Plus, It's International Women's Day

I’m a c-section girl now, so if everything goes according to plan I should get to pick my baby’s birthday. Thursday is my doctor’s day off, but he usually comes in in the morning anyway, so he said I could pick any day of the week. His only suggestion was that it be a few days before my due date.

My due date is March 9th, and I was really hoping for a March 8th baby. March 8th is cool because, first of all, it’s my Uncle Barry’s birthday and he’s one of the nicest men on the planet. But more importantly, check out what my kids’ birthdays would be:

Liam: 08-31-05
Eliza: 03-18-09
Baby: 03-08-12

Five out of six of the same birthday digits! Crazy, right? I think it’s totally worth ignoring the "few days early" advice and making my doctor come in on his day off.

Mike wants me to go a week over due so she will be a leap year baby. That may be too early but only by like 9 days. I say go for what day you want!!

Love it! (Nothing better than a F.D. Uncle Barry birthday!)

Wait, why do you have to have a c-section?!? Did you have one with Eliza? What is going on? Oh, and I totally think you should do March 8 for the birthday digits. I was so excited when Maggie was born on the 23rd, because our birthday's were like this:

Ben: 6/27
Kat: 5/25
Mag: 4/23

Obviously our next baby would need to be 3/21, and then 2/19. But Cash messed it up big time by coming in December. Little Brat.
