What does my boy want to do on a sunny afternoon in the city? Well, he hops the water taxi over to Granville Island and buys a basket of locally grown strawberries. He brings them back home and as he gets closer he pauses and takes off his shirt, as not to get it dirty with juicy berry stains. Then he nibbles a berry and keeps on nibbling because they are delicious.
Then he stops and stands and squats, and eats a dozen or so red delicious berries right there in the park.
After all that, he is rather curious if dogs like strawberries as must as he does? Do dogs like strawberries? This one doesn't but she gave it a good sniff just in case.
Looking for something?
Well, Hello There!
Mama in the City since 2008 and blogging since 2009!
My first apartment baby is now a full on boy and we struggle with finding space in our condo for his growing toy collection. I'm also a new mum to our second apartment baby, born January 13, 2012!
I have a husband who is an excellent cook and takes amazing photos. I work as a labor and delivery nurse and really love the work that I do and gave birth to baby #2 at my work place.
I use this space to write about my family and to share my passion about breastfeeding, birth and parenting. I have a fantastic purse collection and have loved watching it grow, mostly lovely gifts over the years from my husband. I currently have a closet full of purses that are too small or impractical to fit a diaper or sippy cup in, and so they are on hold for future years.
Have a question or a comment? Email me! I also love to read comments left on posts, so feel free to leave me a note!

June 6, 2011 at 3:30 PMJust an FYI, a lot of dogs are allergic to strawberries! Good thing that lovely dog doesn't like them! Ben is adorable for wanting to share, though!
June 15, 2011 at 12:46 PMOops, my bad! Only some dogs are, like some humans are, I guess. Sorry for the error
