odin has never been overly enthusiastic about imitating people, which we can sometimes cause us some concern, depending on how neurotic we’re being about trying to be observant about detecting any possible developmental delays sooner rather than later.
and while he may never decide that imitation for imitation’s sake is an fun way to pass the time, he’s at least temporarily decided that he’ll humour us by copying our clapping!
interestingly, he still seems to have a solid mix of skills that one might look for in both actual and age adjusted terms. clapping is often seen around 10 months which seems just about right since he just celebrated his 10 month “adjusted” birthday a few days ago.
usually we’re lucky to get just a few claps before he gets distracted and remembers that there are far more fun things to be doing 🙂
