Just a Proud Braggy post!

I just had to come over and talk about what an awesome Doggy Day I had!!   I was asked to bring one of the Chis along to our Beading Group this morning so I dolled little Cinna all up bath and all and took her along.

She was an absolute angel there too!  I hadnt taken her 'visiting' before and wasnt sure how she would do but she was perfect!  I am so proud of her.  She stuck right by my chair on her blanket.  She let people pet her.  She didnt bark or growl.  And she didnt piddle on their carpet!!  What more could you want?!

And on a related note.. We took little Fen over out on an errand yesterday and he was very good and let people pet him too.  :-)

Here is another picture of Cinna in her darling dress made by Susan over at Blue Ridge Crafter on Etsy.

Seven to a bed..? Yep!

Well Bedtime is a little more hectic now that all the little ones are officially sleeping with us.  Susu and Ginger have slept in the bed with us for years and the puppies started about 3 days ago.  I originally was just taking Cori but then the others were jealous and since they are very spoiled little doggies they got to get in bed too.

So far it is working out well.  They are nice and warm and snuggly.  Of course Cori prefers to sleep on Dads head.. hahaha.  And there is some growling and grumbling while everyone works out their little sleeping places.  And of course we get trampled during their 'Yay! We get to sleep with Mom and Dad' excitement time.  But all in all it's nice having them all with us at night now.  :-)

Beading Buddy Fail..

I was working on a necklace for a friend this weekend and Cori wanted to snuggle on my lap.  Sounds good to me because who wouldn't want a snuggly warm puppy on their lap, right?

I scoop him up and plop him in my lap and tell him there are two rules for being Moms beading buddy.  Dont eat the beads and don't eat the string.

Well it took all of about 20 seconds before goofy-butt is spitting a little mouthful of teeny tiny beads out all over my lap!  hahahaa  Thankfully he just spit them back out since they are actually glass.  But talk about not following instructions and its not like they smell like chicken or anything!!  Geez!!!

Of course he is currently licking the laptop so who knows with this boy!

Anywho... keeps your eyes peeled for some updated pictures and a 'Fashion Show' in the coming days!!  That's right!  The chibabies got some awesome new clothes made my Susan over at  http://www.etsy.com/people/blueridgecrafter  and I cant wait to show them off!!  :-)

Wordless Wednesday: The Guilty Face!!

Gets a little hard to deny with pee pad fluff in your mouth now doesn't it?

Welcome to The Charming Chi Awards Ceremony!

My new schedule at work has left me behind in a few things and one of them is passing on Blogger Awards.  It has really been a wonderful surprise how encouraging and supportive other pet bloggers have been to my new venture here at The Charming chi.
This blog has actually received a few awards over the past month and I really wanted to take the time to type up my acceptance speech and pass the awards along!!

So I have a little extra bling on today for the occasion and a bit of chocolate so it feels more like a celebration!  Of course I'm sure the Chis are busy making confetti while I'm away so they are certainly in the festive spirit of things too!!   

A Huge Huge Thank you to Patrice and Higgins from The Adventures of Higgins for the Pawsome Blogger Award and the Liebster Award.  Patrice has been so wonderfully supportive of my efforts here and has been a great encouragement to me.  <hugs> Thank you so much Patrice!!!  And if you have stopped by her blog in awhile you really should because Higgins is a cutie with a larger than life personality and you are guaranteed a smile when you visit!!
