I'm three years old today - or at least today is the day we celebrate my birthday since Mommy had to estimate based on when she adopted me and how old they thought I was when the shelter picked me up. Today has been a great day. I got to go outside for a little bit in the morning, but then I got to spend the rest of the day inside with Mommy. I'm so glad she didn't have to work today so she could spend my birthday with me!

This afternoon, Mommy and Daddy took me out in the truck. Daddy drove, Mommy sat in the middle, and I got to sit by the window with my car-harness seat-belted in. This is the first time I've got to wear this new car-harness and I like it a lot cause the seat-belt strap is still long enough that I can lay down if I want or I can sit up and look out the window.

I saw all sorts of interesting things on our drive. I saw semi-trucks and I even saw a little house on a trailer pulled over on the side of the freeway! First we went to the bank, and I got to watch the little boxes get sucked up the tubes. I thought that was really cool. Next we went to Petsmart! Mommy had to get something for Kody's secret santa that they don't carry at her store. Then she took me down the toy aisle and I got to pick out my very own toy. I got a stuffed beaver with a squeaker. Everyone was really impressed by how I carried it all by myself to the counter. My Auntie Beth was there shopping too so she said hi to me and I got to give her hugs and kisses. Then Daddy drove us to KFC for dinner and I got to eat all the chicken skin and some chicken too. YUM.

Just when I thought the day couldn't get any better, Daddy drove us to the pet store where Mommy works too! So I got to see Mommy's boss who is always so nice to me, and he gave me some treats. I got to stare at the rabbits and the parakeets, and barked hello to the boss's dogs Rodney (a Rottie!) and Molly. At the counter, I got to pick out my own 3 foot long bullystick! And Mommy also got me some cookies for a good cause. The purchase of the cookies goes to a local rescue group here, and the cookies are really yummy!

It was dark by now, so Daddy drove us home. He had to go out tonight, but now I get to laze around in the house some more with Mommy and my siblings. I've already finished my bullystick and had a bunch of cookies, and now Mommy's got something for me baking in the kitchen too. It smells really good so I'm very excited. Gonna go take a nap with my new beaver.

Thank you everywoof that wished me a happy birthday and sent me presents and/or p-mails! I'm so honored to have such wonderful friends here on Dogster to celebrate my woofday with!
