And if you want a whole year's worth, you can get pretty close with:

   import itertools as i
   import calendar as c
   for month in range(1,13):
     for week in c.monthcalendar(2009, month):
       print repr(w)

You don't detail how you want the month-boundaries to behave, so 
this gives "calendar"'s default behavior of filling in zeros on 
month-boundaries, so November through the 1st week in Dec 2009 
comes back as

   ...
   [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1],
   [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8],
   [9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15],
   [16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22],
   [23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29],
   [30, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
   [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6],
   ...

rather than

   ...
   [26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 1],
   [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8],
   [9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15],
   [16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22],
   [23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29],
   [30, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6],
   ...
