TEN YEARS AGO TODAY!

Blue was born!
Here he is the day I brought him home.
8 weeks old and 20 lbs.

Here is the same night and then a comparison shot from not too long ago!
Lol!
And now!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BLUE
XOXO

How adorable he is. Some people grow prettier with age, Blue is certainly one of them!

Oh! HAPPY BIRTHDAY gorgeous, big Blue!!!
A HUGE cuddle and hug from me to you XOXO

It's amazing, when we look back on photos of our furbabes. Pups one day, senior citizens the next. That time goes by SO fast!
But, puppies forever in our minds.
My Jackie boy recently turned 14, and every day now is more precious than the last with him by my side. I find myself babying him and "wrapping him in cotton wool", and ever mindful of his needs.

Wishing your beautiful Blue many more wonderful years to come.
He really is a handsome, kind old soul, and unique in every way ♥

Vicki,
Your Jack is so lucky to have you as his Momma.
You make him feel safe and loved.
It breaks my heart when I here about dogs being abandoned in their twilight years. How could a person do that?
I, like you, treasure every moment I have with my big guy.
This year when I told people his age, they'd raise their eyebrows in surprise.
I know they mean no ill will towards Blue or me. I realize that while he doesn't show it, he is indeed a senior.
I hate it.
But I won't dwell on it but will be happy for every moment and be thankful that he's aging so well.
Thank you for the birthday wishes!
XOXOXOXOXO

What a difference 10 years can make, although I've a feeling that if you looked closely you could actually see him grow!

Happy, Happy Birthday to your most special and handsome boy!!

Doreen@foxdenrd said...

What a beautiful, sweet boy he is, but I don't have to tell YOU that! He's also a lucky boy to have you as his mommy :).

Happy Birthday (belated) Blue!

Cindi Myers said...

Kim,
LOL!
Actually he grew so slowly on me that I didn't realize that he hit 174 lbs a few years ago!
He's down to 145 now but I know what you meant.
;)
Thank you for the birthday wishes!

Cindi Myers said...

Doreen,
Yes he is a sweetie! LOL!
And thank you, I try to be a good mom.
:D
and Thanks for the birthday wishes!
XOXO

Gillian said...

Phew, he’s better. I just saw all the recent posts this morning and was going Wha? Nooooo!

So pleased he’s mended. And what a handsome birthday boy he is!

Cindi Myers said...

Thanks Gillian!
Yes, He scared me a little bit there.
I hate when he doesn't feel well.
But he's back to himself!
Thanks for the birthday wishes!!!

Happy belated birthday Blue, and to what a big boy you have grown up. I suppose Cindi you almost cannot believe he was once such a little puppy. Wonderful photo of the two on the sofa, look at those legs hanging over.

Cindi Myers said...

Janneke,
You are so right, it's hard to remember him as a puppy.
He grew in leaps and bounds.
Every month he gained at least 10 pounds and he had so much extra skin to grow into!
I love that photo too!
:)
Thanks for commenting!
