Vestibular stimulation

Is this therapy or just plain fun?? Holly, our physical therapist, decided to work on some vestibular stimulation with Austin. Vestibular stim helps with visual tracking and balance. We all know how much Austin loves to swing but this was totally different.
Daddy and Holly laid Austin on a blanket and each took a side and lifted him up. They were swinging him back and forth in lots of directions inside the blanket. Austin had a BLAST!! He was laughing and giggling so loudly. His face turned bright red from laughing. I think Cady was jealous. I don't know whether she wanted to be in the blanket swinging around with Austin, or holding the blanket and swinging him around.... scary thought!!!
