Buy the Canon 18 - 135 lens that comes in a kit with the 77D.

Use the 50mm lens. "Prime" means it only has one focal length, as distinguished from being a zoom. So, it is a prime.

Do not buy any other lenses until you get used to your new 18 - 135 and your husband's lenses.

+1 for 18-135. A single  lens that covers 95% of what you are likely to need and much better than changing lenses, and having the wrong one on when the moment occurs
