bxSlider using numbered pager

I have this slider which works fine. I need to change the pager to be numbered like on the second image.

slider with normal pager

rendered by the following code

$('#dinner-slider').bxSlider({
    pager: true,
    auto: true,
    minSlides: 3,
    maxSlides: 3,
    slideWidth: 500,
    slideMargin: 10,
    control: false
});

The html looks like this (I am using holder.js for placeholder images)

<ul id="dinner-slider">
    <li><img src="holder.js/100px200?auto=yes&textmode=exact&random=yes&outline=yes" /></li>
    <li><img src="holder.js/100px200?auto=yes&textmode=exact&random=yes&outline=yes" /></li>
    <li><img src="holder.js/100px200?auto=yes&textmode=exact&random=yes&outline=yes" /></li>
    <li><img src="holder.js/100px200?auto=yes&textmode=exact&random=yes&outline=yes" /></li>
    <li><img src="holder.js/100px200?auto=yes&textmode=exact&random=yes&outline=yes" /></li>
    <li><img src="holder.js/100px200?auto=yes&textmode=exact&random=yes&outline=yes" /></li>
</ul>

I want it appear like this slider with desired pager

Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
