The Sweet Gesture Chip Is Making For Joanna’s 40th Birthday
If you love the couple behind Fixer Upper and Magnolia, then you might already know that today is Joanna Gaines’ fortieth birthday. And Chip is not letting the day pass without a special kind of fanfare.
It’s pretty clear from her Instagram post today that the mom of four (soon to be five) is living her best life. “This is 40. And I like it,” she captions the photo, adding hashtags #pregnantandforty #anddoughnuts.
Chip, who calls himself a Twitter nerd, wished his wife a happy birthday over on his social media platform of choice this morning:
Happy birthday sweet girl! #40neverLookedSoGood

A few hours later, though, he followed his message up with a gift of sorts. “This is sooo superficial & DUMB, but.. I’d really like to see @joannagaines hit 1M followers on her bday,” he tweeted. And to sweeten the pot, so to speak, he’s putting his money where his heart is: “For every new follower she gets today, I’ll donate $1 to @StJude. GO!,” he added.
I’m a complete @twitter nerd. I’ll admit that! & this is sooo superficial & DUMB, but.. I’d really like to see @joannagaines hit 1M followers on her bday. Kindof a #Twitterverse gift to her.. One more thing, for every new follower she gets today. I’ll donate 1$ to @StJude. GO!

This isn’t the first time the illustrious children’s hospital has been on the receiving end of charity from Chip; in November, he shaved his head to benefit the non-profit, raising $230,00o.
As of this writing, Joanna is at just over 998,000 followers.
