So Sunday was the day I realized I really need to get Rubby to break his "carefree, blowin' in the wind, runnin' nekked" attitude. I went to get him from his Sunday School class, he is a big bad Sunbeam now. When I walked around the corner to his class room, his door was open and there was Rub, shirtless and grinning from ear to ear! I quickly shut the door and grabbed up his shirt and re-dressed him.
Me- "Rub, why is your shirt off? We are at church, we don't undress at church! You need to keep your clothes on!"
Rub- "I was fwetty and itchy!"
Me- " So was I but my clothes are still on. We can't just undress when we are sweaty and itchy Rub."
Rub- " I can undwess at home?"
Me- "When we get home you can put on some more comfy clothes but you cannot be nekked!"
When we get home, JC strips to his underwear and lays on the couch! And I wonder where the boy gets it!
Yesterday, a friend of the family comes over to drop Buzz off after a play date. Rub runs out to say hi.
Friends 5 y/o- "Rubs in his underwear!"
Me-"Good we've made progress! That's more than he was in five minutes ago!"
On a bike ride home from the park a couple weeks ago (Rub and Dub ride in a bike trailer) I hit a bump and Rub spills a drop (literally only a drop) of water on his shirt.
Rub-"You may me pill it! I all wet!"
Me- "You are fine."
Rub-" I nee take it off, It all wet!"
Me-"DO NOT TAKE OFF YOUR SHIRT!"
Not a minute later I glance back just in time to see his shirt flying out of the bike trailer! He stripped it off while wearing a five point seatbelt harnass and a helmet, and chucked it out on the sidewalk!
What am I going to do with this boy????? Any suggestions, aside from droppping him at a nudest colony????

Those men of ours have way too much influence on our kids! It amazes me how easy it is for our kids to pick up on the habbits you don't want them to, and then the ones you want them to pick up they won't even try. Oh well, I'm sure glad we have good hubby's that wont teach our kids too many bad habits.
all i can say is good luck! what is it with guys...around our house it's the tooting that gets bad.

It's not just confined to boys. My eldest goes from zero to naked in 3.4 seconds. We finally said she had to wear underwear around the house, and luckily she won't disrobe outside the house anymore.
For her, it's because she is CONSTANTLY hot. Dead of winter, she sleeps in the buff. I used to zip her into her pajamas backwards as a toddler, and now I realize she was taking them off because I was overheating her. Nice.
