butter thief...

saturday we were hanging out in the living room. all of a sudden, jordan asks us, "why does max have butter?" max ran into the living room holding a stick of butter and so began a new game. he ran away giggling and we chased him to get the butter back. we put it away and thought that was that. again max grabbed the butter and brought it into the living room.

drew thought he was going to teach max a lesson. so he unwrapped the end and let max take a bite. and to his surprise, max said, "i like it." (gross.) drew then tried to explain that butter was not a snack and put it back in the fridge.

after a few minutes, i thought to myself, it's WAY too quiet. so i suggested that drew go look for max. and where did he find him...under the dining room table munching on the stick of butter. (again, gross.)

drew put it away again and in his mind, solved the problem. he was so proud of himself. he came to explain to me what he'd come up with. he took one of the cabinet safety locks and put it around the fridge handle and the freezer handle. (picture this everybody...) now, next time max would try to open the fridge to try to find the butter...he'd open the freezer door too! :) problem solved!
