News!!!

This has been an exciting week at the Kok house!
Today we found out we are having a BOY!!!!!! The ultra sound went well, he is healthy and doing great. We can't wait to meet the little guy.

We also sold our current house on Tuesday, which means we get to

move into our new house at the end of February!


Here is a picture of Baby Ben inside me:)

Val failed to mention that while we do get the house, unfortunately the pimped out Explorer in the driveway is not part of the package...yes, I am sad.

I did a happy-hallelujah dance for you guys like ten times. What a stellar day you had! We are excited to see the new digs and meet Baby Ben!

Words can't describe. Let's just say "I told you so". I knew the house would sell and I knew you were having a boy. I should quit this nursing gig and become a palm reader or something. I am so, so, so happy for you two and cannot wait for our little nephew to get here. I've already bought him two little outfits:). And we can't wait for you guys to move into the "mansion", do know that your new neighbors will be over there A LOT. We'll take the kids to the Y, go back to your house, have a few drinks, and then pick them back up:). Val, you look pretty damn cute and only you could rock white sweats while being 20 weeks pregnant...bitch.

Hi,

Mayby this is a strange question, but did you or your husband had a grandfather named Wim Kok born in Dedemsvaart, the Netherlands. If so, we might be related...

Val said...

Hi Gerjan- Yes, we do have a distant family member by that name. I think he was some sort of political figure in the past.
