BGP routes discrepancy

i have a small lab of 3 routers in dual-homed hub & spoke :R1, R2, R3. R1 is
the Hub. R2 & R3 are in the same AS, and R1 is acting as the ISP. each spoke
advertises 1 network (R2=172.16.32.x and R1=172.16.64.x), and the ISP (R1)
advertises 3 networks: 192.168.100.0., 1.1.1.0, and 11.11.11.0. R1 and R2
have an iBGP peering.

my questions is: how come R1 shows 5 prefixes being sent to R2 vs 3 sent to
R3? more over, both R2 and R3 show only 3 prefixes being learned from R1.
all seem to checkout on R3 (showing only 3 prefixes sent/received), but the
output on R2 puzzles me a bit. shouldn't it reflect 3 prefixes just like R3?
There are no filters whatsoever on any of the routers, and i have done a
hard reset a couple of times. please advise.
Thanks in advance for your input
