Baby Jovie's Nursery

I decided that since this is post #100 on the Mylittlesunshineblog, I would blog about something fun and exciting! Baby Jovie's nursery couldn't be more fun and exciting, right? I guess I'm also revealing the name of our baby girl too! We've had the name Jovie May Kemp on our minds the whole pregnancy and even started to call her that a couple of months ago but weren't "set" on anything until one day when I had an overwhelming feeling that Jovie just needed to be her name. Hendrix calls her baby "Jobie" and it's pretty much the cutest thing in the entire world. He is SO excited to meet her and talks about her everyday. The other day he was rocking in the rocking chair with Jordan and said, "Daddy... I love baby Jobie." If that doesn't melt your heart, I don't know what does.

I've slowly been painting, decorating and organizing her room but can finally say that it's ALMOST put together. I've been getting really tired again so I'm glad I won't have a lot of projects in the next 2 months.

When we found out we were having a girl, I knew instantly that her room had to be purple. I've always wanted a purple nursery because I love the color and I feel like EVERY little girl's room is pink (which is fine, I just love purple more.) I wanted the color to be girly and peaceful at the same time. I LOVE how everything turned out and sometimes just sit in her room because it's so calming. I still have a few things to hang but here are some pictures of the almost finished room.

 That purple blanket was given to me by Meagan and Judy. It's the softest blanket in the whole wide world AND it's purple.  =)

 This was the dress that I was blessed in when I was a baby. I wanted my little girl had to be blessed in it as well. I'm so glad my Mom saved our blessing dresses and took such good care of them. It's the cutest little thing EVER and even comes with matching booties and bonnet.

 This is a horrible picture, the lighting wasn't very good but you get the idea of how adorable the ruffle curtains are. I searched HIGH and LOW for these and returned quite a few sets of curtains before I settled on these.

 I made this bow holder and think it turned out so cute. I'm kind of obsessed with hair accessories for myself so having a little girl is only going to make things worse.  Thanks pinterest for the idea.

I had to throw in a picture of my new diaper bag. I'm IN LOVE with it! Jordan thinks it looks like a bowling bag and can't understand why it cost so much... it's just a diaper bag, right? No honey, it's not JUST a diaper bag and you will never understand so just nod your head and say you love it.

Hawaii (Day 8)

I didn't end up taking any pictures on day 7 of our Hawaii trip. It pretty much rained the whole day so we stayed inside most of the time but did get to swim a little around 4:00 when the sun decided to come out. So I made up for it and took a bunch of pictures on day 9, our last day. We played at the beach, went swimming, shopping, out to dinner and got a little yogurt after. What a fun trip!

As far as the plane rides went..... our way to Hawaii was a lot better then I thought it would be. Hendrix played for the 2 hour flight to Phoenix, then we ate some lunch at the airport during our 2 1/2 hour layover. He REALLY needed a nap at this point and slept for the first 2 1/2 hours on the way to Maui. We lucked out and had our flight time cut by one whole hour because there were no head winds that day. We kept busy with playdough, coloring and cars. He did great the entire trip, sleeping and napping like normal. On the way home from Maui, our flight left at 11:30 pm (2:30 am Utah time) with the duration being 5 1/2 hours to Phoenix. We kept Hendrix awake so he would sleep well on the plane and he did. He slept the entire flight but was extremely restless, keeping us awake. We were lucky enough to sit RIGHT BEHIND a baby who cried the E N T I R E flight to Phoenix. SERIOUSLY???? Give your kid a freakin binki!!! Everyoen on the plane was so annoyed, it was awful. Jordan and I kept looking at each other like we wanted to die. Anyway... we made it home a little bit exhausted but all 2 of us had a nap and slept really well last night. I went to the doctor today for my appointment and checked out good with me and the baby. What a fun "last" trip with just the 3 of us.

 Oh my heavens, I love him!

 Hendrix was really sick of me taking pictures. This is his mad face.

 27 weeks pregnant! How lucky that I get to be on the beach.

 His "tools" that he played with the whole trip.

 POOL TIME!

 Last sunset.

Hawaii (Day 6) SNOW CONES!

Today was a good day! The sun was out and the winds had died down. It was the most beautiful day we've had since arriving here. We played on the beach and hit the pool all before 11:00 AM. After eating some lunch we went into Lahaina again and got the most delicious snow cones in the entire world. Seriously, these snow cones taste like icecream! YUM! Unfortunately these were the only pictures I took today.

Judy and Judd were so sweet to watch Hendrix for us tonight so that we could go on a little date. We ate at Leilani's On The Becah and enjoyed the most delicous fish tacos and sweet potatoe fries. Jordan is STILL talking about the food 4 hours later. We did a little shopping, got some icecream and watched a hula show after dinner. Whaler's Village is so much fun!

I asked Hendrix to show me his red lips and these were the faces I got. LOL! He's so funny!

Hawaii (Day 6)

Today was Sunday, so we went to church (sacrament meeting) and played on the beach for a little bit. It's still really windy and overcast so we don't last too long outside before we're dripping wet and freezing. Hendrix learned how to do THIS today:

Sadly, these are the only pictures I took today. Hendrix STILL loves the beach and the ocean, we go everyday and he can't get enough. The boogie board only fuels that fire now.

Hawaii (Day 5)

Today looked like this........

(Rain plus 60 MPH winds)

So we went here:

With these cute people.

This aquarium was AWESOME and Hendrix loved it. They had the most beautiful fish, coral reefs, turtles, sharks, sting rays and even an underwater tunnel. We had a really good time.

Later that night we went to Bubba Gump's for some shrimp and sea food. I had been waiting to go there our entire trip. SOOOO yummy! While we were there, I met Annie's future husband and HAD to take a picture of him, lol. Yep, I asked him if I could take his picture because I had a little sister that would LOVE everything about him, especially his dreads. Really embarrassing but I think he secretly liked it.

Don't be jealous that this was the sunset tonight. BEST ONE YET!

He gets really sick of smiling for my camera so his smiles look like this by the end of the day.

We ended the night with ice cream and a little shopping in Lahaina. Lot's of fun today and we didn't even go to the beach! Hopefully the winds will die down tomorrow.
