Hair -- Hår

Just in case it wasn't clear from one of the recent blogs Magnus has finally got hair. It is very blond and thin but at least it is there eventhough it often looks like he is as bald as both Rikke and Matt were at the same age.

I tilfældet af at det ikke var så klart fra en af de sidste blogs så har Magnus endeligt fået hår. Det er meget fint og lyst og nogen gange ser det ud til at han stadig er skaldet. Han har dog mere hår end både Rikke og Matt havde på den samme alder.

In Mexico there is a great tradition of creating artwork. The photo was taken in Guadalajara city centre (of which Tlaquepaque is a suburb). It is very tempting to buy lots of the art but so far we have our spending spree curbed by the fact that the nicer stuff is expensive. Magnus enjoyed the more useful aspect of this artpiece and it is reflecting that he now will use any sittable space to sit on.

Mexico har en lang tradition for kunstværk. Billedet blev taget i selve Guadalajara by (hvor Tlaquepaque er en forstad). Det er fristende at købe en masse af deres kunst, men indtil vidre er fristelsen blevet holdt nede ved at det bedre kunst er noget dyrt. Magnus nyder den brugbare del af kunst stykkerne. Han er begyndt at sidde på alt der kan siddes på.

Our neighbour -- Vores nabo

Every day we have this lovely horse in the backyard. It works for our landlady's family. The day the picture was taken it was tied to our window. You can probably imagine the excitement Magnus showed when he saw it and most days he will point at the window whether the horse is there are not. The picture below is not related to the blog as such but we thought ou might appreciate one of him anyway.

Hver dag har vi denne søde hest i vores baggård. Den arbejder for vores værts familie. Da billedet blev taget var den bundet til vores vindue. I kan sikkert forestille jer hvor oppergassen Magnus blev da han så den og de fleste dage peger han på vinduet om hesten er der eller ej. Billedet nedefor relatere ikke til bloggen, men vi tænkte at i sikkert ville kunne li billedet af Magnus.

Hvor er Magnus II? -- Where is Magnus II?

I en tidligere blog har vi fortalt om hvordan Magnus kan li at gemme sig i sin hule. På videoen nedenfor har vi fået taget ham midt i hans leg. Videoen er også bevis på at han har hår!

Earlier we mentioned how Magnus loves to play hide and seek in his little hiding place. In the video below we managed to film him in the middle of his game. The video also has the evidence that he has got hair!

Regn i Tlaquepaque -- Rain in Tlaquepaque

The rain season has started in Mexico and as you can see from the video the street turned into a river. The temperture has dropped significantly and is more managable for us. Eventhough it is raining it is still warm and very different to the rainy weather we are used to in London.

Regn sæsonen er startet her i Mexico og som i kan se på videoen endte det med at gaden blev til en flod. Temperturen er faldet og er noget nemmere for os at holde ud. Selvom det regner er her stadig varmt og regnvejret er en verden til forskel for hvordan det er når det regner i London.

Lime og grapfrugt -- Lime and grapefruit

Magnus har altid været god til at spise forskellige ting. De sidste nye favoritter er lime og grapefrugt; ikke lige mad man forventer børn kan li. Magnus bliver meget spændt når han ser frugterne fremme. For et par dage siden havde han sneget sig en lime fra køleskabet uden at vi havde set det. Da vi opdagede hans gevindst var det meste af juicen suget ud af limen. Billedet blev taget i Puerto Rico så har ikke så meget at gøre med bloggen, men tænkte i måske kunne li det alligevel.

Magnus is a good eater and the latest favorites are lime and grapefruit! These fruits are not the first type of food you would imagine a child liking but Magnus gets very excited and impatient when he sees the foods out. A few days ago he managed to sneak out a lime from the fridge without us knowing. When we realised he had managed to suck out most of the juices. A very resourceful boy! The picture was taken in Puerto Rico so has nothing to do with the blog but we thought you might like it anyway.

Hvor er Magnus? -- Where is Magnus?

Vores nye lejlighed i Mexico er mindre end dem vi havde i Puerto Rico. Magnus elskede det at kunne gå fra rum til rum og udforske og det virkede til at han savnede dem frihed efter vi var ankommet i Tlaquepaque. Ret hurtig fandt han dog på noget nyt. Han fandt sig en hule og det er nu hans nye sted som han går til når han skal lege. Vi har også lavet en hule under trappen som bliver brugt meget. Han elsker at lege "Hvor er Magnus". Han sidder stille i sine huler, mens vi går og "leder" og synes det er mægtig sjovt. Som i kan se på billedet så er bamserne altid med i hulerne.

Our new flat in Mexico is not as big has the ones we had in Puerto Rico. Magnus loved to walk from room to room and explore. It seemed he missed this sense of independence after we arrived in Tlaquepaque but he adapted pretty soon. He found himself a hiding place and this is now his place he goes to when he wants to play. We have also concocted a space under the stairs which he likes. He loves to play "Where is Magnus". He will sit still in his hiding place while we "look" for him and thinks it is a lot of fun. As you can see from the picture the soft toys are always with him in the hiding places.
