Lance Armstrong is building his own army. The bicycling champion and his girlfriend, Anna Hanson, have announced they are expecting a a new baby. It will be Armstrong's fifth child and his second with Hanson.
Armstrong, 38, confirmed the happy news (which he had alluded to in some strange tweets) to his local Austin, Texas, newspaper. The kid's sex has yet to be determined, so the parents say he or she will be known as either Jack or Olivia. The child will meanwhile be called Cinco Armstrong, his poppa said.
Armstrong took to Twitter Thursday evening to break the news to fans, announcing the kid already has a Twitter page.
"Getting ?'s today about someone I'm following, a certain @Cincoarmstrong. What to say? Yet another blessing in our lives," he wrote. "I cannot wait!"
"I got 2 arms, 2 legs, a nickname, and i'm 2 inches long," Cinco says in his/her first post. "I'm now the size of a lemon, 3.5 inches long, and weigh 1.5 ounces. And oh yeah, I'm on Twitter."
Armstrong now has five kids, adding Cinco to his gang of Luke, 10, twin girls Isabelle and Grace, 8, and Max, who was born last June.
