MARYSVILLE, Ohio (AP) — It won't take much for Jenna and William Cotton to remember the birthday of the newest member of their family.
Daughter Kayla was born Tuesday, which was Oct. 2 — the same date her brothers were born.
Ayden Cotton arrived on Oct. 2, 2003; Logan was born Oct. 2, 2006.
The parents said they had a feeling their baby daughter might come a couple of days past her Sept. 30 due date. Sure enough, Jenna Cotton, 23, began having contractions early Tuesday, hours before a planned birthday party for the boys.
She had a doctor's appointment scheduled later in the day and hung in for the party. Ayden, the 4-year-old, wanted to know if his new baby sister would make the festivities, Jenna Cotton said.
Kayla, at 7-pounds, 8-ounces, was born at 7:07 p.m. Tuesday.
The odds of a family having three children born on the same date in different years are about 7.5 in 1 million, said Bill Notz, a statistics professor at Ohio State University.

You just know those kids were all conceived during the holidays. A little Christmas cha-cha. Some New Years nookie. A Hanukkah hump. The Solstice slide. A kwanz-- eh, nobody celebrates Kwanzaa.

Eh, that's not that wierd. Tell me that they gave birth to the same kid three times, and then I might be interested.
