Combine cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk in a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.  Add pudding mixes and milk; continue mixing on low for 4 - 5 minutes or until mixture starts to thicken.  Fold in 2 cups cool whip until smooth.

Pour half of cream cheese mixture over graham crackers.  Arrange a single layer of strawberries over the cream cheese mixture.  Sprinkle with 1/2 cup chopped walnuts.  Add another layer of graham crackers, and top with another layer of cream cheese mixture.   Top cream cheese mixture with the rest of the strawberries.
