Yay!!!

Recently, any time that we clap our hands and exclaim, "Yay!", Garrett will get excited and start flapping his arms up/down (his way of showing his excitement). We will often take his hands and clap them together for him, which he also loves. Yesterday, Garrett (our little genius) was sitting on the floor while I was putting groceries away. I heard a new sound and looked up to see that he was clapping his hands together all on his own! I about tripped over a sack of groceries when I ran for the camcorder to record this new skill!
(Doesn't he look like a little Easter Egg in this outfit? Ha! Also - you can just barely see that he's starting to get curly hair around the back of his head! Too cute!)


We also found out yesterday that Garrett will be moving up to the Infant 2 classroom starting Monday, April 5. Not really sure if we are ready for this or not...it means that our little cowboy is growing up! The new classroom will give Garrett the opportunity to interact more with babies that are just a bit older than him. He's currently the oldest in his room, and most of the Infant 1 babies are only a few months old. They also do more activities and have a more structured curriculum (well, as structured as they can be for babies!). All of the babies in the Infant 2 room are crawling and/or learning to walk...so I'm sure he'll pick up on that very quickly. Time to shop for a baby gate! He's learning/growing so fast! Where did the past 7 1/2 months go???
