Yuckfinger. Sorry Kiddo. (If you're not Hale's doctor, don't look, because ICK.)

Just a picture of Hale's finger, which had a hangnail go infected and we're tying to figure out if we need to get to the doctor. This is the easiest way we can figure to get the picture to her. Nothing to see here.

Lucky Bear

Our friend Flynn gave Hale his childhood bear, who's now FlynnBear, and one of Hale's main homies. He fell asleep holding FlynnBear's hand last night. Dreamy.

Just a blast of Hale. (All in Good Fun)

No occasion, just a slew of pictures from enjoying being Hale's parents is all. We love you.

My Hero!

Classic Benson family schtick.

KINDERGARTEN!

Hale and Asher walked to school together this morning. Oil and water, these boys, in the sweetest/saltiest way.

One, two, three, regular face!

Desky.

Trying Desky on for size.

Mommy and Daddy got some good kisses this morning. 

Graduation Day!

Hale's graduated from his super sweet preschool, the Cedar House. (He'll still be going over the summer, and maybe even for after-care next year after he starts Kindergarten at Pathfinder.)

Here are some pictures from the potluck party yesterday. They might not load in in order, but you get the idea. As always, click to embiggen.

And if you know anyone who's looking for an amazing preschool, and who's within reasonable distance of W. Seattle, put em in touch. Cedar House is GREAT.
