Kids babysitting other peoples kids

Darby crash got his first real job: babysitting a baby. And she's just about the cutest little thing. He played careful keepaway with her.

Because he's all grown up, he can hold the toy higher!!! But she didn't care. Playing with the big dogs makes her happy;

Darby showed her the best places to sniff, and they practiced smelling stuff together

They ran and tumbled and played with all the really good toys (which Darby was all too willing to share)

And when Darby, Andretti, Dee and Q were too pooped to run with her, she just ran by herself. Like a little maniac until she wore herself out and had to take a nap. Right where she ran out of energy under one of the trees. Darby hovered like a mom-dog making sure everything was good with the sleepy pup.

Puppies are like lithium batteries; all or nothing, no in between. :)

It was a fun afternoon for everyone, but I think the big dogs were just fine seeing the little kid off to her new home. Quiet, blissful quiet, once again.
