The Other Child

It's hard to forget Miss Nikki Dee for too long. For example: when I was trying to take the birthday photos, which I posted yesterday, Nikki Dee was making sure to stay involved in the family dynamics. She sure hates to miss out and sure is bold about inserting herself into situations.



She's a pretty busy girl, but she does take some time to visit with Zachary every now and then..

Perhaps you can't tell, but we takes lots of pictures. It's often a bit of a circus act though because she's keen to look at the results almost before we've taken the picture, and she'll chase you around until you let her look.





We also spent some time visiting and baby sitting today. Zach is somewhat remarkable sleeper, and even Miss Nikki Dee deigned to nap. But just for a while, for there were blocks to play with ...



... and newspapers to read. Below, I was trying to find something to interest her, so I pointed out a Blackberry, just like her daddy has. She knew enough to call it a phone ... which it is. Clever girl.

The 'climbing on the chair' is a wonderful attitude to have captured...

It's rather interesting raising kids in a digital camera era - they only know of cameras that instantly show you the pictures. Even in some pretty remote parts of Africa, people have come to assume that you will show them the picture when you're done taking it.

Oh--she is showing all the signs of being a first-born. Take charge, inquisitive, not to be left out.
