The tiny Mimosa tree that we planted in the backyard appears to be doubling in size everyday. Since it has grown so much since my last update, when I caught Henry sitting next to it the other day I quickly snapped a picture and knew it would be perfect for the next Mimo update. Benny, however, got a little jealous and promptly came over to water the Mimo. It seems he doesn’t like the Mimo stealing his blogging limelight.
When I fussed at Benjamin for being such a cranky old man, he gave me a look that said, “What? You don’t think this little tree is getting so big from water and sunlight alone, do you? It’s all because of Benny’s specially formulated Miracle Grow!”

While I was away last weekend, my work quickly piled up. Lucky for me, Benny pitched in and lended a helping paw.
While he was hard at work, I love how you can see just the very top of his head peaking over the top of the computer.

The boys and Luna usually always snuggle together, but sometimes they just make me laugh. Henry was still snoozing in bed, when I was trying to make it the other morning, so I put him in the little dog bed in the living room. Before I knew it Benjamin joined Henry in the dog bed. Luna didn’t want to be left out so she squeezed herself in as well.
The expression on her face is just priceless. She seems to be saying, “Geez…having brothers is nice, but you would think they could leave a little bit more room for their lil’ sis!”
All Henry has to say is, “I was here first!”

Benny is a creature of habit. One of the things he does every morning is pull up a chair at the breakfast table. Every morning, without fail, when I am getting breakfast ready, he hops up into his chair and makes himself comfortable. What always cracks me up is how he sits on the chair. One leg always hangs through the back of the chair and as he relaxes his tail always uncurls and hangs down as well.
Once he has settled, Benjamin has a clear view of all the food on the table. He watches everything we eat and sometimes he rests his head on the glass if we are eating foods he knows he doesn’t get. But, if a banana is cracked open, Benny perks up and waits for his share.
After breakfast is finished, Benjamin inevitably succumbs to his sleepiness and sprawls out on the chair.

Lately, I have been feeling a bit stressed and overwhelmed by my work load. Luckily, Benjamin is always willing to lend a helping hand and fill in for me. Just look how well he works under pressure!
Here’s to a great weekend!

The good folks at Bow-Wow Pet saw our post about their dog bed and were nice enough to send us two more of their beds so that each of the pugs would have their very own bed.
As soon as I got the beds out of the box, Benjamin & Henry were ready to test them out. Both boys agreed and thought the new beds were very cozy.
Thanks Bow-Wow Pet!
