In the office

Mid-November, Magnus is 4 months old

Magnus had a brief visit to my office the other day. He and his mama were visiting Asker, and he came to sleep a bit in my office while Muna ran some errands.
At first, he was just sleeping in his stroller in the hallway (there wasn't space to get him into my office). Everybody who walked past smiled and peeked in.

After 30 minutes I noticed increased kicking activity, and I came out into the hallway just in time to catch his wake-up call... (Lately he has started crying wildly when he wakes up - that is kind of new), trying to minimize the unusual sounds for the other office inhabitants.

I SMS'ed the mama that he was awake and that she had to come back and give him some food if I was going to get any more work done. For a while he sat on my lap while I was editing documents with one hand - he was really interested to see what was going on on the screen. Then I pushed some paper to the side and found space for him on his blanket on my desk, wedged in between a shelf and a speaker.

The first thing Magnus did was roll to his side so his head came outside the blanket and bumped into the speaker - it looked incredibly funny with him arced in a semicircle around the speaker in the cramped space. Magnus just looked confused. When I put him back in place again, he discovered my headsets. At first he tried to eat them, a rather funny sight, and then he appeared to put them on to listen to music !

A future IT-staffer has been discovered.
