Six months have passed since Syven's birth. However, Savani is now a very active 2-year-old. For the benefit of both their children, Spencer and Liv have been making an effort to stick to a consistent schedule. However, the parents flew out to see their grand-babies.


Spencer and Olivia House

Laura: Honey you've been doing an amazing job with the kids, and your father would be so proud of you.

Grace: I know it can be hard mothering a toddler and a newborn baby but you are doing great Olivia.

Liv: (holding syven) Aww thank you guys, this means a lot to me.


Shouting out loud saying "Lolo and Gg," Savani grabs both of their hands as she tries to pull them to her room.


Liv: (laughs) she must want you guys to go play with her.


As they allow Savani to guide them back to her room, Laura and Grace smile and laugh.


Savani: Look Gg and Lolo.

Grace: These are beautiful dresses for the prettiest baby girl ever.

Laura: Omg honey, let's try them on.


When Savani tries on the first dress, it resembles a rapunzel dress with a fluffy bottom and little flowers added to it.


Grace: Sooo cuteeee omg.

Laura: Oh wow look at youuu!


She tries on the next one, which is a princess tiana dress with matching green gloves to go with it.


Laura: You are so beautiful baby.

Grace: I love it so very much, my precious grand baby (squeezing her chubby cheeks)


With a smile and laughter, Savani spins around.


Meanwhile...


As Liv sits on the big fluffy couch with Syven, she lays him on her knees.


Liv: Hii my handsome boy.


Syven gives his first smile to his mommy.


Liv: (starts crying) Omg that's your first smile baby.


Syven then laughs and smiles.


Liv: You're really a special one baby boy.


Syven just mesmerized his mommy.


Liv: I'm so happy to be your mommy SJ.


She covers him in kisses. He smiles and chuckles, and so does Liv. Spencer then arrives after leaving from practice. He walks in and finds his son and wife lounging on the couch. He set his belongings down and went to go wash his hands. He then goes over to the couch with where they were, giving Liv a minute long kiss and a firm embrace.


Liv: Hii babe.

Spencer: Wassup baby.

Liv: How was practice?

Spencer: It was good, how was things here?

Liv: Good, ever since our moms have been here Savani has stolen them away (laughs) and me and baby boy have been here laughing and smiling together.

Spencer: He is smiling and laughing?

Liv: Yes, his first ones were today with me.

Spencer: Let me take over with my twin.

Liv: Babe hate to break it to you, he looks like me.

Spencer: Whatever...wassup little man.


Syven then smiles at his dada.


Spencer: Can you say dada.


Syven lips quivers to make the words.


Spencer: Say dada baby boy.

Syven: Da...

Spencer: That's right baby boy dada.

Syven: Da...da

Spencer: That's my little man.

Liv: (looks and smiles at Syven) Say mama.

Syven: Da...da.... daa....daa


Savani then runs into the room. She approaches her parents after spotting her mommy and daddy  with her baby brother.


Savani: Dada home.

Spencer: Yes I am, (kisses her head), How's my princess?

Savani: (smiles) I good dada.

Spencer: What you been doing?

Savani: My dress

Spencer: Huh?!

Liv: She played dress up. (laughs)

Savani: Mhmm ( shakes head) Lolo and Gg

Liv: With your mom and mine.

Spencer: I had that part (laughs)


Savani sees her parents and starts laughing. Grace and Laura observe Savani as she laughs and shows admiration for her. After that, everyone simply unwinds and relishes their time spent as a family.

The Next Morning

It was the grandparents' time to return home. They chose to notify Liv and Spencer by text that they had left out after leaving bright and early. Savani and Syven had both fallen asleep in their bed last night, so they were all cuddled up in the bed together with their children. While the children were still asleep, Liv began to wake up and looked at Spencer.


Liv: What...are you seriously reading plays right now?

Spencer: (laughs) It's been playing off in practice so yes I am.

Liv: You're crazy, but you already got this down pack babe.

Spencer: (kisses on the lips) Thanks baby.

Liv: Did our parents already leave?

Spencer: Yeah they had texted saying they left out earlier.

Liv: Ohh okay, (looking down at the kids) last night really drained them.

Spencer: Nah frl, this is the first time both of them are in our bed.

Liv: I actually like it.

Spencer: Me too, but I'm just happy we finally got them on a good schedule.

Liv: Omg yess.


Savani moves around starting to wake up.


Liv: Good morning baby.

Spencer: (rubbing her head) Good morning baby girl.


Savani gives them a smile and snuggles in between beside her brother.
