The Invasion of "Buzz" & "Woody"

A couple weeks ago Xay & I were walking through the store and he saw a shirt with the characters Buzz & Woody on it, he said: "Mama, BUZZ! WOODY!!" I was so excited that he knew who they were that I bought it for him.

The obsession begins. At first I thought it was adorable that he would ask for buzz and woody everything, but then it became a little overwhelming. We are up to watching Toy Story 3 3-4 times a day (Unless I hide it from him) And, if he sees ANYTHING at the store that has a buzz or woody character on it I find myself having to veer away from that section because he tries to put it in our cart.

The perfect example would be when we were in the grocery store and he saw this giant size buzz and woody coloring book. He immediately went to the "Mama, Buzz, Woody, COLOR!" It was only $4 bucks so I thought hey why not. When we got up to the check out stand Xay had a hard time REFUSED to give the coloring book to the clerk because he thought she was stealing it from him.

When I put him in the car, again he refused to take his little hands away from clutching this huge coloring book. I got him strapped up in his car seat and ready to go, and after a long car ride home I found him passed out, still clutching his buzz and woody coloring book...



This obsession is taking over our lives. I find myself speaking in code and not wanting to even mention the names "Buzz" or "woody" for fear of a full fledged tantrum that is sure to follow if I don't immediately put in the movie.

His birthday is coming up and my mom has excitedly offered to help me with his cake which I'm sure xay is going to absolutely love. My only hope is that he shares it with the other children and doesn't try to carry it around as a prize. :)
