Olivia loves to go up onto her tip toes and reach for things on the kitchen counter. The other day I had my back turned while I was cooking dinner and she had reached up and grabbed the big tub of soft butter and ran off with it into the living room without my knowing. Very quietly I might add. I am always careful with things like knives, full glasses of water, etc. I am sure to keep them far away from the edge. I thought I would be safe with a 3lb tub of butter. I was wrong. Next thing I know, she is smearing big globs of butter onto the wall and in her hair. I think she was trying to get it off her hands after grabbing handfuls of it.
She can be a handful let me tell you. She only does things when she knows I am not paying 100% attention to her. Otherwise she is as good as gold. She also loves to get into my and Ben's stuff and play with it. I honestly don't mind this for the most part, as long as she doesn't make huge messes with it. Just this morning, I walked into our room and she was trying to put on Ben's deodorant she had taken out of his drawer. It was pretty adorable. Now she smells like a man. Ha ha.
Here is a video of her the other day. I was on the phone arranging meals for some people in our ward and she very quietly climbed into my basket of things and started playing. I thought it was really cute and quite harmless, and so I used the iPhone to catch a quick video.
