14 weeks, tiny little heartbeat.

So Rory and I went in on wednesday and finally had the chance to hear the babies heart beat. It was 162 and so beautiful. I finally feel like there is a baby inside of me. All of my worries seemed to fade away with every beat I heard. Rory and I have started looking at baby cribs and seats. It is so exciting to think that here in 6 months, we will have a family of three. In four weeks, we find out what we are having. With out confirmation, I know its a boy. I guess you could say my motherly instinct has kicked in lol. Thanksgiving was yesterday and it was a wonderful day! Rory and I started the day out at his families house and enjoyed a Thanksgiving lunch which was very good! Than went back to my families house and ate like the end of the world was here. I still feel full! It was a very yummy dinner! I just thought of so many things I am thankful for. I am incredibly thankful for my husband Rory, who continues to stand by and support me through everything I do. I love him and care for him so much, and it is an amazing feeling to feel his amount of love for me as well. I am so excited to start my family with him and spend eternity and after with him. I am very thankful for my family and parents. My parents do anything they can to help us out and make sure life is easy for all of us. I love them so much and have no idea what I would be with out them. I am thankful for my heavenly father and Jesus Christ and for all that he has sacrificed for us. I am thankful for these beautiful days I get to spend with my husband and family. I am thankful for my brave brother Austin and his couragiousness. I am thankful for my country and all that is has to offer. There is so many more. Life is such a precious gift that we should cherish and take each day for what it is worth. I am off now to hang out with Rory. I love you all!

9 weeks and 1 day, who knew!

So everything seems like it is going by so fast! Even with this gut wrenching sickness every morning, and moodyness up the butt, these weeks flew by! Did I tell you? Stephanie is expecting too! I am so happy! It is so exciting to be expecting so much love and happiness! Rory has been so supportive. Every morning when I run to the bathroom, he follows me with a pony tail. He stands by me and puts my hair up, what a brave man! Haha! He gives in to my cravings and spoils me. I just love him so! Because I am pregnant, it is going to be difficult to go on our honey moon to Australia, but we are thinking about going after the baby gets here. I am excited! Also! I have one more quarter and I am done with high school! I can move on with life! Haha! In Feb. Rory and I are planning on moving into an apartment with Tiffany and John. It is good to have friends that have so much in common with you! Tiffany and I get a long great! As well as John and Rory, we all do actually. It helps that they know how it is to be married and have a baby as well. They are much more mature than a couple of our other friends, and it is just easy to be around them and their very cute daughter! I am excited and I hope this will all work out! So when I was younger, during Halloween season, my dad would always take me to the haunted houses. It was always so much fun! Now, this Thursday, dad, Rory, me, and my nephews, Jace, Jaxon, and Tyson are going to a haunted house! I am excited! Well I better get going to and finishing up with my work! Love you all!

Being pregnant, and this new thing inside of me.

So, since finding out I was pregnant, I would tell Rory everyday, I am so surprised I have NO symptoms! I thought, "Hm, maybe this will be one of those perfect pregnancies!" Oh boy was I wrong! My so called morning sickness has hit, and it hit HARD! And who ever thought to call it morning sickness was probably a guy thinking this sickness was all in our head so once noon struck it would all go away, think twice buddy! Man, I feel like I can not go an hour with out eating, or guess what? That pukey feeling, where your mouth waters up, and you do that ugly run to the toilet, appears. So, my hero, Rory, bought me some Preggy Pop Drops, oh boy, LIFE SAVERS! Oh and have you ever heard of a girls boobs falling off? Because I swear mine are trying to! They hurt! And my sense of smell, I feel makes me related to blood hounds. Other than the down sides of pregnancy, this whole thing has brought Rory and I so much joy. We are so excited to meet our little peanut. Today, I am 7 weeks pregnant. Strange to say eh? It is such an amazing feeling to know that Rory and I have created a life. We are so excited for all the this life is going to offer us. I know Rory and I will make wonderful parents, and still have our strong relationship. I love Rory so much, and I love him even more for all of the support he is giving me right now. I know our life with be spent with eachother forever and ever and after. Love you all!

Big News!

Well Rory and I have some big news. Not only did we just celebrate our one month wedding anniversary, we also found out we are expecting number one. We are about four weeks along, which makes this special bundle, a honey moon baby! Although we were quite shocked, we are also very excited! We are ready to welcome a new Hoffman into our world and lives. Our families are extatic! We never expected this to happen so quickly, but it did, and we are ready for it. God has not blessed us once but twice! We were blessed to find eachother and fall in love more and more each day, but we were also blessed with a product of our love. This is a huge step into the real world, but we are ready for this. As we are excited, a lot of nervousness comes a long as well. Mostly about the baby and Shelby's health. We know though, that everything will be okay. Its funny, Shelby has NO symptoms, and the only way she and I really knew is that we just knew in our hearts. The feeling was there and it was strong and undenied! After her being a week late, I woke her up on saturday, September 26, at 7 in the morning. Even though she knew she was from the start, she told me " its going to be negative, don't get to excited!" I knew though, and so did she, so when she ran in and sat on the bed with tears and a smile, it was just confirmed! It turned positive before she could even get off the toilet! We are so excited! I knew, not only because of my feeling, but because she cried over a song! Than, I teased her saying your being a waa waa, and she was hysterical! Haha oh these emotions should be fun! Lots of changes are coming, but we are prepared for what life has in store for us. When we told Shelbys mom, Shelby was much to afraid, so I did it. In the middle of the Expo center with Shelbys mom's best friend there. I said Guess what! Shelbys pregnant! Her friend was excited, Shelbys mom, she was unprepared! But now she is excited. For Shelbys dad and my family, Shelby wrote a poem, and I had the idea of putting the poem on a picture of a bun in the oven, I will post the picture. My family is VERY excited! This will be the first Hoffman baby. Shelbys dad was shocked, but excited. We know this will bring a couple of ups and downs, but it will also bring us even more closer and we will just keep falling more and more in love! We love you guys!

Mr. and Mrs. Hoffman

We're married! Finally and perfectly, we are married. It was the most perfect yet stressful day that turned out to be so wonderful and the best day of my life, but I really can not say the best day of my life with a full heart because every day with eachother is the best day of my life. This is the most perfect feeling. We are speechless about how happy we are. The day was beautiful. Everything was perfect. I was completely stressing out because every day for this whole month it said thunder and rain storms the day of our wedding. Our wedding was outside with no tents so it would not be good if it rained on us and our 100 guests. I stressed, cried, crossed my fingers, wished on every 11:11, and every shooting star and prayed. I guess it worked, because even though even on the day of the wedding it said high chance of rain, the weather could not have been better. Although it rained just 30 minutes before the wedding, it is good luck. Ha. During the wedding though, it was incredible. God really did answer our prayers. Rory kept telling me "please don't worry hun! It will so perfect" He was totally right, but it was far more than perfect. I am so glad to call him my husband. We waited so long for this, and it is so much better than I ever predicted it to be. We are so in love, and it just keeps growing stronger and stronger. Our life together is perfect. Although, every once in a while, we can argue and fight, it makes us stronger. At the end of the day, we are holding each other tight and loving and laughing. I know our eternity and after will be spent with eachother, and falling morea and more in love with eachother. Together forever and ever and after and always in love with eachother forever and ever and after and always happy with eachother forever and ever and after. We love eachother and our new families!

P.S. I had both of my dads walk me down the aisle, it was adorable and really touching.

My new nephew is here! Luke Allen

He is finally here! Baby Luke has finally arrived! He is a beautiful baby, and I am so proud of Austin and Karlee and love them all so much! Wedding is in 22 days! :D! Now lets hope everything gets situated soon, because if not, I will rip my beautiful hair out. Bye everyone.

27 days, and I will be married. Thats right, married. We planned on next August, and here we are, a whole year early, and getting married! My life is falling into where I always wanted it to be. Finally, its here. The feelings are over whelming, in a good way of coarse. So many new things will be coming out of this, and so many great things as well. He is so perfect for me, and I know our eternity will be spent with eachother. Many people will doubt us, many, many people, and the odds and statistics are against us, but we are the exception. These last three years have been incredible. Rory has made me a new person, and has made my life what I always pictured it would be, even better. Everything falls into place with him. Even during stressful times for me when I decide to be mean to Rory, he holds me, and I feel at peace, and all my worries sort of fly away. I just wish I could share the feeling. So August 25 is the big day, and I could not be happier. We just moved into our new home in Bluffdale, which is beautiful and huge! The wedding and reception will be placed in our new beautiful back yard. I am very excited about that. I am a very naturey girl, if thats even a word! I am glad it will be out doors to share the moment with everything I love to involve my self with. Plus, it will be awesome to always hold that memory everytime I step outside. Rory and I will be renting a room in the basement, or apartment I should say. I am so excited for what this new life has to offer for us! I know it will be unimaginably perfect. I love him so much.

Anyways, Karlee is now 5 days past due. The little guy still has not arrived, and I feel bad for her! Can you imagine? Well I cant! I am so excited for her and Austin! They are so happy together, and it will be great to see a new addition to the love and happiness. Those two are so cute together, and the new Guynn will just be adorable. I just wish we knew his name! Come on little guy, its time to come home! I love those three, and I am over joyed for them, and wish them the best!

SO I know how boring my blogs are, but they keep me occupied in the late hours of night that I can not sleep! So Enjoy! We love you guys and I can not wait for this new coming!
