How large is your family and extended family?
I am the 5th of 7 children, and I currently have 5 nieces, 1 nephew, and 1 niece on the way. 🙂
On my dad's side, he has 3 brothers, 1 sister. The aunt I think only had 1 child, and is in his mid-30's I think. I don't believe I have actually met him in person, but I know what he sounds like. Two of the 3 brothers of my dad has 2 or 3 children each, which I have met them, and they are around my age, while my last uncle on that side never tried to get children. Oh, and my grandmother and grandfather (my dad's parents) are both dead (health and age related). So I believe I have 6 1st cousins on my dad's side. I don't know anything about second or third cousins on my dad's side, due to everyone in my dad's family not wanting to make contact with us for some strange reason.
On my mother's side, she has something like 8 or 9 brothers and sisters, and each of them has around the same amount of children each. And I also believe that my grandparents also had large families also, which makes the amount of first, second, and third cousins in the pretty large amount. I would say that most of my first cousins have children of their own, which makes the children 1st cousins once removed (which will make my nieces and nephews second cousins to my 1st cousins children).
