The girls turned 3 months on the 3rd of August.

One of the weekends in July we went for a walk. We walked all the way to the Truckee River which runs right through Reno. We must have walked for about 5 miles that day. When the girls got hungry, we stopped at a shady spot and fed them their bottles. This is looking west towards downtown Reno.
You can see some tall buildings in the background. Those are of the casinos and hotels. I didn't know how pretty the river would be. It is clear and cool on a hot summer day.
Barry and the babies posing on the bridge.
Here are some kids enjoying the cool water.
I took pictures of Brenna in just her pampers. I already have pictures of Chantrell in pampers. I wanted to be fair and have some cute pics of Brenna.
I love how chubby she is getting.

August 3rd, the girls turned 3 months old. They are dressed in twinsy outfits lying on our bed. First is Brenna.
I added the teddy bear that they got when they were born. I will take pictures of them with the bear again each month and then hopefully you will be able to see their growth. It's kind of funny how I made the teddy bear hold Brenna.This picture shows the back of her head with some red hair growing in. Chantrell's turn for her 3 month old photo shoot.Teddy and Chantrell just hanging out.Chantrell is probably wondering who is holding her.
Here is the back of Chantrell's head showing her brown hair.Daddy and his girls.Barry was playing with Brenna and making her clap her hands.Look how tiny her hand is compared to Barry's hand. I love this photo. More playing pictures.Chantrell was playing on the floor while Barry was playing with Brenna. Sorry the picture is turned sideways. Chantrell has a red dot under her left arm. It is growing a little bit. The doctor said it will grow bigger and then disappear when she gets older.What a pretty smile she has.Both of the girls together. Brenna left, Chantrell right.Cute sisters together.This is Chantrell in the bouncy swing for the first time. She did OK in it for awhile. The picture below is of her in the doorway but looking out. I took a video of her in the swing bouncing (with my help).

A different day, Chantrell is enjoying the swing in the doorway getting some fresh air. She is wearing her "I love daddy" shirt. Brenna is outside enjoying some fresh air too. She looks good in blue overalls and the blue bouncy chair.What a beautiful baby!! Both of my girls are beautiful. I just like this picture a lot.This is a toy from "Once Upon A Child" store. It plays music and the girls can press the keys to make the animal sounds too. Here is Chantrell pretending to play the piano."Mom, I don't even know how to play this!" Looking down over her shoulder. Her hair is growing. Yeah!!Brenna's turn on the piano.She thinks that she is one year old. See her one finger sticking up.Top of Brenna's head. Not much hair yet."Mmmmmm . . . my hand tastes yummy." Monday, Aug. 11th at night Brenna laughed for the first time. It was so cute that I couldn't stop laughing. She did it a couple more times and both Barry and I kept trying to make her laugh again. I will try to get a video clip of it and post it on the blog. Chantrell is really close to laughing too. She opens her mouth and gets a huge smile but no sound comes out.
