Clapping

I’ve been so worried about this one, I didn’t know it was a milestone until the milestone came up around 8-9 months. We aren’t super expressive people so I didn’t know I should be modelling this, I guess it might also be a first time mom thing as we weren’t shaking our heads either and surprise surprise that didn’t happen either.

Well since I found out we’ve been clapping at every opportunity and singing lots of clapping songs. Well tonight right before bed he clapped for the first time and I honest to god cried I was so relieved and happy. This felt like a really big win for us.
