She is growing up too fast! We had an emergency trip to the vet yesterday with our female turquoisine parrot, Mrs Tweet Tweet. Bella sat in the vets telling the vet all about what the animals say. We so far have a roar of a lion and hippo, woof woof, meow, quack quack, baaaaaa, moo, neigh, bzzzzzzz for the bee, snort for the pig and a clap clap for the chicken...clap clap as in cluck cluck! The vet was very impressed by her repertoire and just loved Bella. She's an exotic pet vet so got a tortoise out for Bella to "explore" then took her out the back to the nursing area to see an enormous iguana, a ferret, some more birds and a few other critters. Bella was so excited by her visit she meowed all the way home in the car.
This afternoon we popped to the local shopping mall and while Daddy (yes Daddy!) was looking in the shops, I was chasing our little lady up and down the length of the place. She sat in every toy car she could find, waved to all the other children she passed on the way, befriended numerous sales staff as she bobbed in and out of the shops. She managed to collect a balloon, a pencil and an inflatable coca cola thing willingly given to her by adoring staff. We stopped off for a quick bite to eat before leaving and Bella decided she wanted to drink from a cup and not of the sippy cup variety. She was doing such a good job that I had to comment what a big girl she is now, only for her to upturn the entire contents all over my legs. Famous last words huh?!
Ooh, Mrs Tweet Tweet is due to hatch her eggs any day now, maybe tomorrow. She's sitting on 3 of them so I will update if we have any teeny tiny chicklets tomorrow!

The only thing 'big' about your little girl is her personality!
Very exciting about chicks...can't wait to see pics! (there's a budding poet in me!)
