Indy turns three!  Yesterday marked the anniversary of our adoption of Indy.  At the time we adopted him, we were told he was approximately 2 years old.  Not knowing his real birthdate, we decided to use his adoption date and count from there forward.

| Birthday? Me? | 
Thus, Indy is now 3, in calendar years, or 21 in human equivalents.  So, no longer is he a teenager!  Yay!  Though I think his personality will be that of a puppy for his entire life.  He just enjoys life far too much to ever "grow up".
| Really? I'm going out without the other two? | 
In honor of his birthday, and to avoid having the Monkeys try making him a dog-safe cake, we opted to head out to Sonic where we could bring Indy along for a treat.
| What is this place, Mom? | 
Somebody couldn't believe his good luck!  Soft serve ice cream in a cone.  I wasn't sure he'd know what to do with it at first.  Then I guessed someone else might lose fingers as the Landshark Jaws snapped shut around the rapidly melting treat.  I was wrong!
| For me? Mine! | 
 Indy delicately nipped at and licked the ice cream.
| Nom, nom, nom... | 
 Lick lick lick lick lick!
| A long tongue is handy! | 
 Now how to get the ice cream out of the deep narrow part?  Good thing I have a long tongue, says Indy!
| Nom, nom! Crunch! Crunch! | 
 All gone!  Can I have another?  Yes, after demolishing his own cone, he began nosing around everyone else's for a second one.  Typical Indy!
 
LOVE this!!! I'll want to consider a birthday celebration for Baby Mia - at the moment she thinks everything is a celebration . . giggle . . AND - THANK YOU for finding my error on the memorial post - fixed it right away . . . (you rock!)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Indie - you couldn't have asked for a more fun and loving family. I'm taking Abby for her first ice cream cone tomorrow. Being a rescue and a bit skittish when I first got her (with the resultant touchy stomach) she is expanding her horizons both with other dogs and food.
