We know that this space has been awfully quiet for the past few months.

There's only ONE person to blame.

#glaresatmummy

We're a little worried that our fans (if any) is gonna give up on us soon. 

#thatexplainsourworriedfacesabove

Firstly, thank you if you've been faithfully popping in to check for updates.

We really appreciate it.

#happyandthankfulsmilesforeveryoene

Secondly, while this blog has been absolutely dormant, rest assured that our lives haven't!

Yap, Mummy's only been lazy in not updating this space. She is still as diligent as she used to be in bringing us around to our favourite spots.

So do say hi (preferably with treats) if you bump into us!

#hengsheis #elsewewillkillherwithourjudgyfaces

#happyfacesfornow

Thirdly, we promise that we will be updating what we were up to for the past few months.

Trust us, A LOT happened. You'll probably already know if you've been following our instagram!

#seelaneverfollowthat'swhyyoudon'tknow #follownowhor

Despite that, Pecan ah ma is still the queen of the household. And yes, we are still her minions.

Though we suspect that Pippin has been plotting to overthrow the dowager.

#pippinalwaysdisturbspecan #poorahma

That said, I am still the only boy (so I'm status quo and very happy about it). And Shelly, she's still the goofy little girl who is more concerned about her ball than her hierarchy at home.

#simpleislikethatone

So, please hang in there!

We'll be back! SOON!!!

Pecan Ah Ma 14 liao

Our lovely ah ma turned 14 this September.

To celebrate her ancient-ness, Mummy decided to throw her a birthday party. 

The very first in the Loo Lim household.

#sohonouredhor

It didn't take too long for Mummy to decide the theme of the party - Woodlands!

#notyishunhor

Afterall, all our middle names are Woodlands related!

Our mini shoot with Joss

Mummy met a really nice (and extremely talented) intern, Joss, on her previous job.

And lucky for me, Joss is a huge fan of mine.

#theBHBsam #shesayiveryhandsome #ialsothinkiveryhandsome

So, when Joss asked if she could take some photos of us, we definitely had to say yes!

#gotfreephotoswhowillsaynoone #someoneismyfanleh

We chose our favourite place on Earth, Tanjong Beach for the shoot.

The photos in the entry are entirely shot and edited by Joss.

#whysotalentedone #howcomeourmummysolousy

Do check out her instagram for other amazing photos.

Meanwhile, enjoy our beautiful photos!

The good ol' days - NYC

Just a couple of months more will mark the 4th year I am back in Singapore

Yap, in case you're new here (Hi welcome!) or can't be bothered to scroll back to past entries (guilty~ like me..hehe), I am a New Yorker.

True blue one somemore.

#thesinglishonlyhappenedafterIcameback #Iusedtospeakinanaccenthor

I was born in New York state and stayed in Manhattan till I was almost 3, before I was whisked off to this little island.

To kinda mark the end of our adventure there, Mummy organised a photoshoot around our few favourite spots in the Big Apple.

And since Mummy spent too much money on it, she decided that it's time to go through them and showcase it on the blog again.

#cheapoislikethatone #mustkeepreusinguntilpeoplearesickofseeingit #sitinharddiskdonothingalsowastemoneyma

Here goes...

No one place can replace this place in my heart. Ever. 

My heaven on earth is, of course, Central Park.

It was the one place Mummy and I spent one too many afternoons at, all year round.

Our Yacht charter!

It was a long weekend and with long weekends come exciting plans!

This time, we were heading out to a fun day at sea!

Yap, Auntie J chartered a yacht for the whole extended family (thirteen two-legged ones and three four-legged ones)!

We gathered at Sentosa Cove and waited excitedly for our adventure to begin!

Ageing ah ma

As much as we would like to maintain that Pecan is forever young, we have to acknowledge that ah ma is indeed, ageing.

#dengdengdengdeng #yalafinallyadmitsheisOLD

Maybe not her craziness spirit, but her body.

We started noticing that Pecan was shaking and trembling randomly at times over the last couple of days and that got Mummy worried.

So off to the vet she went.

And we came back with a diagnosis that Pecan ah ma is...

Arthritic.

#seelatoldyousheisoldliao #sosadhor #nowIamabitworried

While this (relatively) genki ah ma is probably not quite close to going six-feet-under (fingers crossed!), her body is struggling to keep up.

Our modelling gig

We're adding the title of blogshop models under our belts.

#seenowweareatrueblueblogger #wearemodelstoolikethoseprettybloggersleh

Hehehe..

Well, technically, ohpopdog isn't a blogshop. It's an etsy shop.

#samesamela
When the kind people from ohpopdog asked if they could use us as models for their latest collection, Mummy said YES!
We have been fans of their products for a while and we really love all the gorgeous pics that they post on their instagram account.
And boy oh boy, after we saw the end products for the shoot, we're over the moon with how everything turned out.

Matchy-matchy with Pecan.

How we spent our saturday...

While lazy bums were still lazing in bed, these two early worms (one fat, one smelly) had already gotten a ton of exercise under their waistlines belts.

#yapourlazymummyactuallymanagedtodragherbuttoutofbed #itwasamiracle

Yap, this was how we spent our weekend - running around our favourite dog park, playing fetch.

Well, to be exact, one dog was working the fetch. 

The other was just... blocking the way.

#fetchlastillgottimesmileatcamera #cannotbelieveshecanbesocameraready

But again, I am such a pro and ah ma has zilch chance la.

It's no wonder she isn't usually interested in vying with me.

#cannotwinsaysola #nochancelor #yayasam 

Look at this cowboy go man.

#sopowerright

Concentration. Concentration.

Of course, when there are good days, there will be bad days.

#shithappens #alamak

Hey, but I'm still darn good k.

#arrogantbrat

Don't you just feel like slapping this yaya face?

HEHEHEHEHEHE...

Since Pecan has no chance in even getting near to the ball with me around, she decided to just fool around with the camera instead.

#goofygranny #四连拍 

We did come a long way from home to get here (our house too ulu la), so I decided to give ah ma a chance to actually catch something by taking a break. 

#tootiredtorunbutcannotadmit #mustactlikeIverygracious

GO FOR IT AH MA!

Like finally~

We got a good hour of workout while our parents sat around, enjoyed their Macs breakfast and chilled.

#daddysataroundplayinghishandphonelor #ourstupidparentsnevergiveusanybreakfastlor

Though we were pooped by the end,  we were all smiles!

This was actually our second saturday morning in a row spent at the dog run and Mummy absolutely loves it. 

Firstly, the crowd here is really lovely. 

#norowdydogs

Secondly, West Coast dog run is hugeeeee... Big enough for everyone to have their own space. 

For the whole time we were playing fetch, no one came to disturb us.

#maybetheyseemesopowertheyscaredla 

Most importantly, she goes home with two 'dead' dogs that will leave her alone for the rest of the weekend.

How perfect is that?

A ride in a beetle

We were invited by Volkswagen Singapore to take one of their cars for a test drive.

Although our trusty Gin has been pretty reliable for the past year, Mummy was more than glad to ditch him for the weekend for a sleeker ride.

#soheartlesshor

Hence, there was no way we could even refuse the offer!

#mummyisindeedcheapo

We stopped by the showroom to pick up our ride and also took the opportunity to 'mark' our territory around the vicinity.

HEHEHEHEHE

Sam tested: Ohiyo Pets

We were very honoured to be invited by Auntie QY to test out a basic grooming session at Ohiyo Pets.

And seriously, the invite couldn't come at a better time. 

We were a week away from our family photoshoot and cheapo Mummy was just about to groom us herself.

#lifesaver 

So, thank you Ohiyo Pets for this timely invitation!!

#cannotimaginehowwewilllookifmummygroomedusherself #disasterevaded #phew

"Oi, some privacy please?"

#stupidmummy

Opened in May this year, Ohiyo Pets is located at 3 South Buona Vista Road (around Pasir Panjang). While the decor isn't overly elaborated, we definitely like how clean and neat the place is!

#samandpecanapproved

(Photo source: Ohiyo Pets)

While the cleanliness of a grooming salon is an important factor, what matters even more to Mummy was that she got to stay throughout the grooming session. 

In fact, it's really something pet parents should do at each new grooming place!

Not only does it help to calm your furkids down, you can even start snapping Instagram-worthy pictures!

#posingwhilegroomingisaskillhor

After we got cleaned and clipped, we were sent to the tub for our baths.

#samnolike

Cheeky ah ma absolutely enjoying her scrub down.

#pleasescrubharder

Ohiyo Pets blend their own shampoo!

Today's flavour is.. Maracuja.

#ataswordforpassionfruitla

I is no fan of baths, hence my face.

#mylifesucks

We were also very honoured to be the first two lucky pooches to try out their Nano Bubble Spa.

Well, ah ma was the first la.

I was quite worried that they were gonna put me in the tub that ah ma soaked in.

Thankfully, they emptied and refill the tub just for me.

In fact, they do that for every single customer, so you need not worry about sharing dirty water.

#hengah #idontwanttobatheinsmellyahmawater

Not only was the bubble spa really comfy, it helps to infiltrate the pores of the skin by removing dirt, impurities, bacteria from the pores while cleansing the skin.

Apparently it also rids dog odours and keeps the pooch smelling fresher for longer!

#ahmareallyneedsthis

Next up,

blow drying!

The sparkingly clean Pecan.

Doesn't she just look so cuddly and fluffy?

#fakeonehor

Now, my turn.

"Yeah, please scratch that itch for me ya."

#shiokface

Ta da~

Clean and extremely adorable.

#whysogoodlookinghuh

Mummy went home with two sweet-smelling dogs while we went home with deliciously goodies from Animals Kitchen.

So, Mummy happy, 

we happy, 

everybody happy.

#itisahappyday

We really enjoyed our grooming sessions at Ohiyo Pets and with our paws up, we definitely would recommend it to you!

Best of all, transport service is available for just an additional $10! 

#soreasonable

Mummy's note: I really like how comfortable QY and Shane were with Sam and Pecan! I guess it always amazed me how groomers can clip the nails and clean the ears of these two wiggly rascals. And they did just that. Easy breezy somemore. Shame on me man. The dogs also went home smelling fresh for a loooong time. Another bonus! Of course, they looked perfect at our photoshoot. But again, I'm biased. =P

Sam @ School

I recently started Day School at Puppy Colours.

To no one's surprise, I earned the rank of a troublemaker after just one day.

I guess they don't call us Jack Rascals or Jack Russell Terrors for nothing.

#iamsuchanangelwhytheysayinaughty

Blending in like a boss.

Can't tell that it's only my second day at school huh?

#Iisanatural #highEQislikethatone

Sam, the school troublemaker. 

One look at my adorable naughty face and you will know why I am able to earn this honourable title so effortlessly.

#whygotdogsocuteone #yayasam #fiftyfacesofsam

I may be the oldest kid in school, but I definitely ain't the best behaved.

But oh well, they still adore me to bits.

#andsoithinkla

Yap, in case you can't tell, school days are a blast!

Can't wait to head back next week,

A Fuzzy Sleepover

It's been a while since we did something fun in our lives.

To spice our boring lives up a little, Mummy decided to throw us a sleepover party!

Hence, she asked us to invite our friends to join us.

But hor, we don't really have many friends.

#nothankstopecan #myfriendsareinNYC #weemocosoursleepoverlookspossiblyboring

Oh well, so we decided to make do and invited our three FuzzYard troublemaker friends!

Say hi to Electra the Unicorn, Aussie Shoo and Sushi the Fish.

Since it's a party, it was a must to wear hats.

#theunicornnohatcosthehorntoohigh

We spent our whole evening chilling and chatting about our lives.

(Screams: BORING)

And that was when we started to hear grumbling sounds coming from our little tummies.

Well, I mean a sleepover isn't really a sleepover without some yummy snacks!

Thankfully Mummy was thoughtful enough to prepare some desserts for us.

Since Shoo was our guest, we gave him the first sniff.

#youbetterdontpooptherelor #elselateryounoheaddontblameme

He took a tad longer than we liked, so Pecan ah ma decided to protest.

#didntknowhermouthsobigone

Mummy allowed us to pick what we wanted.

I was uber hungry and just couldn't wait to bite down on the Pupcorn Donut.

Strawberry icing for me and chocolate icing for Sushi.

Pecan ah ma decided to go for the Cupcake Toys instead. 

#shenohappythatElectrawantedthesamesnack

Of course, this was when I realised the truth...

those weren't actually edible. 

They were plush toys.

#kannabluffedbymummy #thedonutcannoteatonelor #nowmylittletummyisangry

Oh well, at least they worked well as handcuffs.

#kinkysam #iswearsushiislaughingatme

Pecan ah ma ah... still thought she got lucky and got to have two cupcakes all to herself.

HEHEHEHEHE...

#shedoesnotknowthatthosealsocannoteatone #stupidistupid #iswearsushiisalsolaughingather

Eventually ah ma discovered the prank.. and dare I say, she wasn't too impressed.

#whyourmummysocruel 

After meando Mummy had a good laugh, she finally whipped out a mystery box and announced that it was our real supper.

No thanks to her earlier joke, we couldn't quite trust her this time round.

#sureanot #wenobelieveleh

When she took the surprise out of the box, our jaws dropped and frowns were wiped off our faces like instantly.

#weverypracticalone #cannotissit

She actually ordered A King's Breakfast from Superdog Kitchen.

Who says we can't have breakfast for supper?

Thanks Auntie Gwen for the delicious tart.

#ifonlymummycancooklikethat #samtheking #nopecanisnotmyempress #pukes

To make our supper even more awesome, Mummy prepared milk for us!

Wheeeeee..

#okayweforgiveyouforbeingalousycook

Okay, now I feel kinda bad for our guests.

Cos, the moment we saw the tarts, we couldn't give a sh*t about them.

#sorrynotsorry

Pecan is so matchy-matchy man.

Her pink hat and her Pink Bubblelicious Easy Pet Eater.

#pinkoverdose

I definitely have more taste with The Chevy Easy Pet Eater.

#youcannotbuytaste

Okay, the truth was, we really didn't care what our bowls looked like. 

We just wanted to get our jaws on the delicious tarts.

HEHEHEHEHE

#nowmytummyfinallyhappy

To make sure that we have a good night's sleep, Mummy decided to warm the milk for us.

Although this was our very first time tasting it, we absolutely loved it.

#pecanahmaalmostdidntwanttosharelor #howcomeyouwaitsolongthengiveussuchayummydrink

After we ate and drank to our fill, we were really to tuck in with our friends on our comfy beds.

Pecan chose to snooze on a Tipping Point Reversible Pet Bed while I was rather pleased on my Rio Pillow.

#ithinkshoofaintedfromahma'sbadbreath

These beds were so comfy that Mummy is a little sad that we rather sleep on them than squeeze on her bed with her.

#sorrynotsorrylor #nomoregettingkickedbydaddy #nomoregettingsquashedbydaddy

Nighty night....

On hindsight, the sleepover wasn't that bad.

Afterall, we were exhausted and our tummies were beyond satisfied.

Hopefully Mummy organise another one soon!

Care to join us?
