Talking Savanah Savanah Savanah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank God I have this forum to fall back on, Or Id run everyone out of my life talking about her so much!

The other day, I think it was like 3 days ago now, I was talking to Savanah while I was doing my banking, and she said "HELL-OOO"( clear as say) the way I have been saying it to her!! I was like WTF???? How clever is my baby ???? She picked it up SOOOO quick!! in less then a week!!(its been a week as of yesterday)




Oh n I felt soo bad for her yesterday, Mummy had ALOT to do for my party yesterday, And I didnt get to spend alot of time with her(we usually have hours together),The poor lil bugger, But she has taken it in her stride and actually was REALLY good.

But now that my 21st party has been and gone .......Now we have the move to worry bout, Then it will be smooth sailing for us ........And I'll be able to get myself and Savanah in a REAL routine.

Thank you!! But the thunder of my birthday has really been stolen my Savanah!! LOL I dont mind tho I love her to bits already. Although there is a fair bit of hard work for her to put in, Specially from what I usaully do..................sweet F-A !!! Well besides clean the house cook etc. wich is like second nature, but it really is a change to be doing SOOO MUCH for her .......Not complaining YET!! Lol Just I really notice how tired I get and how much I do......Ive always said Im a sucker for punishment!!


TALKING: I have to keep pulling myself up at swearing or saying things that could be offensive.....Since she has picked it up so quick..and since we ARE planning on having kids Very soon Its VERY important that she dosnt pick up OFFENSIVE words or phrases, Not to mention for her safety NOT learning Rodney Rude!!! (wich my husband and his mate keep trying to teach her) I HATE RODNEY RUDE!!! Grrrrr!!

the first time is always awesome!! Sophie's first words were clear as a bell "g*damnit!!" Just like my wife says it when she messes up doing her nails. Happy to say that was the one and only time she has said it. lol

UPDATE: Savanah also says "awww" quite clearly....specially when I'm having a snuggle with her and petting her.

She is also singing heaps when I put music on while doing the house work....Oh she also Meow's lmao I get confussed if its her or the cat.

She is screaming less for food now aswell wich I can't complain about

Tiki is screaming less for food now too!
He also "meows" but it's weird because I don't think he is mimicking our cat since she never meows I wonder if that's just a normal eclectus sound LOL

He still just laughs. Trying to teach him HELLO!

Im not sure if its just Savanah that does this, But its worth giving it a go....

She loves to practice talking and figure out how to make noises when music is on, She preferes if she thinks no one is watching her .......And I talk to her , while she trys to copy what Im saying...

Yep Tiki does that when we watch tv, then we mute it to talk to him and he shuts up.

Cheeky bugger isnt he?? I turn mine down slowly and Savanah keeps going.

Its really funny ...Savanah is really comming out of her shell now.....She is almost the same as Kaytie(my maine coon) she has "witching hour" a time where she goes hypo...... She usually does this when she is on her perch (on the outside of the cage) she grabs her different balls she has and bounces them around....Chucks them on the ground OR at the cat Lmao then she does this wistle type noise, wich is what she does when she needs my attention (she knows she isnt aloud off the cage) So that I can fetch the ball or what ever she has thrown off. its so cute to see her do it though.




She's also using her feet HEAPS now, I think she uses her feet just for the fun of it ..... Since she has figured out how to use them .

Tiki still doesn't use his feet, he doesn't throw things either.

We heard him say Hello like "herrooo" twice today!
