What is the deal with toddlers and the overwhelming urge to go au naturale? When mine were little, I'd take their diapers off, and they were GONE! Running away, cackling like tiny little madmen the whole time.
Duct tape. No, I don't mean that as a joke.
Obviously make sure the tape is fully on the diaper, because you don't want the adhesive in skin contact. And when you put the duct tape on the diaper, make sure the ends are far enough around the sides to be not easily within reach. Um, unless you have TWO kids willing to help each other, in which case it only slows them down.
I am very glad mine have mostly outgrown that stage, because their room was frequently the target of overnight "Poopcasso" wall art.

My daughter skipped this phase, apparently.
For which I am eternally grateful.
It happens with all kids. It'll probably just hit her later in life.
No! That's a horrible thought!!!
Damn you.
I wasn't aware you were raising monkeys, Zan.
So far I've found that a one piece romper seems to dampen the urge for him a little bit.
Here's my boy with his head stuck in the cat tree this afternoon:
Monkeys indeed.[1]
Yeah, once the onesie stopped working, I started putting them on backwards, and that worked for me for a little while too. Again, would have lasted longer if not for the tag-team aspect of twins.
[1] can't totally fault them, as it seems to be in the genes, if you consider that time I got my head stuck in the Eiffel tower...

Blackmail material for when he gets married and has kids of his own, right?
Dire.
And then I remembered that I typed it up into a pretty little LibreOffice document. Today has been a little tense.
*Waits for teapot to whistle.*
I've already started collecting material. I am planning on doing the "show the baby pictures to the girlfriend" thing when he's in high school.
No, the trick is to save it for when he has kids of his own. They don't think it's adorable; they think it's a challenge to outdo.
Heh heh heh

I never got my head stuck in anything. I did pick up a snake and bring it home to mama, though, does that count for Stupid Kid Tricks?

Depends on what kind of snake, I suppose.
That's what you get when you raise kids in the country!
Ok. I've been hearing a definite scraping sound coming from the neighbor upstairs... and it sounds like they are digging away at the floor... I just hope the zombie apoxyclips hasn't started and they are on their way down here cuz their apt is filled with z-words.
I wish they would hush.
