No waving 16 months

Hi, just wondered if any other people had a baby that wouldn't wave at 17 months? My baby claps, imitates other things I do, sticks out tongue etc but won't wave. Shakes head very occasionally for no but doesn't nod. Only says dada but babbles a lot.
Open hand points occasionally if sees a bird or something of interest but mainly if we are out the house only. Doesn't point to what he wants as such. Clapping only happened in the last month.
Should I be concerned?
