What I Love About Sundays: Long Weekend Edition

Hiya ladies! I hope you all are enjoying your long weekends, which have hopefully been filled with many a grilled burger and lawn chair. We hosted a small BBQ for TH's family on Saturday, and we told SIL, BIL, the aunt, and the uncle about Baby. It went over surprisingly well (SIL and BIL are not known for their well-placed comments), though I still feel the worst is yet to come. TH did the honors, but he didn't quite announce the IVF factor. I suspect SIL is going to have a pile of questions for him.I also talked to one of my aunts yesterday, and it turns out a family member with whom I did NOT share our infertility woes with asked my aunt if she knew how our last treatment went. *insert stern face here* I suspect I know who the loud mouthed culprit is (someone I didn't tell but I think knew from another source). If I weren't pregnant and typing this out, I'd be reeling. I will admit, I'm pretty irritated, but I'm trying to just let it go. If the whole family knows, they are actually doing a good job by knowing not to ask us about it. Small blessing?
Let's get on to the good stuff. What's going to round out your holiday weekend, the unofficial start to summer, and help you glide into a short (but still annoying) work week?

1. Cheeseburgers fresh from the grill. Is there any better bbq food? I'm not so sure. I had to pass on my favorite Romanian sausages (unheard of), but the burgers TH cooked up were fantastic. I'm pretty glad we're headed to another bbq today, hamburger meat in tow. (((beef)))

2. 8 weeks and an u/s tomorrow. I think we might actually be released to an OB tomorrow. Kind of shocking, really effing awesome.
3. MIL and FIL. Even if TH and I are having a mild battle about him going over there frequently, they are simply great. We came home from Mexico to a clean kitchen (she wiped down the inside of the dish washer!) and a closet full of washed and ironed TH dress shirts. She feeds the kittehs while we're gone, and she sometimes can't help herself. I learned early, with some help from my mom, that if she wants to do stuff in our house, LET HER. And thus, I rejoiced at the ironed shirts!
4. Mamina (Romanian grandmas). TH told them this week, and their response was the sweetest yet. MIL showed up to the bbq yesterday armed with 3 rounds of kisses from Romania. ♥

5. The promise of a girls' weekend. The SMT and I seem to be going rogue this coming weekend. I hope everything works out b/c I can't wait!
6. Gorgeous weather. I don't dig being hot right now, but I prefer this to rain any day (unless it's a thunderstorm and I'm inside!) Sunshine just fits my mood these days.7. These shoes in cream. I think they are going to be great with pants for work this summer. We had an impromptu outlet trip (any ideas on stores to get TH some new dress pants? Banana and Brooks Brothers were a definite bust.), and these shoes will look super cute with a few summer cardigans I bought.
8. Does that picture need any explanation? *le sigh* Maybe more to come, if you're good. ;)
