Weighing a bear…

Posted on February 13, 2013 by Becky Goldsmith

Or, rather, weighing Bear. Lorna, Chris, and I were curious to know whether Bear had gained or lost weight. I have a very accurate scale that we use when we package your orders. The question was how to get Bear onto the postal scale. This may be the most creative way I have used a Moda box yet…

He looks uncomfortable but in fact he did not seem to mind being in the box, on the scale. He likes being all bunched up so this posture is his default position.

He's not quite back up to his birth weight, which is normal for breast-fed babies. I'm guessing he is going to outgrow this box very soon.

If you ever play “hide and seek” when he get’s older, you might want to look in your packing boxes. What a sweet picture.

Marvelous picture! Brings back memories of all the grands being weighed on the meat scales in my husband’s family store! They had to be well wrapped for obvious reasons so didn’t look this cute.

He is so cute. What a great story! When my grandchildren were little, I put them in a laundry basket on top of a precision scale and weighed them Whatever it takes–and it works!!
