Pupcakes for Mac's 1st Birthday!

Mac officially turned a year old on March 7th! 
I can't believe this sweet puppy we brought home at 9 lbs is now close to 50 lbs and grown up so fast! He did get pretty spoiled for his birthday. We must have gone to Petco 3 times that week so he could pic out a little treat. He even stood right up and helped himself to a few treats at the all-you-can-eat treat bar. I was a little embarrassed. But he's so cute, everyone just giggled and said how beautiful he was. We are very proud of our sweet boy.

Mac was overwhelmed by all of his treats I gave him on his special birthday morning. He couldn't choose what to chew, lick, eat or play with first!
A GIANT bone from his daddy who was out of town, an extreme kong bone (a huge hit!), a peanut butter filled knuckle bone, a squeaky toy, and lot of treats! Even homemade Banana Pupcakes!

I wanted to do something extra special for Mac, so I decided I'd make him some birthday pupcakes! I was so excited. Mac watched intently the whole time.

Here is the recipe for these very easy and delicious pupcakes for your own little, or big pup!

I made the pupcakes in mini muffin tins so they were bite size for Mr. Mac. He LOVED them. He followed me and stared at em the whole night waiting for more. Another great thing was that the squished and fit perfectly in his Extreme Kong Bone! ( We LOVE this thing!) The treats were a great success!
Mac's Extreme Kong Bone! (Get one! It is a lifesaver for some extra occupied time!)

We also went to the dog park and ran like a speeding bullet, licked a few other dogs, in places not to be named, drank lots of water from 10 different bowls (One of Mac's favorite things...WATER!) It was a great day! Mac was pooped and so was mommy! We love you MAC! Happy 1st Birthday!
