I'll add my birthday in here. I'll be 39 on December 3. I'm kind of dreading it. My dh is a few years younger than me, so he likes to tease. There will come a day that I will seek revenge. I bet he won't be too happy turning 40.

My birthday is December 26. I have the kind of birthday that everyone has to make a comment about when they see that it is the day after Christmas. Oh well, I guess it could be worse and be on Christmas.
I am a Christmas baby and I enjoy it. It's one thing that my mom always did for me that made me feel special. She always seperated the holiday and my birthday. She always made me a cake. I always received seperate birthday and Christmas gifts. It really isn't all that bad even though I have nothing in which to compare it to. I do get the comments all the time about how dreadful it must have been, but like I said my mom never combined the two and I think that is why I feel good about it.
mine is christmas day and my mom always tried to give me a birthday and christmas sometimes it was very hard for her but i always felt special. i will be 30 this year and i hopeing my next 30 will be differant in a good kind of way.. as for birthday cake i have had 2 in my life well after all it is christmas why would you want to eat a stale birthday cake from the grocery store when you could have homemade goodies my family does cookies and fudge and pies not much call for cake there. But anyway my life has had it moment like most but it has been pretty good. i have 1 birthday party in my life i think i will throght myslef a party this year for the big 3-0 anybody want to come?????????
The only other person I know that has a Christmas birthday is one of my friends at work. Good to meet you. I sure do remember my 30th birthday party! I think it was the wildest one I have ever had! Unfortunately I am working on the 40th now. I will be 38 this year. Where's the party and maybe we can find some other Christmas babies to come?! As for the cake thing, my mom always made me and my brother and sister a cake for our birthdays'. She loved to bake so it was just another excuse to cook something. We did usually get to pick what kind of cake we wanted and what kind of frosting, tho. Hope to see you on the boards.
My birthday is on the 26th also . My mom always made a special effort to seperate my b-day from Christmas, but now I don't even want to bother, I'd rather do it on Christmas Day or Christmas Eve - whenever we're with the family anyway.
My day is Dec. 13. Can you imagine turning 40 on Friday 13th? It rained all day, was cold, and some of my "friends" sent black balloons and dead roses. That's been a "few" years ago, but it will always be one of my most remembered birthdays.

my birthday is the 26th also and i will be 29 this year. i remember being really sad when i was little, because all my girlfriends had slumber parties on their birthdays and i couldn't because everyone was gone on Christmas vacation. my mom always let me do something a few weeks before or after and that was okay. now i love it, because all the stores have awesome sales... in honor of my birthday, of course! ha ha.
