Doin' what babies do: suckin' her toes

Doin' what babies do: suckin' her toes

Day two of parrot ownership went well. Yesterday I trained her not to squawk to get me to come visit her, which came in handy since today we had a yard sale outside. When she squawks she's about as loud as a blue jay, and sounds like one, too. But she only cried out a few times.

She got extended play time at least five times today. This photo is from our evening play time, which turns into nap time for her, seems like. Tonight she fell asleep on her back laying on my chest. I covered her with a washcloth as a makeshift blanket. Couldn't have been cuter!
