Makenna's attempt at clapping

This weekend was a fun one for little Makenna. We took her to the mall so she could meet Santa Claus. As expected, she didn't have any problem with him, and was able to sit on his lap without any issues. I think she was into his beard because she just kept on staring at him, trying to figure him out. Santa thought he could get her to laugh and smile by bouncing her on his knee, but I think that scared her a bit. She started to whine a little, but didn't cry much. Its ok though, because now we're hoping she won't be afraid when she sees Santa again. It turned out for the best.

We've been working on teaching Makenna how to clap her hands, and this short video clip shows what she's learned. Its not a full on clap, but you'll be able to see that she knows what we're asking of her. Its kind of like her army crawl, not quite a crawl but it gets her where she wants to go. With her clapping, she's only going through the motions, no clapping sound just yet. Won't be long though, since this girl seems to be a really quick learner!

On a side note, we'll be finding out the sex of Baby Coconut this Wednesday afternoon. Can't wait!!
