My balloon is more than 10 weeks old. It's starting to lose its resiliance a little when people walk by it and disturb the air. It used to just drift a little then pop back up, tightening the ribbon; straining against the weight holding it down. Now it takes a few minutes before the ribbon is taut(-ish).

And, it's definitely lost its plumpness. It's kind of tired and sad looking, but still very pretty. I gave it a nice sticker for Easter.

Chris says the weight of all the stickers probably adds to its recovery time when it's disturbed. But I don't care. It likes the stickers.

And I love my balloon.
