Alexa learned to clap!


Alexa mastered clapping today. Granny had been doing patty cake with her quite a bit, then after her 9 month checkup, when the dr asked if she is clapping yet, I realized, hey I haven't been doing this with her! It only took a couple of days for her to get the hang of it.

It was cute, the first day, she was trying to do it, but she wasn't turning her hands over, so she was hitting one hand on top of the other. It was so much fun to watch her practice!

Then the next day, she starting rolling her hands like we do during the song "roll 'em up, roll 'em up" Then, all of a sudden it just clicked, she started clapping her hands together!

Now, everytime she is clapping her hands and JoElle sees her doing it, JoElle encourages her and tells her "Yes Alexa, you are doing patty cake!" It is adorable! Her big sis is such a great encourager!

Also, she has become quite a thumb and finger sucker lately with her molars coming in....
