Mountain Vacation/Babymoon

Last week we had an opportunity to get up to North Georgia for a little R&R! And, boy, was it wonderful! I don't think we realized how long it had been since we connected as just a family unit. We are usually visiting people or doing life. We were so blessed to be given a week at a friends cabin and the Lord was so faithful to renew us. Thank you Hach family. It was great to spend some quality time with Mavis-I think she loved having Mommy and Daddy at her beckon call. Here are a few of my favorite pics from the week. Stay tuned for a slide show with a few more!

It's a girl!!!

In case you hadn't heard we are adding another little lady to our family! We are so excited about having another little girl and Mavis seems to really be getting excited too! She says that she is no longer "baby girl," which is what we call her most of the time- now she is to be called "big sister!" Yesterday the ladies at Starbucks offered her a free holiday bear to take home and she asked for a second one for her baby sister. So sweet. And what will baby sister's name be, you ask???

She will be named Camille!
No middle name yet, but we'll keep you posted. We've been fortunate to have 2 ultrasounds already and another one in four weeks. Not because there is something wrong, but just because they can't get a good look at everything. So, we have been able to check the sex twice and confirmed that she is, in fact, a girl:) Thanks for all your prayers and for checking in on the Sumner family. More news to come soon on a middle name!

and some more...

Family pictures!

We recently had some family pictures taken from great friend and fabulous photographer, Andy Brophy. Not only does Mavis have a huge crush on Andy, she loves to smile and laugh with him. We thought he was really able to capture our little one's personality! Check out his stuff at onenineimages.com and if you are in the Atlanta area, you should consider him for your next family pictures!! just a little shameless plug...
Enjoy!
