Catch! Catch!

So last Saturday we were at the mall with my family when Hubby saw a machine in Old Navy where he could buy a bouncy ball for 25 cents. He figured why not and got Big Brother the ball. I laughed about how in a few years he would need to buy three because the girls would want one too. He informed me that nope they could get one and play with it together. I kind of nodded and laughed at the same time. Thinking for 25 cents they could each have their own.

But then while we were still in the mall Big Brother and Big Sister started playing with the ball together. He would throw it to her and she would throw it to him. Hubby taught her that the came was called "Catch! Catch!" They had a lot of fun playing and in truth they had way more fun than they would have if we felt the need to buy them each a ball.

Plus now whenever she sees the ball she will pick it up and throw it to you. Very loudly and very excitedly yelling "Catch! Catch!" It is the funniest thing. And so super duper cute!!! So, I guess Hubby is right they won't each need a ball - they can all play "Catch! Catch!" together. :)
