Hi All,
Friday was unofficially Benders FIRST birthday! I say unofficial because he was born Feb 29, 2012 and there was no 29th day on the calendar for February this year.
DH and I love him SO much and can't believe he's already a ONE YEAR OLD! He has grown so much in one year.
I can't even begin to express how much we love our Bender. He is my PLUSHY PIE, SWEET PIE, BABY BENNY, CUTIE PATOOTIE, FLUFFY BABY!!! Lover of plush dolls, ultimate cuddle bear, and 7AM alarm clock! I have to admit it was really hard when we first brought him home and we still have a lot of things to work on but I think he is the sweetest little big guy in the world!!!!
Friday we celebrated with extra treats and a lot of love! I went to two stores looking for a birthday hat but both Rite-Aid AND CVS did not have them! I was shocked but decided to spend that extra couple of dollars on more treats for him. DH said Bender was "food drunk" on Friday night LOL. (I didn't over feed...just gave small bits of a variety of treats he loved PLUS new cod twists!) He was a little weary of the COD twists but as soon as he heard Zoe chomping away he followed.
Saturday we took the day to take them out to the beach. Considering it was around the 80's in LA we figured EVERYONE would be out to the beaches in LA and OC. SO...we drove about 1 hr north to the beaches of Channel Islands in Oxnard,CA. It was so lovely! Very empty and so much space for the pups to run around!!! The water was a little cold so Zoe didn't throw herself in the water as usual but the weather was nice and the scenery was BEAUTIFUL!
Ben did great! Although he was a little freaked out when the off leash (reallyyyyy hyper) Puggle ran up to him and kept trying to bounce at him to play he was over all a good boy! I tried to get the Puggle away to play with Zoe but he wouldn't leave Ben alone (Ben just yelped tho). There was about 3 different kids that ran up to him and wanted to pet him and he had absolutely NO issues with them! It was a happy day! We drove home the scenic way through Malibu and DH and I had a blast! Ben threw up only once =X.
BTW Bender got his MAN POOF! We had to stop by PetSmart to get him a LARGE Gentle Leader because he grew out of his!!! My baby is turning into a big boy! *sniffsniff*

Wow, the beach, that is my kind of birthday! That first year does go by quickly (even though some days you wish it would go a little faster ... like during the nipping stage). Looks like everyone had a wonderful time.
Happy belated Birthday Bender.
Awww Happiest birthday, Bender! It looks like your family gave you a super fun time.
Happy Birthday Bender!!!!
Happy Birthday Bender....you sure are a cutie!
