The Great Alaskan Honas: 7 weeks

Bronson is now 7 weeks old. We took him to see the pediatrician on Wednesday because there was some swelling around his penis…I officially had my first “worried well” meaning that as I first time mom I am worried about nothing. The fun thing was that were able to get him weighed. He now weighs 14.1lbs. I was wondering why I thought my arm was getting tired when I was carrying him. He is starting to “mature” he does more social smiles and coos. It’s fun to watch. His eyes are also changing. They started out a dark blue and are now a slate gray. Not sure if that means that they will end up being blue/green like me or brown like Kris. We were able to get out this week and do our first official hike, we did flat-top, or at least to the first saddle. We had him in the ERGO baby, the front carrier. Lets just say my legs were so wobbly but it was fun. When we started out it was good weather then we got rained on. We are just trying to toughen up Bronson for these hardly Alaskan Winters. Our other fun plans….we are painting out house. Well, we have hired some people to paint our house but they so nicely pointed out all the things we should fix before they paint…so kris just went to lowes and got some siding, rain gutters, and shingles. Nothing like end of September to do some roofing!
