Nani has been saying this word that I just can't make out. I know it's a word (or two) because she has a certain voice when she's talking. But I have no idea what she's saying! It's driving me crazy because it's so cute and I want to know. It sounds a little like "wonka", but of course this is not a word she would hear in our house. So it has to be something with the same sounds. I hope to decipher the code soon!

Lately she has been in so love with my husband, she always wants to be with him and will call to him when he gets home or when he leaves the room. I think he secretly loves her too, he uses baby talk and gives her kisses all over. He would never admit it though, even though it's painfully obvious. The great thing about it is that she still loves me and my daughter too. I have read that Caiques usually are not one person birds like many, if not all other parrot species. It seems to be true in my experience. That is one of the many reasons I decided to get a Caique in the first place. My Quaker, Watson, was definitely a one person bird and wanted only me. He preferred women over men so if I was not around he would go to other women. He was a biter too, even to me. But he wasn't vicious, just an old crab. On the contrary, Caiques seem to have a delightful, free spirit kind of personality.

I'm so happy to have my sweet Nani in my life!
