Riley drinks milk!!!!

Riley finally decided that goats milk with chocolate syrup is OK. He guzzles it down like juice. Some of the things I learned from Riley this week. Tunnels made by Daddy are fun to crawl through over and over again, lettuces crispers are fashionable and the closer you are to the camera the better you look.

Happy anniversary



Reading my sister and brother-in-law's blog, I realized I had not mentioned my own anniversary. Craig and I have been married 4 years now. Craig forgot our anniversary but who could blame him. He was going to school, working two jobs and had been taking care of Riley in the evenings while I felt yucky. I didn't mind, there are a lot more important things to get mad over. Besides, it's a lot easier to surprise Craig if he doesn't know what's going on. I cooked him a stake dinner and found a baby sitter for Riley. It was a nice relaxing evening which is what he needed the most. Of course he did say to me, "I owe you one." I'll remember that around Feb. 14.

One question we ask each other regularly is "Why did you ever marry me?" Our personalities are so different from each other. (I know other people have wondered the same thing.) There is just not a good answer for that question. I married him and am still married because I love him.

Swartz Christmas







My favorite pic. is of the demon dolls with sharp objects. I knew Barry did something mischievous because he began to laugh at his own joke then very slyly left the room. Craig does the same thing, laugh at his own jokes. The other pictures I thought were just fun to look at. There is one of Grandpa and all the grandsons (yes I am including the dog).
