this is what we did this weekend

By "we" I of course mean "Jonathan." I mostly just supervised the munchkin.

It's not quite finished, but it should be by either late tonight or tomorrow afternoon. All that's left is getting the tunnel and slide on.

We also watched Michael Phelps win his 7th gold medal which was awesome. Did you all see it? AMAZING!

I've now lost 7 pounds in only a week and a half of dieting and I fear that Monday I will be paying for a little of the extra calorie consuming that I've done this weekend. That's OK though. I fully expect it to take 5 or 6 months for me to get to my goal weight and I'm just happy to be doing something about it.

Jules and I went to the doctor Friday afternoon because I suspected she had a UTI. She was urinating so frequently that we would hardly get settled back in the family room before she was running back to the bathroom announcing, "I have to potty again!" She also had three accidents Friday morning which hasn't happened in months and she had a tiny bit of blood in her urine. The highest her temp got was 99.5, but I still thought it would be better to get her checked out since it was Friday and all.

At the doctor's office they worked us in in between appointments and immediately we had to try to give a urine sample. That went really well, actually. The full lab work won't be in until next week, but they did prescribe an antibiotic because it did appear to be a beginning urinary tract infection. The good part is that Julianna no longer had any symptoms after her first dose of meds. Now hopefully if I have lunch at Chick-fil-a again in the near future I won't be running back and forth to the bathroom every five seconds.

Hope you're having a good weekend!
