Do you have any family birthdays that fall around, or near, to Christmas?

Our family celebrates 5 BD's in December incl. DS, 2 DGC's, SonIL and myself, with our son's being the 24th . I'd decorated a 7' tree that day and went into labor 3 wks early delivering my C'mas eve bundle of joy !! He was 4lbs 15oz when we brought him home from the hospital. Having only daughters, we were on to have our son!

Every year we hold a big family C'mas eve party ! Everything is DS's BD up until 7 pm - then he announces it's C'mas and everyone in family exchanges gifts! Not particularly fun having a holiday BD, but we've learn to adjust and it's all good!!

My birthday is January 2nd.

So is mine.
I'll be 50 and can't go away because it's the busy time of year at work and the airfare is outragious those few days. I would have loved to gone to WDW for 4 or 5 days.

My DH's birthday is Jan 10.

My brother on the 11th
niece & nephew both on the 23rd (siblings born 3 years apart)

I think my family gets bored late in winter.....

My daughter will turn 9 on Christmas Day. It always makes me a bit sad that she doesn't have her own day, but we do a GREAT job of making a big deal out of her birthday so that it's never forgotten or second fiddle. She's having a sleepover party on December 18th, but she'll get a huge load of Birthday presents in addition to everything else on Christmas Day.

My son will be 10 on December 7th. His seems far enough in advance of Christmas that it doesn't affect him much. Very few people have ever done the combo gift thing for him. He is having a party on the 6th.

My boyfriend was born on January 5th, so he's right in there too.

My exhusband's birthday was (I guess it still is, but in my life, it's a was) December 8th.

There's many more in my extended family. I have cousins born on the 9th, 15th and 18th of December. An uncle on the 10th and a great-aunt also born Christmas Day. I know there's more than that, but I can't remember them all.

My sisters birthday is Christmas Eve. It just so happened to be my first Christmas as I was born January of the same year. Her husbands birthday is Dec. 28, and then mine on Jan. 7th.

Let's see...my late great-grandmother's birthday was the 23rd, and my cousin's is Christmas Eve. We just incorporated their family birthday parties with our annual post-church-service gathering the evening of the 24th (with separate birthday cakes, of course!).

Mine is the 21st of January, so I get to benefit from those post-Christmas sales. I get lots of great gifts for myself with my birthday money!

 

[AKL_Megs]

DH's birthday is New Years Eve... December 31st!

[HsvTeacher]

We have four: Two in December and two in January. (Mine is one of the January birthdays, and I always hated it when I was younger!)

Wow, so many people born on or about Christmas!

Mine is the 26th, and my parents were very good at making a big thing about it, including arranging separate birthday parties. The one thing I regret was that since the day was already a holiday, I never got permission to skip part of school to get ready for the party.

DW still laughs about how, when we go married, I kept on dropping not-so-subtle hints about how Christmas and birthdays should be celebrated separately. Thankfully, the message got through!
