Talking She speaks!

Ralphie has spoken before...a long time ago when I first bought her she said "hello" (once), Ralphie (her name...once), and "I love you" (once). Seeing a theme?

She is very good at imitating noises already. I pretty much accepted she wouldn't be a talker because I'm not big on teaching her to talk in the first place...it's not my thing.

She has been making speech sounding noises for the last few weeks and as she is chattering on my shoulder now (and being a nuisance...naughty bird!) and she keeps repeating "Ralph, step up! Ralph step up!" I wonder if it isn't because for the last week I had to be out of town and my boyfriend has been caring for her and she heard that particular phrase a lot. LOL She's also doing a lot of muttering under her breath. Wonder what she's saying?
