Yesterday, Rob went to the doctor for a check-up. He's turning 37 this year and we both figured that he should probably go in and make sure he's healthy. He informed me that his blood pressure was perfect...which is good, considering the fact that he has a 50/50 chance of developing PKD (polycystic kidney disease) and high blood pressure is one of the symptoms. Anyways, to make sure his kidneys were ok he went in for an ultrasound today and the technician said they did NOT look enlarged and she could NOT see any cysts...thank goodness! So...for all of you who thought that Rob's gradual weight gain might've been a symptom related to PKD, it is NOT...he's just not playing ball as frequently anymore and I hate to say it, but...he's getting OLDER!!! I suspect that we'll be doing these ultrasounds every 2-3 years to make sure he hasn't developed PKD...which is fine by me because I'm kindof attached to the man and hope that he stays around for a very long time! Love you babe!

Rachel, Stephen is turning 37 this year too. We are not old, just married to old men, lol
Glad to hear Rob's got a clean bill of health...now he can get busy working on those shelves in the garage ;). Let me know if you want Bryan to come up and help!
You guys look so cute together! Glad all's well in the Arnold house!
Good to hear Rob's healthy, too bad for him he has nothing to attribute his weight gain to, except his laziness just like the rest of us and love of food.
I am glad to hear that Rob is going to be with us for a while. Russ would get lonely...especially when he turns 40 this year!
