Jimmie is talking to all of you!

Happy Sunday everyone! 

My parakeet Jimmie is such a good talker!  

He has at least 8 full sentences he says clearly all day... everyday!

He has such a big personality but is so shy in front of the camera.  Fred​ stealthily got this video for you to enjoy. 

  It has a few clear words you can hear.

Friday Funnies ~ Sports Night with Jimmie!

Happy Friday everyone!

It is me...

Jimmie!

Yay!

It is a Holiday Weekend and time to PLAY!

Two of my favorite things to say are...

"Come Here Archie... You are so CUTE!"

and

"Come and Play with me Archie!"

I have been saying this to Archie all day but, he is a little bit worried about playing with me.

Don't tell anyone, but I think my pug, Archie, is part chicken, and even though I am a parakeet, I am more of a doggie than he is!

I''ll show you what I mean...

I love to play ball...

while Archie would rather be a cheerleader on the side lines.

and I love to play frisbee!

Archie just sits & watches it fly over his head and then looks at you like a pug statue wondering who is going to go and get it.

Funny little guy!

He has a lot to learn! :) 

Well... I will train him to play games.

We have all weekend to play!

Tee hee!

What are you all up to this weekend?

Please leave us a note and tell us all about it!

We cannot wait to hear!

Friday Funnies ~ Rise & Shine! Breakfast is served!

Happy Friday everyone!

It is me...

Jimmie!

I am so excited because it is my favorite time of the day!

It is time for breakfast!

Yay!

My mom makes me fresh food and serves it to me twice a day and then plays with me!

I love eating my food and then hopping over to dad's cereal bowl and diving into his too!

Here is a video of me eating Grape Nuts, Fresh Pineapple, berries yogurt and washing it all down with some milk!

LOL!

Now all I need is dad's sleeve to wipe my face!

Today is going to be a good day!

What are you having for breakfast?

Please leave me a note and let me know!

I would love to hear all about what's on the menu for today!

Friday Funnies ~ Jimmie Sings R-Chee a Tune!

Happy Friday everyone!

It is me... Jimmie!

I am here with my brother R-Chee, and I have been practicing a new tune for him!

I can now say lots of things, but every time my mom tries to capture a video of it for you, I clam right up. :)

So she took these photos of us and I thought I would tell you instead of show you today what I said. :)

OK!

Here we go!

and a one, and a two and a three...

"Here I am,

Here I am, 

Here I am Archie, 

Here I am!"

"Come & Play with me!!!!"

"You are so Cute!"

"Jimmie is a pretty, pretty, pretty bird!"

"Jimmie is a goooood bird!"

I think Archie liked it!

How 'bout you?

Happy 1st Hatchday Jimmie!

Happy Wednesday everyone!

It is me...

Jimmie!

Guess what?

Today is my 1st Hatchday celebration!

One year ago today I hatched out of my shell at Colorado Budgies Aviary where I was lovingly hand-fed & raised by my first mom, Amy.

She is the most wonderful breeder!

My mom & dad took me home with them 8 weeks later and here I am a year later!

I learned how to...

Play with MY PUG, R-Chee

Fly to my mom's shoulder whenever she calls me.

and...

TALK up a storm!

I can say...

Come here R-Chee... Come and play with me!

Come here R-Chee... You are so cute!

Jimmie is a good bird!

Jimmie is a pretty, pretty bird!

Beep Beep!

Peek - a - boo

I LOVE you!

I am a real character I tell ya!

We are going to celebrate today with a big party and you are ALL invited!

Come on over!

We cannot wait to see you!

Friday Funnies ~ Tippy Tippy Toes

Happy Friday everyone!

It is me...

R-Chee!

Guess what my brother Jimmie thinks is a tasty treat?

Pug Toes and Tails!

I know I am sweet, but I feel like Elmer Fud is chasing me plotting to get his rascially pug! :)

LOL!

He is a fast little bugger!

Luckily he is a Chatty Cathy too!

He yells out...

"Come Here R-Chee... Come and play with me!"

and 

"Come here R-Chee... You are so cute!"

the whole time so I know where he is.

No chance of him getting run over or sat on in this game!

The only thing in the crosshairs in this game is well...

ME! :)

Looks like I will be getting lots of exercise this weekend!

What are you up to?

Please leave me a note and let me know!

Friday Funnies ~ The Pug Herder :)

 Happy Friday everyone!

It is me...

Jimmie!

Have you ever tried to herd a pug?

I thought it might be a quite a challenge...

But, as it turns out... it is really quite easy!

All you have to do is get behind them and run! :)

It turns out, puggies are not as complicated as I thought!

I think Archie will make a very good minion ...

Don't you?

Here is a movie I made of my first training session with R-Chee...

He is a fast learner!

Next I will get him to hoover up all the peas and grains and noodles I dropped from eating my breakfast this morning...

Kiss Kiss everyone!

Have a wonderful day!

I think mine is off to a great start!

What else should I get R-Chee to do for me as my personal minion?

Please leave me a note and let me know!

I would love to hear your ideas!

Friday Funnies ~ R-Chee Knows Whose Boss :)

Hi Everyone!

Happy Friday!

It is me... R-Chee!

Guess why I am running today?

There is a bossy little body in the kitchen so I am running around the backyard before he puts me to work cooking his lunch!

Do you know who this little guy is?

Let me give you a hint...

or better yet, hear it right from the horses' mouth...

Help me! :)

Friday Funnies ~ Splish Splash! Jimmie is taking a bath!

Happy Friday everyone!

It is me...

Jimmie!

Guess what my favorite thing to do besides talking up a storm?

It is singing in the shower of course!

I love to take baths fly over to my mom every time she is by the sink to have her help me!

Here is a little movie she took of me to show you how much FUN I have splashing around.  

The video seems to have a little blip right at the 37 second mark, but stick with me... I still have a few flip of the wings to show you before it is over. :)

This stinky guy is next but he does not know it yet...

He gets to shower in the bathroom upstairs with bubbles and everything!

What are you up to this weekend?

How are you celebrating the 1st day of Summer?

Please leave me a note and let me know!

Friday Funnies ~ Meet Jimmie the Fiber Artist

Happy Friday everyone!

It is me...

Jimmie!

Today is a fiber filled Friday here at my house!

I have been very busy helping my mom with FUN needle felting and crochet projects!

We will show you the crochet projects next week and the needle felting today!

Do you remember the Tunisian crochet doll she made of me a few months back?

Well, we decided that it was just not soft or fluffy enough to be me...

So guess what?

We needle felted a layer of wool onto my tummy and now I am fiber filled and fluffy just like I am in real life!

Ta Da!

Remember... You can always go back and change things you thought were finished when you made them!

New ideas, inspirations and the freedom to change things are gifts for us to explore and enjoy everyday!

That is the beauty of both Life and Art!

Life is Art...Art is Life!

Here are two short movies of me helping my mom create our next Tunisian Crochet project that we will reveal to you next week!

We had so much FUN making them and cannot wait to share them with you!

What are you up to this weekend?

Please leave us a note and let us know!

Happy Friday everyone!

It is me...

Jimmie!

Guess what?

I can talk!

I can say lots of things and momma captured some of them for you today in a video!

She had to be stealthy as I "clam up" as soon as I see her recording me so the first video is black but has sound for you to enjoy!

The second video is of me blowing kisses at you!

Some of the FUN things you will hear are...

Jimmie is a pretty pretty bird.

Jimmie is a Good Boy!

Peek A Boo

I LOVE you!

... and now I am learning how to say ...

Archie is a pretty PUG

cock-a-doodle-doooo

Kiss! Kiss!

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there to two footed, four footed, human or fuzzy & feathered kids!

Friday Funnies ~ Jimmie's Gymnastics

Happy Friday everyone!

It is me...

Jimmie!

Archie asked if I would write the blog post today as he is busy in the backyard looking for the Easter Bunny!

He loves to eat the "little pile of chocolates" they leave when he sneaks up behind them.

Hmmmm!  I think he calls them "peeps"! 

I hate to have to be the one to tell him they are really little "poops"!

Ewwww!

Silly PUG!

Today I am here to show you my gymnastic training I am working to perfect!

So far I can do the splits and I am working on lifting weights to build my strength for chin ups!

I am even recording my workouts like the Broncos do so I can fine tune my form & technique!

Here are two short clips for you to enjoy!

All I can say after this one is "Ta Da!"

and...

"Good catch mom!" :)

Speaking of talking...

I am told I am a bit of a chatty Cathy!

I am always practicing and singing and I make everyone laugh, so I must be a funny comedian too!

Mom is still trying to get a good video to share with you of me talking!

So far I can say...

Jimmie is a pretty, pretty, pretty bird

Jimmie is a good boy!

Peak - a - boo

and

I love you!

How FUN!

I love making people smile!

What FUN things are you doing this weekend?
