Gone Fishing

Today, when Benjamin was relaxing by the pool he uncurled his tail right over the pool’s edge.  If his tail was just a little bit longer he might have been able to get a good catch

Birthday Fun

Yesterday was a fun day.  We went to the doggie beach and the boys did a great job swimming even though the water was a little rough.  After we got home from the beach, I made them a special turkey burger on the grill in honor of Benny’s birthday.  They loved it!  Since they liked it so much I think I will make them more turkey burgers next Sunday for Henry’s birthday.

Happy Birthday, Benjamin!

Today, Benny celebrates his 3rd birthday.  I can’t believe it has been 3 years already!  To help celebrate I thought I would post some pictures of Benjamin over the years in his own Birthday gallery.  You can see the pictures of Benny here.

Spring Cleaning

Benjamin took it upon himself today to do a little spring cleaning on his toy box.  He started on the top shelf pulling down most of the larger plush toys, but then decided that he needed a more paws-on approach and jumped into the upper basket.  He diligently worked for a few more minutes sending toys flying out of the basket before he realized that this was a much bigger job than he originally thought and that his time would be much better spent napping!

If you can’t beat it, join it

It has been very chilly here lately and we are in the midst of a snow storm. The heavy snow is yet to come, so we decided to head out and play while there was just a dusting on the ground.

The boys both had their coats on and were running around like mad stopping to gobble up snow along the way. They kept trying to shake off the cold and any snow that may have gotten on their coats. Luckily, I was able to snap a picture of Benjamin as he was giving himself a good shake!

If the boys are up to it, we may try to venture out later after there has been some accumulation. If we do, I will be sure to post some more pics.

One of my favorite pictures

I was organizing my digital photos in a new software program last night and I came across this photo.

This is one my favorite photos of the boys.  It was taken at the lake when they were just 7 months old.

Benjamin & Henry’s New Year’s Resolutions

The year is quickly drawing to a close and it is time to start thinking about our 2005 New Year’s resolutions. Benjamin & Henry are already busy working on their lists. First up is Benjamin’s list:

• I will stop eating cat litter from my sister’s litter box. I will also not chase my sister, Cupid the cat, so that she does not have to get fussy and hiss at me to make me stop.
• I will learn to sleep through the night and I will not wake mommy up at 3:30 AM so that she can feed me breakfast.
• I will not continuously jump in the air when mommy is fixing my dinner. I will be a good boy and patiently wait for her to get everything ready.

And now for Henry’s list:

• In the morning, I will go potty right away for mommy. I will not make her bribe me before I decide to do my business.
• I will watch my waistline so that I can continue to be a healthy boy and not have any problems with my hips.
• I will not bark at my reflection in the window at night. Mommy has explained to me that it is just me. This year I will believe her.
• On sunny days, I will not lay down in the middle of my walk to sun myself.

Now let’s see how many of these resolutions the boys are able to keep Here’s to a great 2005!
