Hunters 1st Week

There is nothing more exciting knowing that you have just had a healthy baby boy, and both you and baby are able to return home the next day to start your life together as a family! Although the hospital must not have the same feelings because they take there sweet time releasing you! But Hunter and I were soon released and able go home with daddy to Grammie, Papa, Aunt Mandi, Uncle Jeremy, and cousin Hallie.

Hallie loves her new baby cousin! She loved to hold him, pat him and give him lots of kisses! She was so cute with him!

Hunter is a very good baby! So we decided to take him out in style to Patriots Point to tour the navy ships. He did very good for being 4 days old! He is so cute!

We had a lot of fun! The weather was good and Hunter and I kicked back and stayed where it was cool because the ships did not have AC and it was like touring a sauna!

On Sunday Hunter received his blessing. It was a beautiful blessing that his Papa gave him. We are so greatful that our family was able to come out and spend this special time with us. We really appreciate everything they have done for us!

Our Bundle of Joy is Here

Finally our beautiful baby boy is here! After 15 anxious hours of labor he arrived in the world on the 22nd of July at 8:14am. He weighed 6lbs 9oz and was 19inches long.

Minutes after he was born my sister Mandi made the comment "He's a mini-Jay!" indeed he is! He is definatly all Hoffman just like I knew he would! He is perfect! I never knew I could love something so much. He is the greatest little blessing in our lives and we are so lucky he is here and healthy! Welcome to the family son!

Our Exciting Month

We have such a busy month of July! We are so glad its finally here. First its Justin's birthday on the 19th! Though we wish his family was closer to be able to spend it with him I figured Id post a picture of him closer to home! Happy Birthday Babe! I love you very much. You are a wonderful husband! I hope I can make your day extra special.


We are also looking forward to having our family from Utah and Arizona fly out! They are coming out to help welcome our little bundle of joy into the world! He is expected to be here any day now! I cannot express how excited we are!

I cannot believe its been a year already! Justin and I will be celebrating our first year anniversary on the 21st! What a wonderful year its been. I couldnt ask for a better one. I feel very blessed to have him as my husband. Being married is awesome! We share such an awesome friendship, and have more love for eachother, that grows each and everyday. This past year has been full of wonderful blessings and surprises and I cant wait for the life time ahead. Happy Anniversary Sweetie!

Home Sweet Home

Finally home sweet home! There truly is no place like home! Well, as we were just settling in, of course, they send my hard workin husband on another trip. At least it was just an over-nighter. He was sent to do "personel drops" high altittude low opening (AKA HALO). It looks like a lot of fun. Little dangerous and nerve-racking knowing my husband is standing at the edge of this gigantic plane without a parachute getting a thrill from watching these men do back flips from his plane!
