Mom and Dad said we were going to the Butterfly Pavilion today to see if Zoe would eat the butterflies.

But I fell asleep in the car, and when I woke up, well, you can guess where we were.

Does this look like a butterfly to you?

No. Not even a little.

It worked out OK because I got to see FOUR sea lions swimming.

I also got to hear the tiger ROAR for the first time.

Still, though, I have no idea if Zoe eats butterflies.

Sigh.

Oh, hello.

A pleasure to see you today, I'm sure.

Something very exciting happened today.

It's true.

I GOT HUNGRY FOR SOCKS.

I was all "GIVE ME SOCKS TO EAT! ROAR!"

Socks just taste really good.

Om nom nom nom nom.

This is my sock-eatin' face.

Hmm. I don't know what came over me there.

Mom and Dad got out the Poor Man's Backdrop! Time to have my first bite of food!

Hm. Riley said rice cereal is yucky, but I could get used to this. I think the trick is ...

... to eat it like you mean it!

Ba ha ha ha ha!

Trough me!

That's good paste right there.

I learned this move from Riley herself.

Enough of this. Gimme the spoon.

There you have it, folks! I hope you enjoyed my first rice cereal as much as I did. Thanks, and come again.

We went to the farmers' market in Boulder this morning. Apparently farmers grow pupusas y empanadas. That's what Mom and Dad got.

Wanna try?

Y tu?

Then we took a walk down the creek path to a playground.

Zoe tagged along.

She's not old enough for empanadas, but she was old enough to try a swing for the first time today.

I think she liked it.

No, seriously.

She didn't want to be too obvious about it, so she tried to strike a casual pose.

This is Zoe we're talking about, though.

I got tired of that kid stuff and decided to check out the creek.

Some people were fishing ...

... but they weren't going for Rileys today.

Phew!
