Strawberry season is here... What could be better than that...

We made an impromptu decision Saturday morning to go strawberry picking. We went to our favorite farm (Homestead Farm) in Poolesville, MD to hunt down some delicious strawberries. I can't believe it's been over a month since my last post so here's a quick update on Max as well. His eczema got really really bad for a while and we went to see an allergist and found out that Max is allergic to egg whites and nuts. So since then his skin has been getting soooooooo much better. His latest favorite food are cucumbers and tomatoes. He's speaking a few words, but he sure does understand a whole lot. He's really good at pointing to what he wants. He's really into his Little Tike's basketball hoop and he's been practicing how to jump. Other than that, he'll be 18 months on June 13th.


"Come on everybody, let's go pick go pick some strawberries!"


"Moo" Moo" "Hey I'm talking to you..."

Max chewing on a straw and trying to fit in, not quite the real thing but he's a city boy, he doesn't know any better.

A perfect day to be outdoors.

Here we go...!!!

And... let the strawberry buffet begin.

Munch munch munch munch....

Another patch victim to Strawberrizilla

"I will eat YOU ALL!!! Muahhhahahahahah!"

Once in a while he stopped to help mommy







"mmm.... ahhh... the sweet aroma of sun ripe strawberries..."

"You look delicious!"
"Time to go back now, I hope the ride isn't too bumpy, otherwise I'll be serving up a jar of strawberry jam..."

A hard days work pays off.
