Relating to other babies

Early November, Magnus is 3.5 months old

Magnus enjoys to be with other babies. We've seen it several times that he shows a very high interest in relating to the others around him. Just like at the nurse station when he's around the other babies in our group - he is just grinning and grinning and looking at all the others.

When we first brought Magnus to visit Astrid & Einar Andreas, Anne-Klara, Ole Anders & Åse Ragnhild with Magnus, it was interesting to observe how eager his kids were to relate to Magnus. I was particularly nervous when the youngest one, Åse Raghnild, wanted to be with Magnus, touching him, shaking his hand, pulling on his finger, checking out his ear, but Magnus was just okay with all this.

When we were out strolling, the little 2-year-old insisted on pushing the stroller, we were hardly allowed to help. I think little Magnus brought out the mothers instinct in this little girl!


One day we went to visit Unn Gøril & Frode, which was great. Also little Solveig seemed ecstatic at having visitors, she really knew how to grin!

When we arrived, Magnus and Solveig greeted each other in the hallway, and when we got in, they both got to lie down on a big mat together.





Big sister Astrid wanted to participate in the party, but probably she was already too old for this baby-meet and quickly joined the grown-ups at the coffee table instead.
