Carol Stream brothers arrive on 10/10/10 and 11/11/11

It won’t be easy for family members to forget the birthdays of brothers Liam and Mason Brennan of Carol Stream.

Michelle and Jonathan Brennan’s first child, Mason Matthew, was born on Oct. 10, 2010, also known as 10/10/10.

On Friday, Michelle gave birth to Liam Patrick at Central DuPage Hospital in Winfield. The date: 11/11/11.

“It’s quite a surprise,” said aunt Debbie Gardner. “It was nothing that was planned.”

Gardner brought Mason over to the hospital to visit his brother for the first time on Friday afternoon.

“When Mason came he was five weeks early,” Gardner said. “People didn’t concentrate on the date til later in the day.”
