Pru had her one-month checkup this week.  Everything looks pretty good.
Her vital statistics:
Length:  20.5 inches (28th percentile)

Coming soon for sale: Brawndo, the Thirst Mutilator! It sounds gross beyond measure, but I may have to pick up one or two to keep with the can of Buzz Cola I bought around the time of the Simpsons Movie. One must maintain one’s collection of fictional beverages. h/t: Steve Sailer
