Recent discoveries

We have been keeping busy this summer. The kids have had 2 trips to the zoo now one with Grandpa and Grandma Recker coming along and the other with Grandma and Grandpa Hug coming along. They did well both trips and it was nice to have the extra help. We even managed to take them on the merry go round since we had enough people to hold them on the horses. They all seemed to enjoy it but Brody perhaps the most. He would open his mouth and get excited everytime the horse would go up. It was very cute.
The kids are getting more and more active and stronger by the day. It's amazing how fast they change and learn new things. They all are really grabbing for things, watching each other and laughing at things.
Brody is the first one to cut a tooth about 2 weeks ago. He is also getting a little better about playing in the exersaucer and not screaming to be held everytime I put him in there.which makes the days a little easier. He really is starting to watch the other two and laugh and babble to them also. He still is constantly moving when you try and hold him and when I try to sit him down he moves his legs and falls back. He is our little wiggle worm. We weighed him last night and it looks as though he is up to 17.8 lbs.
Gage is still very laid back. He will go to anyone and will pretty much just chill out on their laps as long as they want to hold him. He loves his jumperoo and even moves backward on his belly but still doesn't seem to care about rolling over. He also loves to kick his legs in his baths and in the baby pool and splash around. He just loves for people to talk to him and he smiles and giggles all the time. He also discovered new sounds he can make and does them quite often. He may be our little class clown. He is starting to sit up pretty good and is still growing and up to about 21 lbs now.
Brea is becoming quite the animal lover. She loves to watch dogs and laugh. She gets really excited especially when they move or look right at her. She is still the most shy when it comes to people she doesn't know and takes a little bit to warm up. She is constantly using her feet to kick stuff like a little monkey. She probably sits the best so far and she is getting good at pulling hair too and she thinks this is quite funny. She is up to about 17.8 lbs now.
