Mother's day

Our new apartment has a strawberry farm less than 1/2 a mile from it. It's small but Wei Yan suggested we do this for Mother's day. Max did really well and happily obliged my choice of berries for Max to "pick" and put in his basket. Only $1.40/lb so I might be stopping by again since it's so close when I am in the mood for some fresh strawberries. They weren't as good as some of the ones I've had in California, but vine ripe vs. stuff in the store was a nice thing.

That afternoon after nap, Max ate about a pound of strawberries. After a few of Max's recent idea to eat the outsides of all the strawberries and leave a whitish slobbery mess, I figured out that if I cut them in 1/2 or 1/3s then he'll eat the whole thing (yay!)

Happy Birthday to Me!

Max likes singing "Happy Birthday" but right now it's "Happy Birthday to we" - or me most of the time. He did sing Happy Bithday to mommy though, so he knows when it counts. Here is us at the Pit in downtown Raleigh - we didn't get a group photo of the whole group, but I didn't forget all who came out to help me celebrate this year.
