Ba, ba, ba, ba....


Kate must have heard the news that sitting on a stability ball is great for core strengthening...she's adapted the exercise for herself and repeats it all day long. She's taken to sitting and bouncing on a ball, while chanting "ba, ba, ba, ba" (I think it's her word for ball and balloon). It's quite the feat when she does this on the kitchen floor without anything to hold on to. Ryan and I wince, waiting for the crash when the ball rolls out from under her or she falls backwards but, surprisingly, this barely ever happens. She's also gotten good at using the ball as a launching pad to stand up and start walking. I guess there are some muscles in those rolly legs and tummy after all!
