Trip to Orlando = Daddy had Ansley duty!

I left on Thursday for Orlando to see Kelly, Brent and Madison, and my mom met me in Orlando. It was nice to have a weekend away and a chance to see them all without running around after Ansley. Madison just cracks me up! She is talking non-stop and saying the funniest things. I just look at her and laugh, she has so many facial expressions :) I think I came back more exhausted then if I was here running around after Ansley. Madison doesn't like to be picked up because she just wants to run, run, run! Now, I know why Kelly looks so good being almost 7 months pregnant.

We had a busy, but fun weekend. We went to the beach, shopped, and went to a charity golf tournament in honor of my sorority sister's little girl, Faybree Neufeld, who has a rare form of lung disease. What an amazing thing to attend, it just gave me the chills to see all the people who came out to support thier family. There was 180 golfers, WOW! And everyone had on "Team Faybree" shirts. I got Madison a pink tank top with "Team Faybree" embroidered on it. It looked so cute on her. The tournament was a huge success!
I got home late Sunday night and was very excited to see Ansley and Rob. Thanks Kel, Brent and Maddie for the hospitality, I had a great time and can't wait to come back down when Hailey arrives :)
While I was in Orlando, Rob had Ansley duty. They had lots of fun, went on some runs (I found a great jogging stroller at a consignment store for $75), went to the park and over to one of our friend's house to hang out....
So I have to tell a funny story, Rob called on Friday night and I was asking about the day, and he said they ran some errands and were listening to Friday afternoon music (you know how radio stations always have fun music on Friday afternoon, really upbeat!), well Rob at one point looked back at Ansley and she was sitting in her car seat with her fingers plugged into her ears because she didn't like the music, HA! I would have died to see that! I wish I had a picture but hopefully you can imagine. I told Rob, not everyone likes the music he listens to, and it looks like Ansley definitely doesn't :)
Here are some pics from my trip to Orlando and a couple Rob took of Ansley playing at the park. Hope you all had a great weekend!

Jen so glad that you and Mom were able to come down and visit us. Maddie had a blast was very confused this morning when she woke up and you two weren't here. Rob, thanks for watching Ansley so Jen could come down solo. Sorry Ansley doesn't like your music. I would have paid money to see her plugging her ears. Ha! :)

Can't wait to see you guys in June.
