this month is our mimi's "joining the family" birthday!
she got dropped off to us last year in march as a lost puppy...and after a few failed attempts to find her a home we bought her a bed and a collar and called her our own!
max and i celebrate her today over puppy treats and cupcakes and might have depressed her a little bit by making her wear a party hat.
what a year it's been...
mimi has been such a good and funny addition to our family!
and my oh my does she love our boys as much as i do...
she is the most eager gal for attention and love and can be the life of the party! she has an affinity to eating my shoes and the dust piles i sweep up in the kitchen. she enjoys hiding under max's bed, hopping the fence and going for afternoon strolls, and plotting to take down our hamster, spongey.
but above all of it...she is loved and loved.
happy 1st birthday, sweet girl!
Oh my, she is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteVery sweet.
ReplyDeleteWe've been thinking about getting our son a dog recently, it's good for kids I think!
Oh, LOVE the party hat on mimi! Such a sweet photo of her! Her expression is priceless!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness - too cute and the expression is hilarious! :-)
ReplyDeleteI love this so much - what a sweet puppy :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Mimi! Don't you just love a dog in a party hat?

aaww! Happy joining the family birthday, sweet pup!
ReplyDeleteShe looks so gorgeous and vulnerable with that hat on! xx
ReplyDeleteLuckiest pup ever! Oh those pictures of her in that party hat are toooo funny. What a good sport.
ReplyDeletedogs always have that same "what are you doing to me?!" look on their faces when you dress them up! i love that you celebrated her coming into your home...she's a very lucky pup.
ReplyDeleteAww! Happy Day! I thought our weird beard beagle Bodhi was the only dog in the universe licking up the dust piles...I told my husband and he told Bodhi and basically...he's crushin'.
ReplyDeleteAww, what a gal! The birthday hat is too much. And Max has grown ten feet!
ReplyDeleteLove to you sweet friend.
precious! what a happy family!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, that face! What an adorable dog. Happy birthday, Mimi!
ReplyDeletehappy day sweet girl. I think you are very becoming in that hat!

We adopted our cat in a similar way. In the beginning, we had no intentions of keeping her... she just came into our life and decided to adopt us is more like it.
ReplyDeleteThose mimi-in-a-party-hat pictures are priceless!
Ah, it is the week for puppies in hats! Luna donned one for my birthday on Saturday. Mimi looks SO CUTE!

aww! i loved this post! we just celebrated our dog's anniversary of joining our family (his unofficial birthday)! we even had a cupcake that looks like mimi's! i love mimi's brindle coat and i think our dog townes would totally have a crush! ♥
ReplyDeletehaha her little face, she's all "WHAT IS GOING ON? AND CAN I HAVE THAT TREAT?"
ReplyDeleteOh she's so beautiful, with a gorgeous coat! I love that calico pattern on dogs. She could pass herself off as my dog's twin, if it wasn't for the coat. They have the same sweet face. Happy birthday Mimi!
