My Babies are Strippers
by Mama Pig 
Yes, you read that right. Caleb and Emily have become strippers. I'm not sure when it happened, but I have noticed it these last few days.Caleb refuses to wear anything but his undies around the house. I put clothes on him to leave and the moment we hit the inside of the house, off they go. He says he feels better in his undies. Oh well, nobody ever visits and we live in the country. Carry on undie boy.
Emily has been a bit more sneaky about her desire to strip. She absolutely hates socks so I don't even bother to put them on her adorable little feet anymore. Within two minutes of them being on they are off and forever lost. Okay, I'm not a fan of anything on my feet so I understand where she gets that from. However, now she seems to not desire to wear a shirt anymore either.
The other day I was almost positive that not only had I dressed her, but that I had indeed placed a shirt on her little body. Five minutes out of the room and I come back to a topless toddler. At first I thought Caleb had decided she needed to go free, but he was in the back room and had not gone near her. I was slightly perplexed. Shirt is placed back on and I head to the kitchen to watch undetected.
Sure enough, she looks around to see if I am nearby and then slowly starts to work her arms out of the shirt. Within thirty seconds it is gone and she is laughing. At least she hadn't figured out to take her pants off. Oops...she had.
One minute after the shirt came off there went the pants and the diaper. I was staring at a naked baby sitting on my couch watching "Blue's Clues". Short of duct tape, I am unsure how to keep her stripping to a minimum.
I have learned that she can't get her blue jeans off, so she spends most days in those now. Topless of course, because I only have one bodysuit for her and I can't wash it fast enough to keep it on her. The only thing keeping her shirt on is those snaps.
So, I am off to chase a naked baby around and try and convince Caleb that the people at Wal-Mart really don't want to see his Diego undies. I guess this would make me one of those "rednecks" Jeff Foxworthy always jokes about. You might be a redneck if your toddler can work the pole better than a Playboy bunny.
Were you a "stripper" as a child? What about your children?

haha, i don't think i was a stripper baby. but my little brothers do that all the time, usually diaperless too. we usually have to get them in body suits, because he can't work with zippers yet. with pants, sometimes we have to have a belt or string to make them stay on :P
my brother used to like putting his clean nappies on his head when he was a baby...lol
all his clothes are put on backwards (esp the ones with buttons and zip) so he can't take them off.
One of my friend's daughter's used to strip out of her bathing suit when she was outside in her kiddie pool. Then she would run around the yard naked, in full view of everyone driving by and the neighbors
at least your kiddos stay inside!
My 6 year old son decided during the summer to to naked. He first decided he wanted to sleep naked. No problem, I don't care. Then he would come downstairs in the morning and it would take a couple of hours to get him to get dressed. He will not go naked in front of those who are not family, and as soon as the weather got colder, he started keeping his clothes on. So I figured as long as he is modest in front of nonfamily, I'm not going to worry about it. He is the last of 5 children and all of his sibs are much older (18 and up) so he often it is just mom, dad and him anyway.
That's hilarious! At least no one comes by...
My daughter will only use the potty if she is naked from the waist down so she runs around naked most of the time. Now that it's a bit warmer outside, I'm letting her go play outside with just underpants on because someone told me to let her sit in her wet undies for awhile and I don't want wet undies in my house! People just have to deal with naked baby for awhile.
Now, my son is 4 and still not potty-trained due to some physical delays we're working on it now and he has the same issue. Won't pee if he's naked waist down but will pee if he's got a diaper or undies on so he also goes around naked most of the time... I can understand people being offended by his naked-ness. He's lost the baby-cute butt.
My two kids definitely went through a naked phase. Even in winter, they'd be running around the house naked. I had to invest in some snapping onesies so that they'd at least keep their diapers on, although now that I think of it, the naked phase did help with potty training.
oh my gosh.. thanks! I am now having visions of how my 16 month old is going to be this summer... He already hates having anything on his feet (I am the same way, so he must have learned it from me) and after naps he likes to play in his crib until he is fully awake.. and fully undressed. I am so glad he has not figured out his diaper yet!
I was a stripper baby. My parents used to safety pin my clothes to my diaper...and that didn't stop me, either! :)
@Daisy86162@xanga - Warm??? Where do you live?
@sugartomyhoney@xanga - Orlando, FL.. It's supposed to get to 82 degrees today. Friday we'll be down in the 50's but mid 70's is pretty common.
@Daisy86162@xanga - I'm jealous! It is in the low 30's here with snow and ice on the ground (Mid Atlantic state)
i was totally a nudist as a child... up until i was about ... 9? bahahaaha. i learned that clothes were necessary items for the "real world", but i'm still a nudist at heart & strip down all the time in the privacy of my own home.
My son is still not wanting to wear anything but his underwear, he will of course keep clothes on when we are not home, but when we get home he strips down. But i was the same way as a kid, my mom tells me all the time that she couldnt keep clothes on me not even when we were leaving the house lol.
I wasn't one to strip when I was young but I'd get out of the tub after my bath each night and dance infront of the fire naked. My Dad freaked and told my mom to make me stop. He worried that it would affect me when i was older so my nakey days were short lived.
My cousins were the same way when they were younger. Â And both me and my sister, too! I once ran to the corner of my street when I was younger and mooned the on-coming traffic just so I could be a little more naked! ...Must run in my family. :)
My sister was the exact same way. I remember one time when I was younger she disappeared in the back yard and I went looking for her and all you see is a trail of clothes...(my backyard was huge, at least an acre and a half or so)... and then at the end of the trail is my sister naked next to the fence which on the other side was our neighbor's son who happens to be naked as well. (the many grammatical errors in that statement O_x oh boy) It was so funny. She also decided to do a strip show for some family friends one time too. Oh the stories I could tell.
I have found my kids stripped outside at variuos ages! Esp. if they are playing with water and/or sand. The youngest of my 3 oldest is now 5, and we have a 7 week old. so who knows what I am in for? I would insist on a diaper or undies, until Daddy was on the way home from work, then it was in the house and shower.. with clothes following! Have Fun.. They are only little once.
btw. the older ones have outgrown it now. occaisionally they will dash through the house inundies.. but nothing major..
My cousin was a major stripper. I swear the girl was never wearing clothes. I always thought it was strange. 'Little me' couldn't picture being naked in front of anyone, unlike my cousin. Her mom cut hair from their home, and she'd run free. She grew out of it eventually, and actually, now that were older, I'd say she's way more shy about that stuff than I am.
My most fondest memory is of my son at one years old, stripping and running around in the back yard.
Well i was one too.Sorta.I would only be comfortable in a tiny shirt with my underwear on.and it wasnt till i was like 8 that i actually grew out of it.of course in school i didnt do such things as take off my clothes.lol thank god.
I think all kids like to strip. Your daughter may be doing it because she sees that big brother gets to do it. My son like being only in his diaper. It was fine but now he is almost 11 and I have to tell him that he can't just walk around in undies at night. Of course my hubby does that so it makes it harder to enforce. I pray that one day I have a girl so that everyone will have to wear their pants like I do. :)
i wasnt like that as a toddler, but once i got to school i was. as soon as i'd get off the bus and hit the front door, my clothes would come off and i'd do my homework in my underoos and training bra until someone came home. i had to wear uniforms to school, though, which were extremely uncomfortable.
i do teach dance to little kids and stripping seems to be a common thing among the 3 and 4 year olds. i usually tell them its not nice to take your clothes off in front of strangers, then convince them that everyone wants to see them in their cute outfits. the cute outfit part usually works better. lol
My mother had me in a lot of dresses and I would always lift my dress up for people to see my belly. Lol. I don't know about stripping.
My son has come to that stage as well. He normally keeps his shirt on, but pants and diapers, those especially if they are wet or dirty, are off. He'll keep underwear on though, even if they are wet. I won't notice he has peed himself until I pick him up or I step in a wet spot. Oh the joys of potty training. Lol.
Connor was good about keeping clothes on when he was little till you told him it was bath time. He would strip down in front of everyone. I would yell "NAKED BABY!!!!!" and see him run down the hallway laughing with his tiny butt cheeks bouncing.
He's 7 and still giggles when I tell him he's being a naked baby after I get him out of the tub.
i was a stripper, from what my grandma tells me my mom was a stripper, and my son and daughter are strippers...... yep... we're just a stripping family, LOL
