Inflatables

Last year Jocelyn really liked the inflatable outdoor decorations and kept an eye out for when they were blown up or "sleeping".  Well, this year, she is OBSESSED with them!!  Our neighbors put theirs out first, and as soon as Jocelyn saw it flat on the ground, she was in a total panic.  "Momma tell Mrs. C--- to blow it up!!"  "Momma Santa sleeping!  Tell Mrs C--- to wake him up!!"  "Momma!  Momma!  Momma!"  She hounded me for 1/2 hour about it!  Of course, Mrs. C--- said theirs is on a timer.  How NOT helpful!! 
So out came our inflatable penguins! 

Jocelyn's "watching" the penguins to make sure they don't go to "sleep"

Then she jumped at the chance to get her picture taken with them!!

Now if I could just get my neighbors to understand how tramatized my child is that she can't make Santa "wake up" when she wants him too!
