*Despite being in his second trimester of his 8th pregnancy, Mitch is still dealing with some morning sickness! Thank you to Emmypaige9147 for suggesting this! Please send suggestions and I'll try to write it! Enjoy! Love • Bree 🎀*

Today is Friday at the Grassi-Hoying house!

Mitch, Scott, Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer, Amelia and Joel are all awake and are dressed for the day!

Lately, Mitch, Scott, Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer, Amelia and Joel have all been staying in their pajamas for most of the day or all even day, since they haven't been going out much due to this virus.

However, Mitch, Scott, Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia all think and all agree that getting dressed for the day really helps them stay productive with their work, school work and house hold chores!

So that is what Mitch, Scott, Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer, Amelia and Joel have all been doing these past two weeks to make sure they keep up with everything despite being stuck at home due to this virus!

Right now, Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia are all playing in the playroom while Joel is happily playing with his baby toys in the living room by Mitch's side.

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

Mitch is laying on the couch, feeling pretty nauseous this morning. Mitch is in his second trimester of his eighth pregnancy but he still gets morning sickness a lot, which he really hates.

However, Mitch is very happy that baby girl is growing healthy and strong in there!

Usually with Mitch's pregnancies he stops having morning sickness at around thirteen weeks pregnant! However, he has also experienced morning sickness in his second trimester of pregnancies as well. This happened during Mitch's pregnancies with Joel, Amelia, Sophia and now this baby!

And in the kitchen, Scott is finishing up cooking breakfast, which is banana pancakes or chocolate chip pancakes, bananas and yogurt!

Scott also just fed Wyatt, Ollie, Tux, Daisy and Lucy their breakfast and all five of them are happily eating together!

"Kids! Kids! Breakfast is ready! Breakfast is all done! Come on and eat!" Scott says as he calls for Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia to come to the dining room to eat breakfast!

"Yay!" Amelia and Sawyer both say in unison as they both happily run into the dining room and sit down next to each other!

"Don't run! Don't run, you two!" Scott says to Amelia and Sawyer as Amelia and Sawyer both giggle and smile at Scott.

Then, Isabella, Sophia, Hudson and Liam all happily walk into the dining room and also sit down at the dining room table with Amelia and Sawyer.

"I made some banana pancakes and chocolate chip pancakes! You can choose which ones your want to have! And then I cut up some bananas and strawberries and all of you have a yogurt to eat! Enjoy!" Scott says to Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia happily.

"Thank you, Papa!" Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia all say in unison to Scott with big smiles.

"You're welcome, guys! Eat up!" Scott says happily to Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia with a big cheeky smile.

Scott then quietly walks over to living room, where he sees that Mitch is half asleep on the couch and Joel is playing with his toys on the floor.

Joel is happily playing with his baby blocks and he is drooling because he is currently teething. Joel then looks up and he see Scott, making his face light up and Joel smiles.

"Pa pa ba ba!" Joel says happily as he does grabby hands at Scott, making Scott's heart absolutely melt.

"Hi, bud! Hi! Are you hungry? Do you want some yummy breakfast too?" Scott asks Joel as he picks Joel up and kisses his chubby cheeks.

"Ba ba ba ba ba!" Joel says happily to Scott as he hugs Scott, making Scott smile.

"Aw! Thank you for the hugs, baby boy!" Scott says as he kisses Joel again.

Scott then begins to softly rub Mitch's back and slowly wakes Mitch up.

"Hmm? Oh, hi baby." Mitch says to Scott making Scott smile.

"Hi, Mitchy." Scott says as he softly kisses Mitch a few times, making Mitch smile ear to ear.

"Da da da!" Joel says with a big cheeky smile at Mitch.

"Hi, baby boy. Hi, happy boy." Mitch says softly to Joel.

"Breakfast is ready. Li, Huddy, Soph, Issy, Sawyer and Amelia are all eating their breakfast now. I made you some oatmeal for breakfast. I didn't know if you wanted pancakes and yogurt.

"Eww pancakes and yogurt sounds so gross right now." Mitch says to Scott and Scott giggles loudly.

"Aww, thank you, Scotty. I appreciate you helping out with everything lately." Mitch says softly to Scott

"Of course! That is my job as a husband and a Papa! Everybody is fine and the house is under control for now. You need to relax for a while. How are you feeling?" Scott asks Mitch as he rubs Mitch's head.

"I feel pretty good, minus to feeling really nauseous right now! Morning sickness is seriously a bitch this time around." Mitch says softly to Scott. 

"Aww, I am really sorry baby! I wish I could make it go away for you!" Scott says as he pouts sadly at Mitch.

"It's fine, Scotty. I will go away soon. I know baby girl is healthy in there and is growing a lot! It is worth it! And she has been kicking a lot! I have been feeling some flutters." Mitch says to Scott happily.

"Aww! That is so exciting, Mitchy! I can't wait to feel her move around really soon!" Scott says to Mitch with excitement.

"Me too!" Mitch says as he slowly gets up from the couch and he follows Scott and Joel into the dining room!

"Hi, Daddy!" Hudson, Sophia, Sawyer and Amelia all say in unison to Mitch with big smiles.

"Hi, Dad!" Liam says to Mitch with a cheeky grin.

"Hey guys! Is breakfast good? Did Papa do a great job?" Mitch asks Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia.

"Yes!" Liam, Hudson, Sophia, Isabella, Sawyer and Amelia all say in unison to Mitch with big smiles.

"Ba ba ba ba ba!" Joel says as he giggles happily.

"Mmm! Pancakes and yogurt! Mmm!" Scott says to Joel as Joel giggles.
