Piappies X'mas 09 Photo Shoot & Pressies

It's me, Fudgie. Happy Christmas to all our furry friends!!! As we mentioned in our previous post, we spent Christmas Day having a photo shoot. First thing we needed was a X'massy location. We all wanted to pose around our indoor X'mas tree but due to Mama's X'mas tree "concerns", Mommy thought of the garden and letting us have OUR very own Christmas tree (ok, maybe more of a shrub --- heehee)
Gathering us all together was another challenge so we have to take turns with the flashy box. Presenting, our 2009 X'mas Photo Shoot... weeeeeee....

Princess: "Alright, Mommy, you want my Hawaiian pose again? Is this ok? Hmmm... Mommy, are you putting a ball as our tree topper? I think we need a star!"


Frappie: "Mommy, how am I doing? Did you say that I'm also a natural model like Daddy Fudgie? Don't I look silly sitting on the garden table with the tree? Are we gonna do this every year? Ok, Mommy, I'm smiling now."

Mocha: "Uh oh... Mom, Sugar is behind me but it seems he has disappeared! It must be the flashy box's fault! --- heehee And the decors seems to disappear too. Ok, the decors are my fault, I did not eat them though, I just knocked the tree off several times and some decors fell off, so Santa, we're still good that I made it to your list this year."

Sugar: *sniff sniff* "Mommy, is this really a tree? The blooms are a bit strange... Hey, kitty, check this out and come join me here in this shot."

Bullet: "Hey, Scrappy, I was told that this is Santa Paws tree, let's smile away to say thank you for the treats he sent our way. Scrappy? Are you listening to me?"
Scrappy: "Hmmm... Those red and white thingies look yummy to me. You think Mommy would mind if I try one? You can distract the flashy box as I reach for that candy cane-looking ring... ready, Bubu?"

* * * * * * * * *

Fudgie: Back to us, Frappie. We also promised to share with you the wonderful surprise we got from the Animal Doctor, the Secretary & Moymoy, Trudis, Scarlet, Woody, Bambi, Jappy & Pusit. Frappie was the lucky one to open the gift and taadah...

Frappie: "These treats are our fave, Dad! Thank you so much Doc, Ms. Secretary & Scarlet, Trudis, Moymoy, Woody, Bambi, Jappy & Pusit! Santa Paws also got us some pressies and treats. Check them out!"


Still Frappie: "Aside from these, we also cherish all the wonderful holiday greetings you have sent out to us. We thank you for making our Christmas truly meaningful. Mocha, Sugar & I surely had a great first Christmas!"

Now, Frappie asks: "Hmmm... Mommy, what happens during New Year, then? Furiends, how are you planning to celebrate New Year's eve?"

Happy New Year to each and every one of you in advance!

Christmas Pressie from Special Friends

Mommy was so busy during the Christmas rush that she did not get the chance to get us all geared up for the holidays. We had a special Christmas photo shoot on Christmas Day instead. Mommy used Fudgie and Frappie's shots for our greeting. She promises to post all our photos in the next post. For now, let us share with you a surprise Mommy had for us. Actually, it was a surprise for her as well.

This is our Christmas tree this year. We were not allowed to get close to it though. Mama fears that we could:

a. rip it apart

b. get zapped by the twinkling stuff
c. open the pressies
d. all of the above
On Christmas Eve, Princess was watching at the bright twinkling stuff, when suddenly she saw something that caught her attention! Hmmm... alright, let's get a better focus on the flashy box...

Princess: "I think I see our name there, Frappie! Would you sneak inside and check it out?" Frappie: "But mom, those twinkling stuff and all the sparkling decors are too hard to resist. I don't think I can be in my best behavior and Santa Paws will be passing by tonight. I can't risk not getting pressies from him. It is MY first Christmas!"
Mocha: "I do see a package with 'To: Piappies' on it" THAT is for us, right?!"
Sugar: "Weeeeeee surprise surprise!!!"
Fudgie: "Alright, off to bed everyone. Scrappy & Bullet are zzzzing away already, Santa Paws is on his way and we want him to visit our world, right?!"

Truly a wonderful surprise from our friends: Moymoy, Trudis, Scarlet, Woody, Bambi, Jappy & Pusit. Thank you so much!

Stay tuned to see what great pressies we got this year and of course what is inside the white package above. Weeeee

Wordless Wednesday

Mocha --- Sugar --- Frappie

It's Christmas Time!

Hello Everyone! Fudgie here --- as we get closer and closer to Christmas, Mommy and our human family are getting more and more busy with the holiday rush. One thing I'm busy with is trying to explain to Frappie, Mocha and Sugar what Christmas is all about. It is their first Christmas, you see. Well since I'm no expert about Christmas traditions since it is just MY second, I thought I'd ask Mommy to help me explain.

Alright, looks like I've been tricked by Mommy. I found myself in a tub and getting sprinkled with lots and lots of droplets of water! Mommy said that I should just imagine that those are snowflakes. Silly Mommy, she just wants to give me a bath! It does feel cold and refreshing, though. Snow does give you that feeling, right?

Hmmm...Mommy, why is the "snow" coming from the garden hose and not the sky?!

From what I remember from last year's Christmas celebrations, our human family were all busy running around doing shopping, cooking, wrapping of presents, and many more.

Mommy attempted to enlist me and Bullet as part of Santa Paws' helpers. Bullet's Momster got us to wear reindeer ears and a button nose that lights up. She just could not find a photo worth posting since we really did our best not to cooperate. Our Mama also dressed up the house with lots and lots of lights, red and green decors, Mr. Snowman, lots of angels and she also had a strange tree that was placed inside the house. The tree also has lots of lights, ribbon and other pretty ornaments. We also played fun Xmas songs.

The one I remember the most is getting really cool things like stuffies, treats, squeaky toys and frisbees. We got called one by one by each of our human family and received wonderful gifts and lots and lots of hugs!

So, Frappie, Mocha & Sugar, Christmas is a time where we spend with family, exchanging greetings and sharing lots of treats and pressies. Now that we have opened our world to our wonderful bloggie furiends, we got more reasons to have happy memories for us to create this Christmas time. We share the love to each and every one of you.

Now, how do YOU celebrate Christmas? Do share with us what you are looking forward to this Christmas season.

THANK YOU!!!

Bullet & Scrappy: "Ok, Mommy so where are the treats? We don't see them anywhere. C'mon... bring in the pumpkin?... Please?"

Sugar's Feature Post

It's Princess here. First of all, we thank you for all the good words and wonderful comments you leave on our posts. It makes me especially proud of my lil piappies.

It's now time for me to tell you a bit more about the youngest in our pack. Sugar came out almost an hour after Frappie and Mocha so he really came as a pleasant surprise to our human family especially our Mommy. I think I could say that Sugar is the closest to me. Sugar was really a shy piappie. He always cuddled and stay beside me in my basket.

Sugar always has a gentle smile on his face --- as you notice in the series of photos here. As these piappies grew up Sugar learned to get along with Frappie and Mocha and even enjoys playing bitey face with Mocha a lot.

There was a time they always played hide and seek in Mama's garden. Sugar would try to hide behind plants and bushes. Frappie was really good at this while Sugar always stood out. It never stopped Sugar from trying and he would always get dragged out of the bushes.

Perhaps he would blend better against the walls than plants and leaves. What do you think?

Sugar grew up so fast! Check out this pink chair we used to put these lil piappies during our regular photo sessions.

A few months later, he's standing up on his own on the very same chair. Hmmm... could it be that mommy gave them too much treats?

That's Sugar playing with Mr. Lobster --- probably one of the VERY few stuffies that survived Fudgie, Scrappy, Bullet & I. Well alright, it is usually Scrappy and Bullet that are responsible for the "murder" of most of our stuffies here in piappies world.

And now, to give you an idea of how much these piappies have grown over the past months, that Sugar, Mocha and Fudgie.

To our furry friends who may have been confused with Mommy's posting of our old photos, allow me to give you an official run down of how old we are now:
Princess: 1 year and 6 months
Fudgie: 1 year and 4 months
Scrappy & Bullet: 1 year and 3 months
Frappie, Mocha & Sugar: 6 months

We really enjoy reading all your family stories and day to day activities and we love sharing adventures with you. We also appreciate your taking the time to drop by our world. It is truly amazing to find people, puppies and kitties get connected to share happy stories, fun trips, playtime and walkies and even struggles. Thankies to both our human and furry friends!

Have a great week ahead!

A Moment for Friends

We really believe in the power of prayer so we would like to invite you to be help us spread these messages and say a prayer our furry friends who are currently going through some struggles.


First, we would like to take this chance to help Jake & Miss Fergi spread this important message. We here at Piappies World would like to take a moment to say a special prayer for Miss Snickers. Tonight at 1am (Manila time), we pray that Miss Snickers gets to spend more time with her loved ones and that she be given strength and courage to fight her sickness.

Please head over to Jake & Miss Fergi's to know more about how to be part of this special prayer moment.

We also say a prayer and send lots of postive thoughts to Maxdog of South Africa. Max was to under go surgery but has been advised to consult a specialist and maybe go through some more tests. He will be going to the V-E-T on Monday hope and join all our paws together that the Doc brings good news for Max and her family.

Please drop by and visit Maxdog and send a message of encouragement, happy thoughts, prayers. Sometimes, having friends around during difficult times like these make it easier for us to overcome.

Have a good weekend to each and every one and we thank you for all your friendship.

Preview of Sugar

Hello there! I'm not really a newborn in Piappies World. It's me, Sugar! Watch out for me in the next post...

Halloween 09 Parade

Hello to all our wonderful furry friends! It's Princess here. To show our support to our great friends Martha and Bailey, the piappies played the best trick on Mommy this year. We were all one in avoiding the flash box! Mommy tried to hide these photos but as soon as we her fixing the post, we are able to press "Publish".

So here we present to you our Halloween 09 Parade ---

It's Frappie's turn to wear the witch outfit --- he is the only one that could fit in it.

Does the Devil outfit look familiar?

Mocha is just pretending to sleep so she doesn't get tricked by Mommy.

Sugar really made the effort NOT to look at Mommy.

Scrappy and Bullet laughing at the how the protest is working.

Even Mommy's favorite model, Fudgie, cooperated by keeping his eyes away from the flashy box. He did agree to sit on a chair though --- you guys know how he loooooves posing. Waaaaah

This is Mommy's last attempt ---- a Piappies Family Portrait --- I bet she was hoping she could catch at least one of us smile at the flashy box ---- Fail!
Wait a minute, I think there is one who might hop over to Mommy's side any time soon. Do you notice that one of us constantly found himself in most of the photos?! Yeah, he did not look at the flashy box alright but seems like he ENJOYS having his photos taken even without treats.

Frappie... Frappie... Frappie!!!

PS: You all can see how much Frappie, Mocha and Sugar have grown. Oh... sorry, Mommy is just to feature Sugar in the next post. We apologize for Mommy's being a slow poke in getting our posts updated.

Finally... Presenting Mocha!

Weeeeeee! Hello furry friends! Thanks for your patience. Finally, I got my turn to tell you more about me. Just a quick update on our Halloween Parade '09 - seems like Mommy got more tricks than smileys from us this year --- you guys will find out when she posts some photos soon. She made true her promise that she would feature me first.

Here I am with daddy Fudgie, he always enjoyed playing with me, Frappie and Sugar when we were lil piappies. He does reward us with snuggles and zzzzzz time and he also shares those squeaky toys with us. Though I am the only girl amongst the lil ones, I was (and still is) the most adventurous one. I guess that's the reason why Mommy would always catch me zzzzzzing away every so often. I probably burn more calories faster --- running, jumping arouns and exploring every little thing I get my paws on ---- that I need to recharge more often.

Enjoying zzzzzz time with daddy Fudgie

Speaking of adventures and exploring, see how I managed to discover that the view from here is far better than from inside the basket. Come Sugar, why don't you join me up here. Frappie... wake up there... did you faint already because the V-E-T office is near? Waaaaah

I also usually get my way all the time. Notice how Frappie and Sugar is trying to cover me from the flashy box, well, our lil piappies group photo cannot be complete without moi!

I can also be loving and sweet! Alright, you got me, I'm being defensive here, Frappie and I used to have lots of bitey face moments growing up but I do care for him lots.

This is more or less how I look now, try not to notice my lil piappies fatness. I am a growing piappy. Besides, what do you expect from all the treats and zzzzing away I so enjoyed during my first few months. I really am happy to be here in our world. I know we are quite a handful sometimes but we do our best to listen to our human family and behave --- just love adventures here, Mommy.

With this, I would like to greet our Mama (that's granny, actually) a Happy Happy Birthday. I always enjoy learning to dance the cha-cha with you. We all love you lots, Mama!

Tune in next for our youngest, Sugar. Worry not, furry friends, Mommy says she'll be more efficient and get on to his feature post asap. We are growing fast, right?
