Vincent's First Christmas

Vince had a very fun first Christmas with Paula and Eric! He received all sorts of presents.

One of his new toys is a squirrel that almost looks like the real deal...we're not sure yet whether this was a good idea. LOL

Vince also received a Booda Bone from Grandma and Grandpa Wlos. He played with it all day on Christmas.

Playing in the snow with my Best Friend Eli!

It's the most wonderful time of the year....snow time!! Vince absolutely LOVES the snow. He likes to play in it, run around in it, eat it, and making it yellow - but not eating the yellow snow! There seems to be nothing more exciting than the snow. If Vince had his way, there would be fresh snow to run around in and eat every day.






Yes, Vince has a best friend. His name is Eli, and he lives across the street. Eli is the same age and size as Vince, so they are a perfect match for Puppy Plaaaaaay! Not to mention they look alike and were both rescued pups.

Unfortunately, Eli doesn't like to run around at top speeds like Vince does. Whenever Vince starts running around at top speed for several laps around the park, Eli sits down and watches. That is just too much effort to expend for Eli. If you can't tell, Vince is on the left.

Happy Birthday Vince!

Vince turned one year old on Thursday the 29th of November and we of course celebrated. We didn't bake a cake or have a puppy birthday party like some websites describe (http://www.amazingmoms.com/htm/party_dog_puppy.htm) but we did give him a little treat with dinner.

We chopped up an all beef organic hot dog and mixed it in with Vince's normal food. Oh, I should add that he's switched over from puppy chow to adult food in the last few weeks, he's all grown up! Vince snarfed down his food, fell into a food coma, and eventually got a little sick. We're not sure if it was the hot dog itself or the fact that he ate it in 1 minute that lead to his upset stomach.

Vince got a new bed and a puppy stocking (Christmas is coming after all) for his birthday gifts this year. I'm sure he didn't have any idea WHY he was getting new stuff, but he does seem to like the new bed!
