Good day! Kindly help us identify these plants in our garden. The seeds were not labeled when we planted them. Thank you!

From these pictures, it looks like this is something in the cucurbit family, but that only narrows down the choices so much.  Cucurbits are a family of plants that include cucumbers, squashes and melons.  https://extension.illinois.edu/blogs/good-growing/2020-05-07-many-different-types-cucurbits
If all of these plants are from the same pack of unlabelled seeds, our best guess is some type of squash or pumpkin plant.   Many cucurbits grow as long vines and can take up a fair amount of space unless trained up a trellis.
You may just have to wait and see what kind of fruit you get!
