We started this beautiful sunny and seventies  day at <a href=\"http:\/\/rocwiki.org\/Public_Market\">Rochester&#8217;s Public Market<\/a>.  Even though most of Rochester had the same idea, we had a great time buying all kinds of fresh, locally-grown fruits and veggies: grapes, blackberries, apples, tomatoes, carrots, cucumbers, rhubarb, cherries, brocoli and some homemade bread and wheat rolls.   You taste-tested many of these things as we walked! : )  <\/p>\n<p>After we got home, you and Daddy headed out to your <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gymboreeclasses.com\/b2c\/customer\/home.jsp\">Gymboree class<\/a>.  I think because it was both Memorial Day weekend as well as a beautiful day, you had the WHOLE place to yourself.  You helped throw the parachute up and down with Daddy and the teacher. <\/p>\n<p>After a 1.5 hr nap, we headed out to our first family trip to<a href=\"http:\/\/www.senecazoo.org\/\"> Seneca Park Zoo<\/a>.    We saw leopards, owls, eagles, wallabees, wolves, an ocelot, lizards, polar bears, tigars, cougars, monkeys, a rhino and penguins&#8230; just to name a few.  Your face  as you watched these amazing creatures was priceless!!  It could be best described as &#8220;AWE.&#8221;<br \/>\n<img src='http:\/\/www.littleraz.org\/wp-photos\/zooawe.jpg' alt='zoo awe' \/><br \/>\n<img src='http:\/\/www.littleraz.org\/wp-photos\/zoorhino.jpg' alt='zoo rhino' \/><br \/>\n<img src='http:\/\/www.littleraz.org\/wp-photos\/zooelephants1.jpg' alt='zoo elephants' \/><\/p>\n<p>With huge eyes and a growing smile, you watched as the tiger eat a HUGE piece of meat.  The elephants were definitely a hit with you, but hands down, your favorite animal was the sea lion.<br \/>\n<img src='http:\/\/www.littleraz.org\/wp-photos\/zoosealion2.jpg' alt='zoo sea lion' \/><br \/>\n<img src='http:\/\/www.littleraz.org\/wp-photos\/zoosealion3.jpg' alt='zoo sea lion3' \/><br \/>\nYou watched it under water in a gallery for a long time.  It would swim RIGHT by you and make you jump, and after you realized what had happened, you would giggle.  We kept trying to entice you away to see other animals, but you did not want to leave.<\/p>\n<p><img src='http:\/\/www.littleraz.org\/wp-photos\/zooalligators.jpg' alt='zoo alligators' \/><br \/>\n<img src='http:\/\/www.littleraz.org\/wp-photos\/zooleopard.jpg' alt='zoo leopard' \/><br \/>\n<img src='http:\/\/www.littleraz.org\/wp-photos\/zoopenguins.jpg' alt='zoo penguins' \/><\/p>\n<p>We had some snacks before we left and then headed for a quick shopping trip.  After that, we ate out at a Red Robin.  By the time we drove home, we were all POOPED!<br \/>\n<img src='http:\/\/www.littleraz.org\/wp-photos\/zoosnack.jpg' alt='zoo snack' \/><\/p>\n<p>Happy Dreams Baby Girl!
