Yes, and it's easy to figure it out.
Draw a box, and then divide it into four equal sections by drawing a cross in the box. [This is called a "Punnet square," and it's used extensively in genetics lessons in biology to figure out the odds of offspring having certain characteristics.]
Next, put an A over one of the columns and a B beside it above the column next to it This is mom's genotype for AB blood. Next, put an A next to both of the boxes that are left. This is dad's genotype for AA blood.
Now, use the chart like a multiplication table. Write the letter above the column and the letter beside the column inside the smaller boxes. You'll come up with AA, AB, AA, and AB.
These are the blood types that can result.

Yes it's possible, but more likely baby will be A, since that is present in both.
Me = AB+
Father of My Child = B+
#1 son = B+
#2 son = B+

Uh...yeah. This is actually the most common situation--a parent has a child with the same blood type. Why would you think otherwise is the question?

yep, if baby gets A from dad, and B from you. Is there a particular reason you want to know?
