Rearranging our furniture, and our lives

Trev and I decided to get a new piece of furniture. But this required a whole new arrangement of the downstairs. Here is trevor enjoying the new arrangement, and the new addition.

Here is a close up of the new furniture. As you can probably tell, it's built to house some new additions to our household.

So, the reason we need this new addition was that Trev and I found some new additions to our little house. I've wanted birds ever since before I went to volunteer at the Raptor Center. Trevor agreed. So we did some research and we think we've found two. The first:

The second is below. We don't know if they are males or females. The typical cockatiel coloring these birds do NOT have. The top is a pearl, the bottom a pied. We're trying very hard NOT to get a male and a female as we prefer to not have babies appear suddenly. We are about 90% certain that we'll come home with these two birds next week. There are 5 options, so we're going to do one more gut check w/ these two.

Why two? Because cockatiels are even more a flock bird than other parrots, it's mean to have one if you don't have many hours to spend with it, so since we are active it's better if they have a playmate.

So, the above have no names yet and have no idea if they are even male or female. We might not even bring these exact two home, but next week we will have 2 birds to share our house with us.
