*The kids, Avi and Kate meet Annabelle! I hope you guys enjoy! Love • Bree 💕*

Esther rocks Annabelle as Darien sets up the bassinet for her so she can take a nap. Esther had to change Annabelle's onesie since she had a huge poop explosion.

"She is such a doll baby. She is absolutely perfect, more perfect in person." Darien whispers as he finishes building the bassinet.

"She really is. She is fast asleep in my arms. She must love to sleep on people, which is fine with me." Esther says as she kisses Annabelle's cheek.

"Mama! Daddy!" Hana says as she runs in from her bedroom.

"Hey, Hana bear! You climbed out of your crib, missy! Do we need to make your bed a toddler bed?" Darien says as he hugs Hana tight.

Hana giggles as she plays with Darien's hair, pulling on it and messing it up.

"Hi, Mama!" Hana says as she looks at Esther in confusion as she sees Annabelle sleeping in Esther's arms.

"Hi, Hana! Did you take a good nap, sweety?" Esther says as she rubs Hana's cheek.

"Uh huh! Baby doll!" Hana says as she looks at Annabelle and rubs her head.

"This is your new baby sister, Hana. Not a baby doll, silly girl. Her name is Annabelle. What do you think?" Esther says softly as she gets on Hana's level, showing Hana her baby sister.

Hana smiles at Annabelle and rubs her head, slightly too hard.

"Gentle, Hana. Be gentle with baby Annabelle, okay? We have to be very soft with her." Darien says as Hana smiles happily. 

"Good girl. Good girl, Hana. You are a big sister now! Yeah!" Esther says in a whisper.

"Belle Belle!" Hana says as she smiles.

"You can call her Belle if you want. That's a cute nickname for her. I have to agree with that! Her name is Annabelle. Annabelle Eden Koop." Esther says.

Esther smiles at Darien happily. Esther is very relieved that Hana loves her baby sister and isn't jealous at all.

- The Next Day -
Annabelle had a great first night at home! She only woke up twice to eat and needed a diaper change. Hana loves to watch Annabelle and even tries to play with her.

*Hana and Annabelle's outfits*

Darien is cleaning up the house a little bit and let's Sebastian in the house from outside.

Annabelle begins to cry in her swing and Hana gets concerned.

"Mama! Belle sad!" Hana says as Esther walks in with a warm bottle.

"She's just hungry, that's all Hana. Come here, Annabelle. Mama is here with a nice warm bottle for you." Esther says as she picks up Annabelle and begins to feed her.

Hana watches Esther feed Annabelle a bottle. Hana kisses Annabelle's head and rubs it.

"Good girl, Hana. Being so sweet and gentle with Annabelle! And Annabelle was hungry! Good girl, Belle." Esther says as Annabelle opens her eyes.

Darien walks in seeing three of his ladies together, sitting on the couch.

"Daddy!" Hana says as she runs over to Darien, hugging him.

"Hey! Are you helping Mama feed Annabelle?" Darien asks Hana.

"Uh huh! Belle was sad!" Hana says.

"Aw. She was just hungry but she's happy now." Darien says as he kisses Hana and Annabelle's cheeks.

An hour later, Kate, Avi, Tobias Israel, Ezra, Wren, Jasper, Evalina, Noah and Gabriel arrive.

"Hi, Mama and Daddy!" Evalina says as as runs over to Esther and Darien.

"Mama! Daddy!" Gabriel and Noah say in unison as they take their shoes off and run in the house.

Kate, Avi, and their kids are still getting out of the car.

"Hey! Did you guys have fun at Auntie Kate and Uncle Avi's House?" Darien asks the kids.

"Yeah! We played and had fun!" Noah says as Gabriel jumps up and down.

"They have a huge train table, it's so cool!" Gabriel says.

"Woah! So neat! Auntie Kate told me about the train table her mom brought for the kids." Esther says.

Evalina hugs Hana and Hana points to Annabelle with excitement.

*Evalina, Gabriel and Noah's outfits*

"There's a baby! A baby!" Evalina says as she gasps and smiles brightly.

"Surprise!" Esther and Darien say in unison.

"A baby! Hi, baby!" Noah says as he waves at Annabelle.

"Aww, hi baby!" Gabriel says with a grin.

"Her name is Annabelle! Ms. Bianca brought her over yesterday and we are adopting her!" Esther says to the kids.

"Yay! Another baby sister! I'm so happy!" Evalina says as she jumps up and down.

"I wuv her!" Noah says with a smile.

"I wuv her too!" Gabriel says with a cheeky grin.

"Annabelle loves you guys too! Her birthday is Halloween. Isn't that cool?" Darien says and the kids nod

Avi, Kate, Tobias, Israel, Abigail, Ezra, Wren and Jasper walk into the house.

*Tobias, Israel, Abigail, Ezra, Wren & Jasper's outfits*

"Take your shoes off, guys." Avi says, helping Wren and Ezra take their shoes off.

"Sebastian!" Tobias says as he, Israel, Abigail and Ezra begin to pet Sebastian.

"There's Sebastian! Aww he is so sweet." Kate says as she rubs Jasper's back.

"Hey guys! Welcome!" Darien says the kids begin to hug him.

"Hi, Uncle Darien!" Tobias, Israel, Abigail, and Ezra say in unison.

"Evie, Gabe and Noah were very good last night! We had so much fun!" Kate says.

"Noah, Gabriel and Evalina said they had a fun time!" Darien says as he hugs Avi and Kate.

Kate walks over to the couch so can nurse Jasper. Kate gasps as she sees Esther holding baby Annabelle.

"We have a surprise! But Kate already figured it out!" Darien says as he chuckles.

"Aww! What an amazing surprise! She is so beautiful! I love her red hair! So precious!" Kate says with a humongous smile.

Avi smiles at Annabelle and hugs Esther.

"It was a big surprise! We were called by Evie and Hana's old case worker yesterday about this precious baby girl. She had a horrible back story, so Darien and I decided to adopt her! Her name is Annabelle Eden Koop!" Esther says as Annabelle yawns.

"Her hair is so curly." Avi says as he rubs Annabelle's head.

"We are going to give her a bath tonight. She has a lot of hair for a two month old." Esther says as Annabelle sneezes.

"Annabelle is a Halloween baby. I think that's so cool." Darien says as Hana sits in his lap.

Tobias, Israel, Ezra, Abigail and Wren hug Darien and Esther and then watch baby Annabelle.

"Be careful around the baby, guys." Avi says.

All the kids sit and hold Annabelle one by one.

"Be gentle, Wren. Gentle." Kate says as she nurses Jasper.

"Baby pwretty!" Wren says as she jumps up and down.

"Annabelle is pretty!" Kate says with grin.

"Another kid for our parents to spoil." Avi says as he chuckles.

"Time to head to Babies R Us to buy this baby girl cute girly things! Jasper is going to have a buddy his age! If you want some breast milk I have extra I can give you!" Kate says.

"Aw, Kate! You don't have to do that! That's very sweet of you to offer to do that! I've have to ask the doctor when we take Annabelle, Annabelle has a sensitive stomach. Maybe we can try a bottle of breast milk and see how she does." Esther says with a grin.

"Of course! I'm always here to help! I donated a lot of breast milk when I had Wren." Kate says.

Kate, Avi, Tobias, Israel, Abigail, Ezra, Wren and Jasper spend time with Esther, Evalina, Noah, Gabriel, Hana, Annabelle and Darien for a few hours before leaving. Annabelle is already so loved! :)
