we did it!

Tuesday, September 13, 2011

we are back in san diego and are catching up on sleep.  anabelle went down for her 3pm nap, woke up 5:30pm for milk and then crashed . . it’s 7:30pm and she’s still asleep.  I was planning on trying to write a long post but I think I might just put together a sneak peak and try to get to bed myself.

all in all, copenhagen was success!  there were a few tiny glitches here & there but we had a great time and I am beyond thankful that chris was able to come along.  lucky me that I was able to work and have my family there at the same time.  chris & anabelle had a very special and important bonding week together.  she’s up & around ‘frankenstein’ style walking all over the place.  chris had her out and about in copenhagen and took lots of pictures so I could share in their adventures.

the event went well.  we had approx 220 attendees for the 7th annual meeting of the oligonucleotide therapeutics society.  it won’t be long before we start working on next year’s meeting – boston, october 2012!

here are a few pics & videos for now.  plenty more to come.

during the event chris would stop by to visit and so I could nurse.  it was always a fun surprise to see what anabelle was wearing that day and to have a little break with my fam.  this day they had been out working on their dancing.

(you’ll notice the heathered onesie and skirt combo was also a favorite in denmark but this time he added the polka dot pj pants)

we stayed in an apartment a few blocks from my friends/colleagues.  chris and a bundled up and walked with me.

another milk break and the best outfit of the entire trip – I heart mom pajamas with a skirt & camo hat.  awesome!  chris said he didn’t know they were pj’s.  she was also wearing her first sticker that she picked up at the carlsberg brewery with papa.

a little down time at the apartment.

chris took such good care of me & anabelle all week.  he really made an effort to be present and support me.  I know they had a fun time together and I know the week wouldn’t have been the same without them.

ok, I’m off to bed.  it’s 8:14pm and A hasn’t made a peep.
