Strawberries- YUM!

Last year Ryan and I planted some strawberry plants in our backyard. There were a few tiny fruits last year, but nothing to brag about. This year, we have TONS! Today we went out for our 3rd harvest, and picked another Tupperware container full!

Jillian had not tried strawberries yet ('they' suggest waiting til your child is a year old in case of allergies) so we thought her first experience could be with our own home grown, oh-so organic, pesticide free berries.

The verdict? She LOVED them!

P.S.- When I was not looking, she even ate the stem part. Oops! And, as you will notice from the photos below, she is quite a messy mess maker. Oh well- it's all a part of the fun, right?!
