He's got a friend in Wall-E


It is absolutely not surprising in the slightest bit that Alex loves Wall-E so much. After all, this is the child who's very first friend was none other than Kasey The Kinderbot.

Since Wall-E just came out recently on DVD along with the slew of toys and merchandise for the holidays - there was a definite theme for Alex's birthday and Christmas gifts... Wall-E everything. He received the wall-e dvd, of course - a special 3 disc version. He also got several books of the reading type and coloring type - one that I am particularly excited about it is a Learn to Draw Wall-E Book. We really want to encourage Alex's artwork. He took to drawing logos a couple of years ago and enjoys drawing on paper as well as recently figuring out all by himself how to draw using the graphics program on my laptop. I get a kick out of him referring to his drawings as "his masterpieces" and I can't bear to delete the hundreds of little logos he has done of FBI screens and Disney logos off of my system.
Santa also brought Alex not one, but two- Wall-E interactive robots. One has a remote control and the other "just" makes sounds. He loves them both.

In true Autism spirit, here are his Wall-Es all together, with the Pixar lamp.. engaged in a worship ceremony of sorts with the Pixar Shorts DVD. Note that he has the larger Wall-E holding the remote to his new Pixar Lamp Toy! You know he has to love Wall-E if he's willing to share that remote.

So sweet - the "homage" to the Pixar lamp! I gotta find one for Nigel.

Nick has watched Wall-E three times since he opened it for Christmas. Nice collection of Wall-E stuff. Thank goodness those days are over since he is too old for some toys, but his book and magazine collection is catching up to my own.
