Tinkerbell update

Tinkerbell has settled in just fine. She isn't a big fan of me, but as many of you know we have a love triangle going on here. Tink loves Elwood, and Elwood loves me!
Elwood climbed off the play gym today and came to me for some preening; bless his heart - everyone here is molting -and he was soooooooooo itchy! Tinkerbell had a fit and tried her darnest to climb down. She was screaming and then quietly calling "Elwood". When I went and got her she sat in my lap for 2 seconds and bit me. She found herself on the floor with a firm "no bite". When I picked her up after a few minutes she was on her best behavior.
She is a bit more stable and climbs all over the play gyms. In the play room she is everywhere and she and Buck Buck compete to see who can chew up the most in one day!
Tink's vocabulary is improving - she likes to ask "how are YOU?" When I asked her today she told me "fine". We are still working on getting her to say her own name instead of Elwood's.
She really is a sweet addition and it is so fun to watch her and Elwood play together; they are constantly mumbling back and forth.

WEll, you only hurt the ones you love (LOL). Don't worry, she'll find you irresistable soon enough. Then you'll have all of these big blue bodies hanging all over you like some kind of fan dancer. I know that, its pretty much my uniform of the day.

THE OUTLAW

Thanks for the update Laurie, I have been thinking 'bout ya'll. I'm with Nanthee on this one, won't be long before you can't get her to step down!!
