Jonathan is Home


We love our baby! It is so wonderful to have him home with us! Jonathan is the sweetest baby-- he only cries when he's hungry. He has a very sweet and docile personality. He enjoys quietly observing his surroundings, especially our faces. He has gentle eyes and we are totally enamoured by him.
Benjamin is the sweetest big brother! He is very soft and gentle and always thrilled to see Jonathan and hold him and tickle his feet. We are adjusting nicely and enjoying the pure spirit Jonathan and Benjamin bring to our home. Life is so good!
We are also grateful for the help of "Grammy", Melinda's mom. I love having my mommy around! It really helps to make this transition go much more smoothly.
Benjamin also has recently decided to potty train... overall he is doing really well! He gets super-excited whenever he does his duty in the toilet-- he gets especially ecstatic about his "potty treat" (Skittles) and his Elmo underwear :).
Enjoy some pictures and videos of our sweet little family at home. Love to all!

He's here! Jonathan Kelly Higgins


On May 25, 2007, 12:20pm, Jonathan Kelly Higgins was born! He was 8 lbs. 7 oz., 21 1/2 inches, and absolutely, perfectly beautiful! He is named after one of our bible heroes and his grandpa (Melinda's dad, Kelly Whiting). We are happy to share the news... thank you for your love, prayers, and support! We feel so blessed. Enjoy the pictures!



Love, your Higgins fam
