NTI - Chicago

So I got the opportunity to speak at the annual critical care nurses convention in Chicago this week to over 500 nurses. It was a great experience and definitely learned a lot of in terms of presenting working with companies. I got home last night and it was so good to be back with Travis and Perri. Was just tired and wish my little Miss Perri was sleeping better through the night, I don't know what is going on with her. It is frustrating and wish we knew what we could do. Travis is ready for me to call the doctor for suggestions. I thought at first she was sleep walking or like night terrors, but last night I just don't know anymore. Anybody with suggestions feel free to send any help you can our way. This weekend we are hoping for good weather cause we have Travis's mom and dad coming into town and will also be celebrating my Mom's bday and mother's day. Will post more pictures of Perri after this weekend. She is getting bigger and mouthier every day :)
The rest of this post talks about the conference and is my kudos to myself

  1. I have absolutely no advice on the non-sleeping child thing, but WHAT AN ACHIEVEMENT to be a presenter at your conference! Congratulations! :)
