Victoria put a new sock buddy on Folger today... much to his displeasure... didn't help any that we had purchased the silliest easter socks we could find...

Its the Easter Birdie or Folger Bunny :)

We found the socks at Joanns, Victoria cuts them down to fit him. She also picked out an adorable pink and purple argyle plaid, so stay tuned for how angry that pattern makes him :)

The good news, he is so obsessed with getting the sock off, he does not touch a feather or his skin....

Whatever works! And he looks so stylish, Victoria does a great job with those:) Can't wait to see the plaid one too.

I'll try to video tape the next time one goes one... have to setup the camera, cause it usually takes both of us, but you'll be hearing me say... if his heads gets free, I'm outta here, you're on your own, he's gonna bite your butt....

give us 10 minutes!!! We were using ankle socks, but this latest one was with a tall sock only because that is what the cute easter designs were in.

okay, obviously we're not Hollywood directors... or videographers, so feel free to laugh at our attempt of an instructional video!!! Its pretty simple, hopefully you get the idea, but if you need more help or better instruction, send me a PM and I can catch up with you facebook or chat to help walk you thru. Its really just cutting off the toe end or wherever to get the sock the length from neck to right below where wings cross on the back. We tried using Ivory as a model, but you would have thought we were brutalizing her and not just lying a sock down her back!! After getting the length cut, just cut slits into each side so you can pull the wings and legs thru. You want the legs thru too so it stays put top and belly.

and excuse Tor's messy table next to her side of the sofa... basket of birdie treats, bottles of her beloved olive oil from Spain (she puts it on salad and ice cream - yep you read it here first, orange infused olive oil on chocolate ice cream)...

That is the best video I have seen in forever! I really loved the background music as well:)
I think that you both deserve an Oscar for that:)
Looking forward to tomorrow's video as well, but if you are putting it on Folger, you may have to rate it PG13 for violence:)
