Robin Roberts and Amber Laign are gearing up for the sprint of their lives this week as they prepare for their magical upcoming wedding after 18 years together.
However, what makes the week so magical is the fact that it gives them an opportunity to bask in double the celebration, with September 5 also marking Amber's birthday.
The wellness entrepreneur and the Good Morning America anchor's longtime partner will turn 49 just days ahead of her big wedding, and it seemed like no one felt the joy more than their rescue dog, Lil Man Lukas.
Their adorable pooch has a dedicated Instagram account (boasting 18,000 plus followers) and it featured a new photo of an attentive Lukas soaking up some sun while his moms lounged behind him.
The caption read: "It's a big week for my mommy. Tomorrow is her birthday and she just told me that at the end of the week I won't be the only one she's giving her heart to. I can handle it cuz I'm a big boy now!" and included the hashtag "HereComeTheBrides." Fans inundated the post with early birthday wishes and heart emojis galore.
The brides-to-be are spending some time away from their various professional commitments to devote to wedding prep, with Robin, 62, declaring last Wednesday, August 30, on GMA that it would be her last day on the show before returning as a "married woman."
There's another reason why September is a big month for Robin and Amber, as it was the very same month that they met for the first time, all the way back in 2005, when they were set up by a mutual friend.
While they kept their relationship on the down low at first, in 2013, Robin came out as a lesbian with a Facebook post after her life-saving bone marrow transplant, simultaneously revealing her romance with Amber.
In a story from People about her decision to come out, Robin wrote: "I am so encouraged today by so many LGBTQ+ people who are visible in my industry. Somewhat ironically, when I came out, it was my industry who kept reporting, 'Gay! She's gay! Oh!' Meanwhile the public was going like, 'Uh, duh! Really? That's your headline?'

"But I didn't come out necessarily for me. I did it because I love [my partner] Amber. I was just thanking everybody. I did it via a simple social media post where I thanked my doctors, my parents.
"But then, was I not going to thank this woman who had been by me through this illness? But people got it. 'Oh, she's just grateful,' they said. 'It's just love.' They didn't make it anything more than me living my life.

"Now people ask me about Amber like they would if her name was Andy. Sometimes I have to pause and take that in."
