MEET BONGO, NOODLES' NEWEST FRIEND!

Bongo is 13 years old, and THE cutest, most well behaved grey ever. He is so funny! He talks up a storm and can even spell his own name. Mark (Bongo's owner) said that he will only take showers with two people, him and his son's girlfriend (who has massive boobs). HIS FIRST CRUSH! LOL. I guess he even burrows down into her cleavage. WHAT A PERV! Ha ha ha! He definitely picks who he likes and doesn't. Mark was telling me that one time his girlfriend (who Bongo HATED) came over wither her son. Her son kept sticking his fingers in the cage and bugging Bongo. Mark was telling him not to do that, because he will bite him....well, he kept it up, and SNAP! Bongo bit the kid's finger and bit all the way to the bone! (I hope he learned his lesson.) When I met Bongo, he would just stare at me, then he jumped from Mark's arm, to me and crawled up to my shoulder. Mark was, and I quote, "Wow! Bongo loves the SHIT out of you!". Ha ha. It was pretty stinkin funny. We are going to get together with Bongo and Mark, and hopefully Bongo will teach Noodles how to be a cute, fun parrot! Cross your fingers, just don't stick them in the cage...

BEING POOPED ON SUCKS! : )

As you can probably tell, I am completely in love with baby Noodles. I drive up to Bountiful every day to see her. (I am saying "her" now because Kaylen and I have a strong feeling she is a girl.) Anyway, she is getting a lot more confident around us. Last night while I was visiting Noodles, she showed her love for me in a way that I wouldn't have preferred, but hey I'll take it! She pooped/peed ALL OVER MY ARM! And she doesn't poop little.... YUM!

She is so weird! She loves my eyelashes for some reason, she always goes after them (scary!). I hope I don't end up losing an eye! She was squeaking and trying to talk yesterday, which was WAY cute. She just has these little baby noises. There is an Amazon in the cage next to her who is pretty talkative and she was trying to talk to Noodles, but all Noodles could do in response is squeak. It was hilarious! She was very free with her kisses last night! She kind of nibbles on your bottom lip and pokes you will her tongue. I can't wait til you all get to meet her! The best thing for her will be to meet lots of people and have lots of people hold her and play with her. That way, she won't be afraid of new situations and people.

AND THEN THERE WERE THREE...

WELCOME TO THE FAMILY NOODLES!

Most of you don't know this, but Kaylen and I have just added another member to our family. (No, I'm not pregnant!) :) Meet Noodles!!! He is our new Congo African Grey Parrot, the smartest of all the parrots. Noodles will be coming home in less than a month. He is still a baby, so we have to wait for Noodles to be weened. Noodles LOVES to cuddle up by our necks and rest. He is still VERY clumsy!!!!! Noodles also loves to growl at people he doesn't know. I am referring to Noodles as "HE", although we don't know the sex. They have to be DNA tested to know whether it is a male or female. I guess we will find out if Noodles lay eggs in the next 8 years. Noodles is a life-long commitment, as they live 50-65 years.

We are SO excited to have you as the newest Olsen, Noodles!!!

We love you!! :)
