Not something I drink, but it reminds me of when I was little because orange pop was always my favourite. Good for you for getting it done though, one more thing checked off the list.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06775254688394259213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4979822866701300004.post-47354816428017354842012-05-03T12:09:58.433-05:002012-05-03T12:09:58.433-05:00Oh my goodness!

She never ends up having anything wrong, but her first test always gets poor results. Poor thing. I can hardly stand it once! It is nice to have an excuse to read a book though. I used to keep a journal in my bag when I was pregnant so I could write in it at the doctor's office. It's the only time in my life I kept a slightly regular journal thanks to the long weight times!Yo Momma Runshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02303930412601863052noreply@blogger.com
