Life with the birds has been going really great! In a few weeks, we’ll have had Pascal for a whole year. He’s really changed our household. Everyone still pays him attention and we’re all enjoying being part of a “flock” again. Pascal is very loving and wants to cuddle and have his head scratched at night. He speaks a lot more phrases than when I last reported. There’s just nothing like coming home after a long day and having him call to me “How you doing?” in his cute voice. Let me tell you, I’m not often doing very well until I hear him and he makes me laugh. He can definitely wipe away my bad days. He gives us all so much joy and really has made our home a happier one.
Peanut is slowly progressing. He still will not allow us to pick him up, but he is much more tolerant of us being near him. Dave has him giving him kisses. I’m not that brave to put my face near him. For a while, he was saying hello and other mummblings, but that has kind of disappeared again. I bought him a playstand for next to his cage and he loves it. I made it near enough that he can climb over to it. He happily sits and plays there most of the time that he’s out of her cage.
Here’s a new photo of Pascal in my library at home. He sits on his portable playstand on my desk while I use the computer or do whatever. In this one, he’s playing with a chew ball–he really loves ripping these things apart.
