a boy and his buzz

There are those people who can walk into D.I. and find the best deals every time. I've never been one of those people. Maybe it's because I don't have a good eye for it, or maybe it's because I'm just to impatient to look long enough. 
That being said, our California trip changed William's life. He has 2 new loves: airplanes, and Toy Story (particularly Buzz Lightyear). He still loves Lightning McQueen, trains, Thomas the Train, cars, trucks, and so on, but Buzz and airplane take up a lot of his time lately. 
Back to DI... I had to drop some stuff off while I was out running errands. I don't usually go in, but thought maybe I'd quickly scope things out. See if there were any good children's books or something. We walked towards the back and it was like he was there, waiting for us, and calling out to William as we walked by. Buzz Lightyear! A big one! And best of all, IT WORKS and it was only ONE DOLLAR! We grabbed it quick and William just about passed out from excitement. 
Buzz has come just about everywhere with us the last few days. William loves putting him his shopping cart and running up and down the hallways with him. We lucked out big time on that DI trip!


P.S. Buzz is not allowed in the crib at naptime/bedtime. One too many "too infinity and beyond!"s waking William up whenever he rolls over...
