We recently started potty training Lucía. On Monday, February 27th she got up, we threw away her diapers and said bye bye to them for good. She was pretty excited about it as we had spent the previous few days talking about it. After five minutes in her new big girl underwear, she had her first accident. That's when we thought, "Did we really just throw away all her diapers?" But after practicing every hour, by the end of the day she was used to it. Since then, the potty train has had a few accidents but it hasn't derailed.

Last night we finally made her a chart so she could track her progress. Before we were just using chocolate chips for pee pee and peanut butter cups for poo poo. Hopefully this will be a little healthier and have a longer lasting impact as it's on the wall across from the toilet when she's going.

At night she doesn't want the light on in the bathroom. Before when she would go poop in her diapers she would always hide. Maybe the darkness makes it a little more comfortable for her as she makes the transition to the toilet.

She was able to put her first sticker on it 15 minutes after we put the chart up. She's already got a few more so we're well on our way.

It's still a little strange to see her in underwear but the money we're saving from buying diapers makes it easier to accept that she's growing up.
