Dead as a door knob

Elijah giving his baby a ride. 

I was cutting up some meat this evening and one of my younger kids had said that the meat was "as dead as a door knob".  It is funny what kids say.

Elijah was learning some colors this afternoon and got stuck on the word burgundy.  He was going around the house repeating "burgundy" in a cute baby voice, over and over again.  

In the picture, Elijah was giving his baby doll a ride in his dump truck.  Elijah's baby always has a smile on it's face.  He loves having his picture taken.  If you pull out a camera, you must take his picture quickly, because he immediately wants to see the screen and look at the picture.

Wow, one week of the new year is officially gone.  It is truly amazing how fast time flies by.  It is my prayer that we all may use our time to great ends in this current year that we are in.
