Pretty bird (:

Today me and my sister were sitting in the living room with the birds. Toc was on my sisters shoulder and Cookie was playing along the bacl of the couch above him. Me and my sister were talking about Random things and The birds were having a great time. Cookie was chirping away and Toc was making lots of noises we haven't ever heard him make! I started to tell Ali about how i was trying to teach Cookie how to say "pretty bird" and how i thought she had been trying to say it when you hear a cute whispered "pretty bird" come from Toc. He'd been listening to us! His old owner told us he could say it - but that was the first time we'd heard it! It was sooo cute!

I hope things go well, too. Toc can't say it too clear, but i think thats a parrotlet thing. Its cute, though..

Cookie *seemed* like she had been trying to say it, but i'm not sure. i kept repeating and repeating it to her, and then i would stop for a few seconds, let her watch me, and then say it again, and she would start moving her beack.. For some reason i don't think she'll ever talk, she's already 3.. But i dont care , she's still my baby! :)

hah probebly not! :P hehe. I can see that, He's sitting there barbering, "stop Toccie" and he'll look at me with this really pathetic look and whine "pretttyy birrddd." hehe.

Toc *looks* like a sweeite - but that birds got attitude! he sure had you fooled! I agree 100% they think they're little amazons! we can't touch him, besides him sitting on out finger/shoulder, he rules over us. :P
