Sylvia and Tripod

My parents just left this morning leaving me with both Tripod (our new 3-legged dog) and Sylvia (just back from a 3 month vacation). Peter's not home, so I was by myself with both of my girls. So I decided to video them.

Sylvia certainly seem a happy Birdie and Tripod has a smile on her face.
Lots of to go around in your home.

Look at Sylvia begging scritches from mommy! I think she really missed you.

If you don't mind me asking, why the 3 month vacation?

Awww home alone with the girls.
Sylvia looks very happy to be home with Mommy
and Tripod looks very comfy on her back

Catherine: There's lots of love in this family. I know it sounds ...odd, but I now think my family's complete (even though I do plan on having children one day).

Andrea: Nope, I don't mind. I brought Sylvia with me to my parents' place and dropped her off about a week before Christmas; I only dropped her off because I knew my in-laws didn't want my bird around for Christmas (well, only one person would be truly welcoming of her and he was busy). We went home on the 26th in the middle of a nasty snow storm (got almost 2 feet of snow here, that's unheard of in Virginia Beach). Luckily she wasn't with us when we had a little accident. We intended for my parents to come up for my birthday (Feb 1) and drop Sylvia off, but my dad ended up getting Shingles (the adult version of chicken pox which is completely evil). They then couldn't come up. We then planned for this past weekend which worked out great! I've got my girlie back, and she's already established that she's the top dog in the family. (She bit of 2 of Tripod's whiskers )
We really didn't mean for her to stay in South Carolina for so long, but in the time she was there "on vacation", we realized how much we really missed her (especially hubby; he didn't realize how much he actually talked to her until he started chirping at an empty cage).

Carol: My parents told me that she was chatting so much on the drive up to visit; we have a feeling she knew she was going home. We now have a joke that we could release her anywhere along the route we take and she'd fly at car-window-height all the way back home, she knows it that well. Tripod actually sleeps like that...it's weird But her weirdness makes her perfect for our family (even though she's not feathered)

I love the name "Tripod!" Both of your babies seem very happy and spoiled!

Aw! Sylvia must have been excited to be headed home - Ducki usually doesn't say much in the car.
