I'm sitting here laughing up a storm because Arapahoe and Caliente are in the other room and Arapahoe starts to get loud and Caliente says "stop that!" and then Marti says "speak up!".
Marti knows how to say "i love you" but only says it when he wants to (typical man). If I say it to him, I usually get "I knoowwwwwwwww" or "oh no!" as a response along with the oh so nice tongue sticking out. His new thing to say is "Daddy go to work" and then "Daddy didn't give me water!"

Now he just said "Daddy gonna get you!". I wonder where he comes up with this stuff sometimes! It amazes me how they can take words you've taught them at different times and put them together. Like when he gets in trouble, he looks at me and says "come on" and then puts his head down for skritches and says "gimme kiss!" And if you say "good boy" when he says something... he starts to say it every time he wants attention. Right now his thing is "one... two... three... fourrrrrrrr".
I also get tickled at the macaws when they hang themselves from the top of the cage by just one claw or Caliente will hang by both feet and poke her head out between her legs

I need to find something constructive to do huh
