Curiousity

So in another person's journal the topic of birthdays near holidays came up. Which got me thinking and wondering if other people find that there are grouped birthdays or special events? Are they concentrated on around certain holidays? By example I give you the 'calendar' for my family:

Jan- Birthdays- Me 11, dh's son-in-law 13 (I think)
Feb- Birthdays- Mom Feb 27, Grandma P
March- Birthdays- Brothers 28, DH 29, Grandpa D 30
April- Birthdays- Sis 2
May- Anniversaries- Sis and Bro-in-law 30, Sis-in-Law K and hubby J
June- Birthdays- mom-in-law 9, step-daughter M 20, sis-in-law M 24, sis-in-law B 25, Anniversaries- Bro and B- 14, Bro and M- 19
July- Anniversary- Mom and Dad
August- Birthdays- sis-in-law K 6, Dad Aug 30
September-
October- Anniversary- DH and Me
November- Birthdays- Bro-in-law 3, Baby B 8
December- Christmas!!

So mid-June is a bit hectic, as is late March/early April, but other than that- we're fairly well spread out- how about the rest of you?

Mid-April has my daughter, my husband, and my brother within six days of each other, sometimes clustered around Easter. My MIL's birthday is on Boxing Day. Myself and my two sisters were all born in the summer - 32 days between me, first, and my middle sister, last. That's about it for clustering in my family.

The most common birthday months are March, April, and May, because people get pregnant while on summer vacation. :) (I have some personal experience with that phenomenon. . . :)

You have a lot of teachers in your family huh? ;)

Not really - in fact at the moment, I'm the only one. But vacations in July and August have always been common because of the school system, so it's not just teachers who get pregnant then.
