So I have been told by a lot of people that my girls look nothing a like. I'm not so sure. Sometimes I look at Abigail and I see Izabella when she was that age. Then there are other times I look at her and she is distinctly her own person.
So I'm going to put you all to the test!
Following are 5 sets of photos of the girls (for some reason I couldn't get them all side by side). I want you to tell me which one is which. Have fun!!!
Here is a picture of each of the girls when they were in the hospital.
These where the girls baby photos. Do you know who is who?
Both of my girls love sitting in their bouncers!
Just laying in their cribs!
Both girls love to play...look at them smile!!
I think when they were first born the girls had many similarities. However, as they grow they do look different. You can tell they are sisters, but they do have their own looks. And I hope Abigail's hair keeps growing, she already has as much as Bella did on her first birthday!
Love you all,

I cannot believe that my baby is already 4 months old!! She is growing up way to fast for me. At her check up last week she weighed 12.5 lbs and was 26 in long. That's a lot bigger then Bella was at that age. She has a very healthy appetite wakes up only one time a night, and her favorite person in the world is her big sister. Izabella is so good with Abigail. They love to play together, read books and Bella plays "This Piggy" and "Patty Cake" with her daily. I couldn't have been blessed with more sweet girls...I just wish they weren't growing up so fast!!!
I love my girls!!

So last weekend Mike decided that Izabella and he needed to have an official Daddy Daughter Date...it was decided that Saturday night this would happen. While I was at work for the day, Daddy and Bella built a huge fort in Bella's bedroom and then I was sent on a grocery run before I was allowed to come home. Mike and Bella made a pancake dinner and were off to the fort with dinner and movies.
After dinner and movies they broke out the good stuff...Chocolate Milk, Ice Cream, Crackers and Cheese and a couple other goodies.
The fort kind of came down half way into the first move so they could see better.
I don't think any of us need to wonder were Izabella gets her cheese ball smile!!
I think this was what I finally found after the third movie for the night!!
Both Daddy and "Izzy" (what daddy calls her now) had so much fun and are looking forward to their next Daddy Daughter Date night which will be held under the stars!!

For Easter Nana sent Bella a whole sloe of things, including bubbles...What kid doesn't love bubbles~! So the other day Daddy and Izabella went outside to see if they had the magic to make BIG Bubbles...
I think the achieved their goal. What do you think?
Bella trying to figure out how to blow small bubbles...
Daddy steps in to help!!
At least she knows how to chase them!
Daddy blowing more and more bubbles...
"Bella get um, Bella get um ALL!!!"
Now it's Bella's turn to blow bubbles.
I'm not sure if Daddy and Bella had more fun or if Abigail and I did watching them. This was really a fun family activity that we will have to do again very soon.
Love you,

We spent Easter in Nampa at Mike's parents this year. Izabella loves spending time with Grandma and Grandpa and it is sure more relaxing then being at home. A two year old and a three month old can really take a toll on ones sleep, energy, patients, and even my sanity sometimes. I was so relaxing to share this day with Grandma and Grandpa.
Saturday night Izabella colored Easter Eggs. She had so much fun!!
Cheesy Smile as she turns her eggs in the color.
She was really working hard on all those eggs.
Grandma even joined in on the fun!!
Easter morning was great!! The girls both received some great things and Izabella's excitement and joy made my entire day
This was Izabella's basket... well actually it was her stool. She had been wanting a stool to have in the bathroom so she could go potty all by herself and it made a very useful basket.
Abigail's Easter Basket!!
Easter morning Bella was loving her new Ducky!!
Abigail loved her little purple bunny!!
The Easter Bunny hide eggs of candy through out the front room and I have to say after a month of practice and the Easter egg hunt the day before, the Easter Bunny didn't stand a chance. She found every egg with in minutes!!
Mommy and Abigail enjoying Easter morning!!
Love you,

Mike was adopted into the Jenk's family years ago, so as he has added to the family we have all in turn become part of the wonderful family as well. I remember the first year Mike and I went to the Easter Egg Hunt. I had got up early and dressed my best so that I was prepared to meet this family. I will never forget Amanda asking me in horror, "That's not what you're wearing is it?". I guess my tan pants and cute pink shirt was not acceptable, and I found out why. This Easter Egg hunt is a full out war between each individuals as they try desperately to find as many of the thousand eggs that have been hidden. The prize, you're name on the family winner plaque. Not to mention that it is an all out battle between the hunters and the hiders to see who is better. I couldn't believe it. It was so much fun to watch. I'm not sure if I will ever be brave enough to hunt, but we'll just have to wait till next year.
Last year was Izabella's first year to hunt and she did very well and found six eggs. This year we started practicing in our back yard about two weeks before and she was ready. In fact Mike had to hold her back at the starting line. All she wanted to do was find those eggs. 
Daddy and Bella ready for the hunt!
Holding Bella back until it's time.
Erin and her boys, Luke and Jacob ready to hunt some eggs.
Go Bella, Go!!!
She did very well again this year and found 17 eggs. The whole time running from egg to egg yelling, "Bella find them, Bella find those eggs." Then jumping for joy and shouting, "Bella did it, Bella found the egg." every time she found one. It was so much fun watching her fill her little Easter egg bucket.
Bella and Daddy after the egg hunt.
Look at all those eggs!!
At the end she was not willing to give up her eggs. We had practiced with plastic eggs full of candy and she wanted her candy. What she didn't realize was that she had hunted real eggs and there was no candy inside. She found that out after tarring on of her eggs open. Then she was willing to turn in her eggs for a bag of candy.
Erin counting Izabella's eggs.
During the teenagers hunt Izabella helped Crayson out by pulling out 5 eggs from under this wood pile. She pulled them out and then walked away casually just as Crayson came around the corner and found them laying there. Way to go Bella.
Mike was a hider the year and I think they won. They hid or rather buried thousands of eggs in an alfalfa field. You had to dig to find them, and the ones you didn't have to dig for you didn't see until you almost or did in fact step right on them.
During the adult hunt Mike and I were walking around looking for eggs that they had missed and Bella walked with us. She found two eggs laying in the grass. Then when she found out some where buried in the dirt she didn't waist anytime digging in and found three more eggs. Making a grand total of 27 eggs found for the day...Way to go Bella.
Grandma Char and Nicole heading out to the hunt.
Rachael on the hunt!!
Papa Fred brings his golf cart every year to keep up with all the action.
Here is Papa Fred and Izabella watching the adult Easter egg hunt.
We had left Abigail with Grandpa and Grandma Plane since it had snowed the day before and we weren't sure how warm it was going to be. It ended up being a great day, however, it was fun being able to spend a day with Bella and I think Grandpa and Grandma enjoyed having Abi. Thank you so much.
Here are a few more pictures of Izabella eating and playing at the BBQ.
That is one big Strawberry...and she ate the whole thing.
Now it's time for dessert!!! Yummy pink cupcake.
Running on the trailer with Luke was so much fun!!
Smile Bella!!
I think all that hunting wore her out.Love ya,
Michael, Stefanie, Izabella and Abigail
