Will Ferrell's son Magnus: doesn't want a baby sibling; speaks Swedish

09/18/2006 at 03:28 PM ET

Will Ferrell was Megan Mullally‘s first guest on her new daytime talk show, The Megan Mullally Show.  In true fashion, he made his entrance in just underpants and socks, and later serenaded her with "The Wind Beneath My Wings."  Will spoke about his son Magnus‘ language skills and his reaction to his soon-to-be new sibling (Will and his wife Viveca Paulin announced in late July they are expecting their second baby in December).

Will said Magnus, 2 1/2, isn’t very excited about the new baby.  "I keep telling him, ‘Magnus, there’s a baby in mama’s belly. And he’s like, ‘No, papa."

He also said Magnus speaks more Swedish than English, because his wife Viveca speaks it to him.  To Will’s dismay, Magnus is not very interested in speaking English and has actually told him, in Swedish, "Papa, no more English" when Will attempts to speak to him!

That’s cute :) I don’t think he should worry about his son speaking more Swedish. I’m bilingual too and there was a time as a kid when my mom would speak Greek to me and I’d refuse to say a word in Greek. It lasted about a year then I started speaking Greek again.

That is so cute. My 2 1/2 year old didn’t really understand the concept of a new baby coming. But after she came he understands. He is jealous but he loves her so much. I love Will Ferrell he is soo funny. Congrats to them.

Mom Said It

"I had to make a decision that I could sleep with every night. I did feel responsible for the young girls who I probably confused and let down. I apologize for that. But I wasn't trying to glamorize teen pregnancy."
