New house settling?

I just had a new house built and I now see several small cracks occuring in the brick and the molding is separating in several places. My builder says that it is normal for the molding to separate because of the wood drying. In the bathroom the tile is cracking and the builder says it's just because it was laid wrong and he will fix it, but this crack is "walking" across the length of the bathroom. We have had a very rainy time before which it was very dry.....I don't know if the back and forth weather have anything to it, but it could . Any information is appreciated.
