Guess what Friday is!!!

So, this Friday is October 2, 2009. Yes, I'm awesome & can read the calendar. But, this Friday is special for our family for 2 BIG reasons.

First, October 2, 2009 is LiveSTRONG Day. I encourage all of you reading this blog to wear something YELLOW to commemorate the day. Long story short, LiveSTRONG Day used to fluctuate every year, but starting in 2009 it's always going to be October 2nd because that was the day Lance Armstrong was diagnosed with the testicular cancer that started his journey through chemo & beyond, inspiring us along the way.

Second, Ella bean will be 4 months old on October 2, 2009. I still don't get why some people describe how old their kids are in weeks and others by months (they never match up!) So....I keep track both ways! 4 big months old. Amazing. Her 4 month well visit isn't until 10/16 (oops! I waited too long to get the appointment) but we know she's gaining weight & soon will be putting holes through the feet of her sleepers with her long legs.

So, celebrate with us on 10/2. 1. Wear something yellow (even if it's bananas printed on your underwear - it still counts) and 2. Have a slice of cake (or maybe a cocktail) and toast our survival of 4 months with a baby.
