The Great Alaskan Honas: March 2013

Here is uncle Todd with Bronson

Wow, it has been quite a busy 3 weeks. We spent two weekends ago snowmachining up at a cabin in Talkeetna with our friends. It was pretty fun. Bronson got to get out and enjoy the snow for the first time. He wasn't too sure about it. He did like the sled rides, he fell asleep both times he went out for a ride. we were nervous about keeping him warm and so he was bundled and had warm packs in his cheeks. He was quite the trooper and did great though. The following monday he was having a very runny eye and so I took him to the doctor. Little did I know poor baby had bilateral ear infections. To add insult to injury the next wednesday we flew out to San Francisco. He actually did great. He did have his first blow out on the flight to san fran and I got to experience my first baby changing in those airline toilets. We had a smooth flight and it went very well. I can't even imagine trying to do that with turbulence.

The first night, the Minks put us up. It was great to see Kay and Todd. Aunt Charlie drove down with Karole and Kay so Bronson got to see a lot of relatives which was great. It was also nice that they were there because Kris and I were able to take advantage. We had a wine tour of Napa Valley. It was great. We were on this limo tour, and no one else showed up so it was just Kris and I. Very romantic. Thank you grandma and grandpa for watching Bronson!! Then we went back to San Fran. I spent the next, three beautiful, sunny days inside at my cardiology conference and Kris and his parents were able to explore. We then came back and I immediately got sick and that is where we are today!!
