Oh Sweetie,
No this is normal... I am certified in grief counselling. It is absolutely normal to jump around like that. It is confusing because it is written in stages like you will pass from one step to another, however that is so very far from the truth. The process ebbs and flows like the ocean, and can take six months to several years.
Don't transfer the love or the grief to another in your care. They are individuals. Your grief for one should not take away from your love for the other.
Our hearts can be eternal springs of love and hope. Where better to spend that love, than on your new Lory? It will never mean that you have taken away or diminished in any way from the love you had for Little Bird.
We do have a guidebook, it is our personal faith and our hearts...
Tell your boyfriend, well wishes and peace, light and laughter to him.
It sounds like you are doing fine.... and I don't think another grey in the future (whatever time line that might be) is out of line.
