Really? Ok, here we go!

Last night as I was getting Lucy ready for bed, I grabbed (as is my habit) a diaper and started to put it on her.

And Lucy said "No" and swung her legs away from me.

I'm thinking, no? What do you mean, no?

So I said, "No diaper?"

And she says "Ee" (That's yes in Lucy-speak).

I asked her if she wanted to wear underpants like Emily and she said yes. So I explained that she can't do that until she goes in the potty, does she want to use the potty? Yes, came the reply.

Um, OK.

So we started really trying to put her on the potty today.

I'm not expecting that we will have any kind of potty training miracles here, but if she wants to try, then I am all for it. So far, she hasn't had any success, but that doesn't mean we can't still try.

I am having a hard time believing that Lucy is actually ready to start training, but she desperately wants to be like her sister and I think that is her motivation. And if we get out of diapers soon? All the better.
