Shawn starting carrying Jacob to the kitchen where Juliet was but then stopped when he noticed a little girl sitting at the dining room table coloring.
"Who are you?" The little girl asked.
"I'm Shawn, Juliet's husband."
"I'm Allie, Julie is my auntie."
"That makes me your uncle."
"Really?"
"Yup, so what you drawing?"
"A monster."
"That's scary." He said looking at the photo.
"I know, I'm going to rip it up so all the mean monsters know that I'm not scared of them."
"What about the nice ones?"
"There are nice monsters?"
"Yup. You never see them but sometimes when you go to sleep with your room all messy then you wake up and it's clean, the nice monsters did that."
"What else to they do?"
"Well when you learn to ride a bike and your mom lets go they will hold on just long enough till you are ready to peddle on your own. You see just like people there are some mean monsters but most of them are nice, even if they look scary."
"I never knew that, I hope I didn't make any of the nice monsters sad ripping up my pictures of them."
"How about when you are done drawing your picture we will hang it on the fridge to let all the nice monsters know how much you care about them."
"Okay." Allie said and went back to her drawing then Juliet walked out with Jacob's bottle.
"I see you met Allie." Juliet said.
"Yeah, is there anymore children hidden here?" Shawn jokingly asked.
"Nope, just the two. Do you want to feed him or should I?"
"I can." He said and she handed him the bottle.
"Wait we have to check the temperature of it first."
"Jules, I know that." Shawn said and dabbed some milk on his wrist. "It's good." He said then he put the bottle in Jacob's mouth and he started drinking it.
"Auntie Julie, can you help me hang my picture on the fridge?"Allie asked holding the picture of her monster up.
"Yeah, but I thought you wanted to rip it up?"
"I did but uncle Shawn told me there are nice monsters too, so I'm hanging it up to let them know how much I care about them."
"He's actually right, the monsters will be so happy to know you care about them." Juliet said and took Allie's hand and they went to the kitchen to put the picture up on the fridge. "It looks great, the nice monsters will love it and maybe even some of the mean ones too."
"Do you think some of the mean monsters will be nice because I drew them a picture?"
"I know they will." Juliet said and Shawn walked out to the kitchen with Jacob then set the empty bottle on the counter.
"He's a hungry little guy." Shawn said.
"Yeah he is, I can't believe he's already done drinking all of that."
"He's going to grow up strong, he's a little champion. Aren't you?" Shawn said grabbing Jacobs little hand and he wrapped his whole hand around Shawn thumb.
"So, what do you guys want to do now?" Juliet asked.
"Can we watch cartoons?" Allie asked.
"Scooby Doo is coming on any minute." Shawn suggested.
"I love Scooby Doo!" Allie said then ran out to the living room.
"How did you know that Scooby Doo is on in a few minutes?"
"No reason."
"Is that what you watch while I'm at work?"
"Ah, what is that Allie? I'll be right there." Shawn said and ran away while she laughed. Juliet walked out to the living room where Shawn was sitting on the couch with Jacob sitting upright on his lap facing the TV and Allie was sitting to the right of him. She went and sat down on his left and he turned the TV on then put his arm around her, then the show started. "Oh! I think this is the one where at the end the bad guy says "And I would have gotten away with it too if it wasn't for those meddling kids and their dumb dog."." Shawn said.
"Shawn, they say that at the end of every episode." Juliet said.
"Ah ha! I knew you watched it too!"
"Too?"
"Well that plan backfired."
"Just watch the show babe."
"Okay." Shawn said then for the next hour they all watched the show, when it was over he turned off the television and they all sat there for a minute.
"Mommy told me that you guys solve crimes, are you like Scooby?" Allie asked.
"I think I'm most like Freddy and your auntie is like Daphne and Velma put together because she is beautiful and smart at the same time, and of course Gus is like Shaggy because of the fact that he is scared of everything and Lassie is like Scooby because he likes to eat dog treats."
"Lassiter does not eat dog treats." Juliet corrected him.
"That we know of."
"So you guys save people's lives?" Allie asked.
"Yup, but your auntie does it the smart way because she's a cop."
"I want to be a cop someday."
"If you try really hard you can be." Juliet said which made Allie smile.
"I will, but right now I'm hungry."
"Me too." Shawn said.
