Toddler Meets our Newborn (emotional first time)

Visit www.squarespace... - It's about time our Toddler meet our little newborn baby for the very first time and just say things got a little bit emotional at the first meeting of her baby brother.
This week was a bit of a tough one as straight after the birth of our second baby, I unfortunately had to stay in hospital for a whole week further delaying new mum Jess heading home to see her firstborn Hunter.

Hi, we are Stephen, Jess and little Hunter, a traveling family who spent 2020 self-converting a van before moving in full-time to drive around our home country of Australia. We have now completed our lap, said our goodbyes, and resumed full-time travel before we wait for our second baby to arrive.

The love that Hunter has for Koa is so sweet! 🐨

[@azukimochipan]

Jess eating the chocolate egg meant for Koa and Hunter noticing it 🤣 so funny and wholesome

[@joywilson9212]

Congratulations on your new baby boy 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@Keffin1]

So wholesome. Hunter is so well behaved around Koa. Treasure these moments forever guys.

[@lanternsea94]

So proud of Jess, she's such a trooper. Happy mother's day, Jess! You're an inspiration.

[@ldhpc]

❤ This episode brought tears to my eyes. As a nana to 3, I couldn’t have imagined a better way to have your toddler meet her new sibling. You did all the right things, greeting Hunter alone before introducing her new brother was so wise. As a mother myself, I know how hard it was to be apart that long from your toddler, so I cried too! Well done, parents of two children! Without realizing you were showing other parents how to do this best!

[@muthonimuthoni5751]

This family is insanely adorable and gentle with each other😩😍😍😍

[@kevdenn]

Wow, 66 year old guy here that never had kids. This was so emotional for me seeing Hunter and Koa together. The bond was instant...so beautiful. Yes I did have a few tears to shed as i watched. Well done Mum and Dad.

[@The101Rurple]

I love this family so much as I've been watching since you realised Hunter was on the way. I burst into tears seeing Jess's reunion with Hunter 🥰😭😭 Hunter's already an excellent big sister. Heartwarming to see. You two have raised a very mature and loveable daughter and we're all proud of all of you. :)

[@Louy9]

The pure joy between Hunter and her mommy and Hunter and her daddy both equally special yet so different and so wholesome☺️

[@sandrabutcher1961]

When Hunter got on the bed and hugged Jess I CRIED X

[@jaimeayala5598]

It’s beautiful seeing the bond they have already ❤ Hunter is really an amazing big sister and u can see how much she loves him already !

[@angelikaangel2294]

This video made me so emotional, cried through half of it. It reminded me of the time when my baby sister was born. I was 2 years older than Hunter now, so I might remember a bit more than her but still the fact that she will be able to watch all of that, that's so sweet. She looks like she's doing an amazing job. I am so happy to see you all happy and together. I truly wish the best for you, I'm so glad I bumped into your channel back in 2020 when the only way I could travel during the pandemic, was with you

[@ladymc2021]

I cried through it too! I have watched them since the very start of this channel and to see the way they have grown has been so awesome and immense.

[@catbarr924]

I cried as well! I was 10 when my sister was born. I remember getting a call from my dad when I was staying with a friend that I had a baby sister, and feeling so excited that I had a new little best friend ❤️

[@noodle9993]

Remember to be kind to yourself Jess, a very long painful labour followed by an emergency C-section can be really traumatic so look after yourself emotionally along with physically Congratulations and Much love from a daughter of general health nurse and a mental health nurse ❤❤❤

[@kikikellali5748]

So beautiful to watch Hunter bonding with her little brother who she clearly loves so much already. Steve you are a star, what a wonderful husband and father you are, the perfect role model for everyone. Jess well done for the hard work gone into bringing into this world a beautiful little gem who im sure is going to be a mini steve ❤❤❤❤

[@mylittlesuperhero581]

Not me tearing up when hunter ran into Jess's arms and hunter meeting Koa. This is beautiful. Congratulations to you all. What a beautiful family of 4.

[@cakeithley]

Playtime with Dad! Sweetest most wholesome moments together. Cherish eachother and the time you have. Absolutely, precious! Congratulations, on the birth of your new baby boy. Continued blessings to you all! 🎉

[@tessaporter5144]

Oh my gosh that was so emotional to watch 😭 Hunter’s laugh is the most beautiful sound and I was in a puddle when you had your first cuddle with Hunter, Jess 😭 broke me!! She looks like she’s loving having a little brother and very serious question… how can a newborn be that perfect!!!

[@andie74439]

My heart is just bursting with happiness for your family... Hunter is already THE best big sister Baby Koa could ask for... they're so lucky to have you guys. Much love to you and your beautiful family

[@user-zl6xh5vf2u]

[@EzzyBerry2626]

One of Hunters love languages must be food haha. She is such a caring and gentle big sis already 🥰. Congratulations guys 🎉

[@susanhirtzel8410]

[@jennifersondej5551]

CONGRATULATIONS ON BABY KOA!!! He is so adorable love his hair. 🍼🍼💙💙🍼😘🤗💙😘🤗💕😘🤗💕😘🤗💙

[@HissingKitty2008]

On top of all the postnatal hormones, dealing with cesarean is quite a feat! I love how you greeted Hunter alone! It’s beautiful how your little family just blossomed.

[@melisbaz]

The father-daughter bond is such a lovely thing to see.

[@FireCracker3240]

Baby Koa is just perfection. Those itty bitty toes... 🥰 I have a feeling he and Hunter will be the best of friends. 💗💗 Happy Mother's Day, Jess!

[@cathybechtel4376]

I had to stop the video when Jess reunited with Hunter....so many tears! Hunter is such a good big sister. So filled with love! Congratulations!!

Watching toddlers meet babies is just the most adorable thing!

[@jennyvezina4551]

Baby Koa looks just like daddy, and Hunter's love for him made me cry. I've been watching this channel before you were married, and the journey only gets better. Congratulations! I'm so happy for you!!

[@kimharris9226]

C-section is quite the thing really. I had C- section with my 2nd child. Welcome to Koa, he's so cute and all that hair, wow. He also looks very long. Congratulations 🎊 🩵 guys. Jess, just remember to be kind to urself while ur healing ❤😊

[@Jessibeanz]

I was like "I'm not going to cry" then I cried the whole time. Congratulations! what a special time.

[@kingingit]

You guys are the best 🥹♥️ Jess getting emotional got me all emotional! We already know from this how great Hunter is going to be as a big sis ❤ such a beautiful little family. We can’t wait to see you guys xxx

[@MeTalkPrettyOneDay]

I really appreciate that you guys kept pointing out that a C-section is a major surgery. As Americans, we're taught that it's no big deal and women are shamed for not instantly recovering. Reminders like this help combat that taught instinct.

[@flickaflossy6785]

Jess actually had an emergency C section and yes it is a major surgery which does have risks.

[@freelancelady]

Little Koa is very lucky to have two wonderful parents and a sister who already adores him 😊😊😊

[@denisecafferky2248]

Bawling. Hunter is sooooo sweet xx. Welcome home Jess and Koa 💙

[@kareneakers9540]

Oh my goodness! Your little girl is so cute and I just melted when she told baby Koa she loved him! I can’t believe how adorable baby Koa is and all that hair! He is so beautiful! May God bless you and your beautiful family!

[@deirdrepasko9965]

He's darling! I'm So Happy for you all! Hunter is absolutely PRECIOUS with him! She is going to look after him, the rest of her life! 🥰

[@annduffy1356]

Koa is the perfect baby boy version of Hunter! Not surprised to see how much she loves him! ☺️

[@sheylynnemiller7127]

Hunter has the best laugh. I love it.

[@LozNZ88]

This made me so emotional! My littlest love is 3 months old and my oldest love is 2.5 years. It reminded me of when I first got to see my oldest boy after giving birth and how big he seemed all of a sudden. He just grew up overnight and it was so overwhelming. I hope you've had a speedy recovery since birth. Your little family is the sweetest x

[@karinek6839]

I cried like a baby when Jess and Hunter got reunited 🥺🥺🥺🥺 so so so emotional and beautiful.

[@tamannadhaker5971]

Seeing you crying I got emotional and started crying its so pure and genuine feeling of nurturing baby I'm not even mom but Still can feel your heart

[@umebocchistudio]

Last year when I was pregnant, I binged on your videos and watched you bring baby Hunter home for the first time. I cannot believe I am watching you bring your second born home.

Hey Jess and Stephen thank you for making this very heart warming video. I don't have a boyfriend yet and I'm turning 29 this month. Seeing your happy family makes me want to make my own family too. In God's perfect time. You guys are an inspiration! I love Hunter and baby Koa. ❤

[@ponziochapters8664]

I just can't with this ♡ the pure love. The missing Hunter. Her laugh. Her and Koa. I'm a mess. I saw you guys out and about a couple weeks ago. I only knew it was you because of Hunters laugh (it echoed where I saw you) and I hid away and was fan girling 😅 I've watched you guys for years. And seeing you become parents has been so rewarding to witness. I habe 5 children and life is crazy but they all love Hunter and her laugh ♡ thank you for letting the world be a part of your journey. We are the lucky ones. I'm gonna go blow my nose now 😅❤
