Hi, Everyone
Just wanted to introduce myself. Actually my first post was the one about traveling with Baby to Puerto Rico. Thank you to everyone who replied! We decided not to take her.
Anyway, to introduce us - our TAG Baby is 7 years old (hatched April 8, 1998). We got her when she was 2 months old and weaned her ourselves. DH and I have no kids yet but Baby and she's excellent practice for a child, by the way. My family adores her and her "grandma and grandpa" my mom and dad are gaga for her and she has them in the palm of her hand - ahem, foot.
Some of the "trouble" Baby's gotten into:
- Cut her tongue the Christmas after we got her - ON CHRISTMAS DAY we're at the Animal 911 clinic. Stitched her up, had her little tongue sticking out of her mouth all day with little strings (stitches) on it. Had to feed her soft comfort food and since pet stores were closed, bought Gerber rice cereal, which she loved. It was DH and I's first Christmas as married couple. Sigh.
- Second mishap- Fall 2004 - Managed to swallow metal (still can't figure what or how - same with the cut tongue), was hospitalized for 10 days - Meanwhile I was a basketcase at home and work those 10 days, crying all the time.
Favorite foods (and she's specifically asks for them): cheese (ONLY white american-tried lowfat -no way), bread, pasta, milk and pizza. When pizza is delivered, she knows what the whote box contains. Must give her small pieces or she'll eat too much!
Favorite words - "Spookie", "Booberry", "Lovebirdie 1", "Punkie" (these are lovebird names), SHHHHHHH! (she says that to the lovebirds when they're too noisy), "I love you", "gimme kiss", "You want your mommy?", "You want some CHEE?" (Cheese), "Poop baby-good BABY!" and the "F" word - Specifically "What the F YOU?". Don't know where she got that.
Funniest thing she ever did - bite me really hard on the lips when I asked for a kiss and then said "I LOVE YOU!" (How can you get mad at that?)
Oh, gee, I could go on and I about her! That's all for now.
