Yes. Doitbyoulf. The nanny is not your damn servant.
Hi, Fat Troll! We were wondering when you’d show up! Still no life, PP?

Do you pay her extra for all this unnecessary work because you are too lazy,?
WTAF - it's no extra work to reprint a book that has already been created in Shutterfly, and the family is going to pay for it themselves.

I think Shutterfly allows her to share the project with you and then you could print your own copies.

Nanny here. I would take your request as a compliment and happily make copies.

I think it's okay to ask, it's probably already saved on the shutterfly account (or whatever service she used) just make sure you make it clear you will pay for it.
