Mama knows best - a family outing

I am loving all the pics of the new baby and Gracie :). Brown Headed have such a beautiful bright green in person. I'm waiting for the day you get a shot of the yellow under wings! Poicephalus cryptoxanthus - (means hidden yellow) :).

I love how Gracie is plotting to take over the world :D what an expression on her!

I had to download my Iphone after todays visit lol wayyy too many photos.
I tried sooo hard to get a pick of under the wings he/she was too quick with their stretches lol I'll get it tho! Hidden yellow is dead on! The different shades of green are amazing in person even the photos don't do it justice. I love the hints of blue on the wings too.

Your new addition to the flock is Adorable and so is Miss Gracie...Gorgeous pics of your two babies. The new baby has beautiful shading and looks real chilled on your daughters shoulder looks like she has made a friend there :)
 
What a sweet voice he has! He sure looks interested in everything going on around him, too.

Thanks :)

He is really chill and very inquisitive, fearlessly explores any toy I've shown him and is happy to step up and go back and forth between people granted he make his toy goes with lol
He tried to fly to me twice and the lil wings flapping away just sooo cute.

I did spend a bit of time holding him with a young Grey and he wasn't fazed and let the grey stand on his toy with he kept twittering away.. The grey is a month older and wasn't sure what to do with the toy so kept doing "woo woo" sounds lol kinda surprised the baby is so keen on shredding and playing with toys. Well he sure is coming to the right place lol we got toys comin outta everywhere. Mama isn't afraid of shopping lol

Kelly, great to know your name!
I was wondering how you could resist shopping with all the great toys I can see on the walls in the background in the store. I love shopping for bird toys more than shopping for anything else:)

That's the hope :) of course I'll pitch in, guide/educate, train as needed and play etc. with the baby. Gracie rules/owns me lol there is no denying it but after the life she lived she's deserves to have that. So my main priority is for the kids & hubby to all bond with the baby now so he isnt attached to me to a point of stressing Gracie out when he comes home. Now if Gracie accepts the baby & they are buds all bets off lol I'll have 2 tag along birdies & they can all play with fake baby croc birdie :)

Thanks. I recently realized everyone was calling me graciesmom and that's kinda weird lol
Hmm well the simple truthful answer is... I don't lol. I don't think I've shopped for myself since I got Gracie it's just so much fun.

Hubby and I have an agreement he doesn't ask & I don't tell. I have 2 Gracie only credit cards Amazon & Care Credit (she's had constant vet visits, testing Etc for the first 2 1/2 months ). Sooo I just make sure those are paid off in time & he doesn't hafts see bills lol. Then for other places & stores I use the bank account so he can live in an alternative reality where he thinks that's all I spends on Gracie lol Works perfectly
