2) and weigh it regularly- same day each month.
3) Record
Also if it is tiny you can trace it or set it on a scanner and scan it (just make sure the scanner does not get hot).
If you trace it each month you trace over the original and mark the date and wt.
What ever method you use, use the same one each time whether you record it weekly, bi-monthyl or monthly.
