pearllyn Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 Hay Folks! Alfies Lego came yesterday, and I'm very happy to report it seems to be a success - she was driving us nuts with her pen pinching! I was a little concerned she wouldn't be interested in the Lego or maybe scared of it, but as soon as she saw me put it on the desk with a "Do Not Touch" sign in front of it, that was it! She was straight in as soon as my back was turned. Here are some pics, and I'm working on uploading the video! She still has the attention span of a paperclip though, and something else soon caught her eye! Never mind, the Lego keeps her occupied for a good two and a half minutes at a time! Hope you and yours are all well. Lyn & Alfie xx
JillyBeanz Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 Very nice pictures Lyn - is it an aeroplane or a racing car chassis! I can just see you now, after Alfie's gone to bed, in the middle of the living room carpet with your lego. For Alfie my eye!! :laugh: AND you've only posted the pocket picture because you've got a lovely flat bum!!
pearllyn Posted October 13, 2009 Author Posted October 13, 2009 Haha is was a plane - and I sit on the mat in front of the fire!! AND I'm afraid the pocket picture is David, a)I would NEVER take a picture of my own bum, and b) mine absolutely fills my jeans!! :laugh: x
judygram Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 Yes Legos can be great fun for greys and I love that last pic, you can't hide anything from Alfie it seems, thanks for sharing the pics with us Lyn.
pearllyn Posted October 13, 2009 Author Posted October 13, 2009 Lol, no Judy, if you try to hide stuff from her, it makes it all the more irresistable! x<br><br>Post edited by: pearllyn, at: 2009/10/13 15:03
pearllyn Posted October 13, 2009 Author Posted October 13, 2009 Got the video uploaded at last - lost connection 3 times while it was downloading! It's only 30 seconds! xx
judygram Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 That was very cute Lyn of Alfie going after that lego, she was determined that toy was not going to get the better of her, thanks for sharing that with us.
danmcq Posted October 13, 2009 Posted October 13, 2009 Love all the photos of Alfie having fun!! He is a beautiful Grey, even if he is mischievous. :-) Thanks for sharing them.
pearllyn Posted October 13, 2009 Author Posted October 13, 2009 Thanks Judy, and you're welcome - I like to share! I think that video is quite amusing! And thanks also, Dan, I think so too, although mischievous is an understatement at the minute!
jessdecutie18 Posted October 14, 2009 Posted October 14, 2009 Nice pictures I'll have to see if my little nieces and nephew have any legos to spare so I can try them with Yoshi
JillyBeanz Posted October 14, 2009 Posted October 14, 2009 Harvey would NEVER fly to the floor (even for a tub of palm nuts). Alfie didn't care did she - straight down there after her lego. Great video too Lyn x
Eckobird Posted October 14, 2009 Posted October 14, 2009 Those are great pictures and video of Alfie playing with her new legos! Looks like fun, I might have to try those with Ecko. But like you said it will probably only keep him occupied for about 2 minutes LOL! Thanks for sharing with us and karma to you!
pearllyn Posted October 14, 2009 Author Posted October 14, 2009 No, it doesn't bother her at all - she's so bold, she'll even go down to try and wrestle a yoghurt pot off Megan or Tia! Lucky I have two good dogs to go with my far too pushy parrot!! Thanks for looking at t vid! x
pearllyn Posted October 14, 2009 Author Posted October 14, 2009 Thanks Caitlin and Jess, They're def worth a try, and remember, it is 2 and a half minutes at a TIME! At maybe 6 or 8 times a day, that's 15 - 20 minutes of peaceful playtime EVERY day!! x
Luvparrots Posted October 14, 2009 Posted October 14, 2009 Great video and his Lego attack!!! Loved it!
pearllyn Posted October 15, 2009 Author Posted October 15, 2009 Oh she really does Jan! Although they aren't distracting her from the pens any more! Luvparrots, she will attack all her toys with the same.....enthusiasm! x
katana600 Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 Lyn your photos and video really capture Alfie's essence. What a fun-loving energetic character she is. We still have some boxes of our kids toys I was saving for grandchildren... but they are already in Juno's toy cupboard. LOL... We still have a bit of a wait for the next generation anyway.
pearllyn Posted October 15, 2009 Author Posted October 15, 2009 Lol Katana, I'll bet Juno's toy cupboard is bursting! Alfie has a toy box - we may need to upgrade! x
