Celebrating my Birthday

Arrrrrrrrrroooooooooooo!   

Today is my Birthday and I am now 5 yrs old.

Look.... I got me a parrot (and other great stuff). 

It squeaks and everything but I don't think it can fly (sad).   So I bring it along wiff me when I run.

Maybe if I run really fast, it'll take off!

Parrot's a bit of a show off and even got into my official birthday portrait.

Don't I look all grown up?

Exhausting.

Oh... did I tell you dat Parrot talks all da time?

I wonder what I should name my Parrot.   Got any ideas on a name for a chatty Parrot dat can't fly?  Hmm..... does dat sound like someone we all know?

Happy Birthday to my Best Birthday Buddies (Angel Stuart &  Dui)!   We three sure had da BEST Birthday Bashes.

 Love, Licks, and Wags,
