Oh my gosh, where to start!?! Love everything that has been written so far. Maybe the way Gigi buzzes at her toys and pretends she is really mad? She's quite the drama queen.
I haven't tried giving our girl a bath yet. That would be adorable! They're such funny little ones.
Cute! They really are quiet!
Omgosh...what a character you've got there!! I love it!

Lol I do! I imagine her as some hot tempered little gal with her hands on her hips! Yesterday I was wiping part of her cage while she was on top. I use these bright colored little towels all the time around her, but that day she decided it was threatening. She makes this really quick buzz/squeal out of the blue. I looked at her and showed her the towel and she did it again. Then she wandered over to check out a toy. She is such a little parrot.

Forgot my favorite! Gigi just did it and reminded me! The tail flare! I put a pumpkin seed in her pellets and she just noticed and did her tail flare to show her excitement or displeasure, lol, not sure which.

We didn't mention the burrowing thing. Everyone said how they love to burrow and be careful sitting on a sofa, etc. when they are out. They might be tucked in somewhere. Well I thought I'd test to see if Gigi likes burrowing. This is what happened. She stayed there for more than 30 minutes, then stood up, chirped and pooped.

Yes! It's a baby blanket from my kids. 
I have offered the blanket on my lap to Gigi each day when she is out and she continues to burrow. She will tuck her head in, sometimes actually lay on her side, have her tail sticking straight up, whatever, then she will pop her head out and see whats going on. I am able to pet her and work on her pin feathers while she is there too. In the past I had only been able to pet her while she was hanging inside the cage, but now more and more she seems to like the contact. She is molting so maybe that's part of it. But I'm not forcing it, she is happy about it.

Look at that adorable sweetie!
I love Gigi in the blanket! I am going to try that .
I love the peeps and word practicing Pepito makes when he is falling asleep. They are so quiet - I could not figure out which bird it was or if it was coming from the dart frogs.
