If you haven't figured it out by now, February has an extra day this year. That's right, February 29th. The only day that appears every four years.
As some of you may already know, it is also my birthday.
So I would like to dedicate this post to all the other Leap Year babies and let me be one of the first few to say happy birthday! I also found some delicious freebies for everyone else.
Freebies:
1) There is Free pancakes at Ihop on Feb 28th (This is actually to raise money for the Children's Miracle Network, but it's still a give away!)
2) Chik-Fil-A is giving away Chick-n-Minis on Feb 29th before 10:30 am.
3) Subway is giving away free cookies with any purchase on Feb 29th.
There were more freebies back in 2008, but I guess everyone got tired of Leap Year coming out of nowhere. Either way, I am excited to be able to celebrate my birthday on the actual day I was born.
Now For an AWESOME birthday video (this goes out to all my leap year babies)
It's Kermit the frog! and frogs are the leap year mascot.
So how about my readers, do you know any Leap Year babies or are you one yourself?

So, let me get this straight: I could potentially have breakfast, a snack and a dessert this week? AWESOME. :D
ReplyDeleteAs to answer your question: the Leap Year baby that I know of is you. lol
-Barb ^.^
Well Happy almost birthday! :-) I think i may have to hit up these leap year freebies. Never knew they did that.
ReplyDeletep.s. you are the only leap year baby i know so i have to ask this question..
When its not leap year, what day do you celebrate your birthday? Ive always wondered.
Barb: Isn't it? I think free food is awesome ^^ LOL of course :p
ReplyDeleteKayleigh: Yep they do! They had more in 2008...Haha yay for being the first Leap year baby known :D
When it's not my actual birthday, I celebrate it on feb 28th and March 1st. I call it part one and part two of my birthday...Since everyone always seems so confused as to when to wish me a happy birthday...Even facebook gets confused and has my birthday up for two days in a row XD

Happy (early) birthday Hanny! I lavish you with hugs and presents via the magic of the internets!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Dave! :) haha you are actually the first to say it too :D
ReplyDeleteHanny
actually more like one of the first* :p
DeleteI've always wondered when leap year babies celebrate their birthdays! It's cool that you get to celebrate it over 48 hours!
ReplyDeleteI was hoping for more freebies like Outback. I did get a free stirfry coupon from BD's Mongolian BBQ. I registered a couple of weeks ago though. Happy Birthday to all those Leap Year Babies that don't get recognized too often.
ReplyDeleteJnana: I know :D I like the idea of having two days to celebrate.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous: If you were born on a leap year, then you can get more free stuff. I sure got a lot of it ^_^

I love the excitement building up to your birthday!! I know a lady who was born on the 29th, she barely looks her age, I always thought it had something to do with being born on the 29th. I'll check with you in 30 years.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday(It already is your birthday in Germany)
HUGS!!
Mik: haha! You know I actually got that I look younger than what I'm supposed to be today :D it might be a leap year thing? maybe.
ReplyDeleteYay!!! awesomeness and thank you ^_^

Happy birthday. I'm glad to finally have that when-do-lead-year-babies-celebrate? question answered. Clearly, it'd be wise of my wallet to never ever let me date one.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday! May it be 4x as exciting as anyone else's!
ReplyDeleteicyhighs: Thank you. It might not be like that for the other leap year babies :p it is for me though.
ReplyDeleteAsh-Matic: Thank you so much! I hope it is...so far so good :D

My great-aunt was born on February 29 and I think she actually loved only celebrating her birthday every four years!
