Over the past two weeks Mommy has been performing clapping songs for Austen — such as Grandma Judi’s favorite “If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands …” and “Pease Porridge hot, Pease Porridge cold …” Today Austen did some clapping of her own at Gymboree. She doesn’t clap on demand or when the song calls for it but whenever the spirit moves her, usually after everyone else stops clapping.
Also, Austen has started attempting to wave “Hi!” Mommy and Daddy will try to capture video but Uncle Rin can confirm Austen’s new clapping skill.
