied and because Amelia was also born at thirty seven weeks and she was in some distress due to her cord being wrapped around her. My doctor just thinks that it is the safest to get Joel out at thirty seven weeks then prolonging the pregnancy any further then that. Thirty seven weeks is considered full term to most doctors and that he will be just fine! He may have to go into the NICU for a few days but he might not. Amelia wasn't in the NICU so I'm not expecting him to go in there. But he does, that's okay! As long as he comes out screaming and is healthy I'll be fine. A NICU stay will be a piece of cake compared to how stressful this pregnancy has been on me." Mitch says as he fixes his hair and rubs his baby bump.

"All of kids are currently helping me by doing their weekly chores! I will show them in a little bit, I know you guys really love to see all of the kids! Also, Scott is currently at the car dealership right now. Being at the car dealership is just a long hassle and annoying at times. I was going to go to the car dealership with him but Scott said that he can do it by himself so I can stay at home and get somethings at home done. I'll tell you guys later about why Scott is at the car dealership but you have to wait until when he comes home!" Mitch says as Sawyer opens up the screen door and Mitch looks at him happily.

"Daddy! I just cleaned up all of the dog poop that was outside!" Sawyer says with lots of excitement, making Mitch feel very proud.

"Did you, bud? That is so awesome! Thank you so much, Sawyer! Make sure you wash your hands!" Mitch says to Sawyer.

"Okay!" Sawyer says as he runs over to the half bathroom that is downstairs and begins to wash his hands.

"Hey, Hudson!" Mitch says, calling for Hudson from the living room.

"Yes, Daddy!" Hudson says as he walks into the living room and smiles at Mitch.

"Did you clean up Ollie and Wyatt's litter boxes?" Mitch asks Hudson.

"Yes I did, Daddy! And I gave them fresh litter in their little boxes too!" Hudson says to Mitch.

"Thank you so much, Huddy! I really appreciate it!" Mitch says to Hudson.

"You're welcome, Daddy!" Hudson says as he hugs Mitch tightly making Mitch awe.

"For those who don't know, you cannot touch cat litter when you are pregnant so that is why Hudson has been doing it for me! I am not sure why I can't touch the cat litter but I can't touch it until I give birth to Joel." Mitch says to the vlogging camera as he walks over to the laundry room.

*Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia's outfits*

"Let's see what the girls are doing in here! Hopefully, they are doing what they are suppose to be doing." Mitch whispers to the camera as he opens up the laundry room door slowly.

Mitch then vlogs Sophia, Isabella and Amelia all in the laundry room together and they are all folding towels! Well, Amelia is just watching Sophia and Isabella and is trying her best to "help".

"The girls are in the laundry room and they are folding towels! Awesome job, girls!" Mitch says to Sophia, Isabella and Amelia.

"Thank you, Daddy!" Sophia and Isabella say in unison to Mitch with big smiles.

"HI, DADDY!" Amelia says as she runs over to Mitch and hugs his legs.

"Hi, Amelia! Are you helping, Soph and Issy?" Mitch asks Amelia as he rubs Amelia's head.

"Yes!" Amelia says with a big cheeky grin.

"Daddy, where do you put the towels at?" Isabella asks Mitch.

"Yeah, Daddy! Where do you put them so they all fit? We have a lot of towels!" Sophia says to Mitch.

"Liam can put the towels away for you, girls! He knows where they go. Hey, Liam! Liam!" Mitch says to the girls and then calls for Liam.

"Yeah?" Liam says as he walks down the steps and walks over to the laundry room.

"Can you help your sisters and put the towels away, please?" Mitch asks Liam as he rubs Liam's back.

"Sure." Liam says as he picks up the towels and takes them upstairs to put them away.

"Are all of you done with your chores?" Mitch asks Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia.

"YES!" Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia day in unison.

"I'm done my chores too, dad." Liam says as he walks back down the steps.

"Awesome!" Mitch says happily to the kids.

Mitch then walks back into the kitchen and sets his vlogging camera down on the kitchen counter.

"Before Scott went to the car dealership today, Scott, the kids and I went to the grocery store and we are very well stocked up for about a month! I am so glad that we went to the grocery store now and instead of later in the week. I also feel better that grocery shopping is done and I can focus on other things like packing Scott and I's hospital bags and other things!" Mitch says as he begins to film the filled refrigerator and the filled pantry.

"We got way more food then we usually do when we go grocery shopping because my parents and Scott's parents are flying into town next week to help us out when Joel is born! They are staying with us for about two to three weeks depending on how I heal from the birth and everything. We are so thankful that they are all coming because a lot of things are happening the week Joel will be born and Scott and I need a lot of help with the house, the kids and our pets." Mitch says to the camera.

Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia all walk over to the kitchen and sit with Mitch and Mitch vlogs all of them.

"I am excited for Nana, Mom Mom, Poppy and Grampy to come over soon!" Sawyer says with a cheeky smile.

"ME TOO. I EXCITED!" Amelia says as she jumps up and down happily.

"I am excited too! And Nana, Mom Mom, Poppy and Grampy are all excited to see all of us and spend much needed time with all of us!" Mitch says to Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia.

"How long is Nana, Mom Mom, Poppy and Grampy staying with us, Daddy?" Sophia asks Mitch.

"Two to three weeks! It depends on how I am feeling after Joel is born." Mitch says to Sophia.

"Yay!" Sophia, Sawyer, Amelia, Isabella and Hudson all say in unison.

"It is going to be so much fun!" Isabella says with a cheeky smile.

"It is! But also, all of you need to listen to Nana, Mom Mom, Poppy and Grampy. They are going to be in charge for a little while while I recover and Papa helps me. Nana, Mom Mom, Poppy and Grampy are going to help you guys get ready for school and take you all to activities!" Mitch explains to all of the kids.

"I'm just excited to spend time with Nana, Mom Mom, Poppy and Grampy." Liam says as he fixes his hair.

"Me too!" Hudson says happily to Liam. 

Mitch hangs out and finishes cleaning up the house with Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia!

*****
Scott is FINALLY home after a few hours of being at the car dealership!

"Look guys! Papa got our new car today!" Mitch says to Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia as he vlogs them.

"WOAH!" Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia say in unison as they all run outside to look at the brand new car.

"Our new car looks so sick and so cool!" Liam says with a cheeky grin.

"Do you guys like our brand new car?" Scott asks Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia.

"YEAH!" Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia all say in unison to Scott with a big grin.

"I REALLY LOVE IT, Scotty! And yay! You got the color I really wanted too!" Mitch says to Scott as he hugs Scott tightly.

*2019 Nissan NV Passenger*

"I am really glad you love it, babe! I love it too and it drives amazingly! And I made sure to get the color you wanted, babe! Because I really know that this color was your favorite!" Scott says as he hugs Mitch tightly and kisses him.

Scott then sees the vlogging camera and then kinda panics, making Mitch giggle.

"Your vlogging, babe? Oh my gosh I look really crazy right now!" Scott says as he playfully hides his face and Mitch giggles.

"No, you don't! You look great, babe!" Mitch says as he playfully pinches Scott's cheek.

Scott then kisses Mitch's cheek and rubs Mitch's baby bump happily.

"Look guys! We got a brand new car! This is the 2019 Nissan NV Passenger! It can seat up to twelve people! We decided to get a bigger vehicle because the old vehicle we had only sat eight people and obviously we are going to be a family of nine, so we needed something bigger before Joel arrived! Also, with the extra seats the kids can bring friends along places with us as well!" Mitch says as he vlogs the brand new Grassi-Hoying vehicle.

"It is a BIG car! I don't even know if it fits in parking garages! We will see! But this is a perfect car for our big family! We are thankful to get a new vehicle before Joel is born!" Scott says to the camera.

"Ever since I found our I was pregnant, Scott and I both knew that we would need a new vehicle and we are so grateful to get it just in time for Joel's arrival! This vehicle is going to be great for us!" Mitch says to the camera as he kisses Scott and smiles at him.

"Who wants to take a ride in our brand new car?" Scott asks Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia happily.

"ME!" Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia say in unison.

Scott, Mitch and the kids all take a quick ride in their brand new car!

*****
Mitch is currently in his and Scott's bedroom and he is packing both of their hospital bags.

"I have a questions for all of our pregnant fans out there! Have any of you felt itchy during your pregnancy? For the past few days, My body has been itching like CRAZY! But it's mostly in my stomach and in my arms. I never felt like this in my other pregnancies and I don't know if the itching is just my skin stretching more or what it is! However, I go see my doctor in a few days so I will ask her what this is about. I'm sure it is nothing but I am not taking any chances. So, if any of you have experienced itching like I have, please message me on Instagram or comment below! I would love to know if anybody else has experienced this during pregnancy!" Mitch says as Scott hands Mitch the clothes he is bringing to the hospital.

"Is that all you are bringing, babe?" Mitch asks Scott as he puts Scott clothes in his book bag.

"How long are we staying in the hospital, babe?" Scott asks Mitch.

"Probably two to three days. You need more clothes this this." Mitch says as he smiles and giggles at Scott.

"Oh crap, I need more clothes then." Scott says as he walks back into his and Mitch's closet, making Mitch giggle and smile.

"You are so silly, babe." Mitch says as he smiles at the camera.

*Mitch, Scott and Joel's hospital bags*

"These are the bags we are bringing to the hospital! We will probably be in the hospital for two to three days. My hospital bag is from Saint Laurent, Scott's hospital bag is a Nike bag and Joel's diaper bag we got from Amazon! I really love Joel's bag! Joel's bag is really stuffed so I am not going to open it. But my bag is all packed for the hospital and I am just waiting for Scott to pack his bag up! Once that's done, we will be ready any time!" Mitch says with a big cheeky grin.

Liam walks into the master bedroom and sits on Mitch and Scott's bed.

"What time do we leave the house when you get your c-section, Dad?" Liam asks Mitch as he watches Mitch pack his and Scott's hospital bags.

"4am!" Mitch says to Liam.

"4am? What? Why? That is so freaking early." Liam asks Mitch in confusion.

"Because they have to put a bunch of monitors on me so they can check on me and on Joel, and then I gotta get a few bags of fluids and then I gotta get an epidural all before my c-section starts at eight. It takes a while." Mitch says to Liam and Liam yawns.

"You don't have to go if you don't want to, Liam. Papa and I both understand." Mitch says to Liam.

"No, I really wanna be there when Joel is born. Can I come in the operating room?" Liam asks Mitch.

"Dr. Moore said you can! But if it becomes an emergency c-section then you can't come in. But it shouldn't be an emergency. It is just a planned c-section." Mitch says to Liam.

"I hope I don't pass out." Liam says to Mitch.

"I hope you don't either! But if you do, there are nurses that will help you! Don't worry! Just don't look!" Mitch says as Liam giggles.

"Oh, Liam! Tell the camera! I didn't tell them yet." Mitch says to Liam as he vlogs Liam sitting behind him.

"I am going to be there when Joel is born. I am actually going to be in the operating room." Liam says as he smiles and fixes his hair.

"Liam really wanted to witness his baby brother being born so I got permission a few weeks ago from my doctor to let it happen! She thinks it is great that he wants to see Joel be born! Are you excited, Liam?" Mitch asks Liam as he vlogs Liam.

"Yes, but I don't wanna pass out and embarrass myself." Liam says Mitch and the camera.

"Well, if Papa didn't pass out you won't. Don't worry! And a lot of dads pass out so nurses expect it." Mitch says to Liam and Liam giggles.

"I know this was a short vlog but I got a lot of things I have to do. We will definitely vlog when my parents and Scott's parents arrive and the night before Joel arrives! We will see you all then! Bye!" Mitch says as he waves goodbye to the camera.

"Bye." Liam says as he waves.

Mitch posts a picture of himself in front of the mirror and showing off his bare baby bump. He writes the caption as: "Only two more weeks until Joel arrives. I am so ready to have this baby boy in my arms! 🤰🏻"

Scott posts a picture of Liam, Sawyer, Hudson, Isabella, Sophia, Amelia, Mitch and himself all sitting in their new car. He writes the caption as: "We are that big of a family that needs a big vehicle! @mitchgrassi and I are so excited for our fourth baby boy to be here! Only two more weeks! 🥰"
