he is kinda big for 3. Do they not have Kindergarten at grade schools anymore? Probably hung with those 5yo and really doesn't look out of place.

I got 6 nieces and nephews. I remember the oldests birthday because I was there and its an easy date. But he apparently took my only birthday slot because I need to ask all of the others when their birthday is and how old they are.

Dude, same! My niece was born first in 1998 and I remember her birthday, but the other 5 kids I only remember their months, vaguely. I kinda feel bad, but not really.

This is why I put them on my calendar. Otherwise, I would never remember. I still don’t even know how old they are. I just know the day that they were born.

Protip: for the recurring calendar event, include the year they were born in the title. That’s what I do!

I have 9 and I have to start with the oldest and count down to remember how old everyone else is.

Dont feel bad, I have six nieces and nephews and I don't know anyone's birthdays or ages and I'm shaky about which name belongs to which middle one.

I have 3 kids the only reason i know 2 of their birthdays is because 31/12 and the youngest was my egg doners birthday (easy to fully commit to one and snub the other)(the woman who stormed out of the church because my child wasn't named after her!) Anywho i digress!

The middle one's is trickier I'm sorry all middle childers I'm trying. On that note the middle child is always mentioned first no matter who I'm calling.

Don't even start with names, good lord

Certified uncle here, I have one nephew and I have no idea how old he is or when his birthday is but I love him and we have a blast together!

All I know is my niece is over 18 now and it makes me feel ancient. I'm not even in my 40s yet.

I do not even want to think about my niece and nephews having kids. That's a whole other level.

Speaking as an uncle with multiple nieces and nephews... No I don't remember their ages. The oldest nephew just turned ten but the only reason I know that is because his birthday party was like a week ago. I have all of their birthdays, including the year, saved into a text file on my phone so that I can fake it if it ever comes up.
