Happy Birthday Dakota

On Friday we had a big birthday in the Hennessy household, Dakota turned 3 years old! Dakota has taken a backseat since Ella has arrived but we wanted to celebrate her big day and give her some extra treats. Dakota has really been great with Ella and loves to lay by her swing or crib and comes running whenever Ella starts crying. Ella loves when Dakota licks her feet. I think Dakota had a great birthday weekend.

We gave Dakota some steak for dinner instead of her usual dog food. She went crazy and ate it all in about 15 seconds. It was a beautiful weekend so we had a picnic in the park on Saturday and Dakota got to play with some other puppies.

It was another gorgeous day on Sunday so we went to watch Mike's soccer team play. I think we were his good luck charms because the team won and Mike scored 2 goals.

However, Ella slept through the entire thing, I guess she is not much of a soccer fan yet.

Ella is smiling and laughing all the time now. Here are some happy moments right before bedtime.

And finally asleep on a walk!
