Just be glad it didn't go PEW when you dropped it! *giggled* What kinda soda is it?

It's Fizz. It's very fizzy, apparently. I think it's a cola-flavour drink. ^.^

Nice! ^.^

Cans is hard to open so you oughtn't feel too bad. *hugs*

That said, I can't help but wonder whether Zee-Zee will confess to stealing the pop or let Mommy & Daddy assume that he was involved in yet another potty-related mishap (with predictable consequences)...

On his shirt? That'd be some accident.

It's hard to think of a good way to explain this without sounding like I was doing something I shouldn't... ^.^

Heheh Oooo soda! I like Soda! It's good and makes ya extra peppy and lotsa energy but kinda soggy fast but that's Ok cuz weeeee!!! XD Don't worry You'll get the hang of it maybe take a step back and ask a grown up next time and use a straw then your practically doing it like the big boys.

*bounces* Yeah! A curly straw! That makes drinks taste better! And makes them easier to drink, too! C'mon, let's go ask the grown-ups to give us some soda and not tell them I had some already! *scampers around hyperactively as the soda kicks in*

Cans are harder than a proper tumbler.

Uh-huh, why do they make them like that? Ooh, I know, it's so that only clever people can drink outta them without spilling! Just wait, next time I'll get it right! ^.^

than mom and dad come in with a cam. get a pic of you. take away the can and tell you to small for soda right now. LOL

*stamps foot* Am not too small! I'm a big squirrel!

*(mommy takes another photo)*

Stop doing that! *pouts*

Somebody is going to need a new diaper later after drinking most of that soda. Any way what a cute picture of you Zee Zee.

Pull-ups! Not diapers! And I don't go pee-pee in my... eep! *crosses legs*

*giggles* Ya gonna be all hyper after drinking it anyway. X3

Just like a squirrel should be! *bounces around and tries to climb the walls*

*giggles* Uh huhs, like a certain munk we know. ^^

Aww! Hey it's tough to master so don't sweat it! You'll be guzzling down canned drinks like a champ in no time!

Uh-huh, just gotta practice a bit more! Let's get some more cans! And be sneaky so the grown-ups don't notice! ^.^

Good plan! Off to the kitchen! *points a finger dramatically towards the kitchen like a superhero about to embark on his quest*

Silly Squirrel.

I'm not silly! I'm clever! I can drink a big-boy drink, see! ^.^

*sees the spilled soda* i dun think you're clever yet, Zee-Zee

<LoL!> Yet another cute tale from the master of youthful memories! :)

The way you wrote this makes it so animated. I didn't quite understand the picture at first. However, after reading Zee-Zee's efforts at Big Kid, it now is clear as day how this happened. Most certainly mum and dad will have something to say about this. Something about, "Go be a Big Boy and change your clothes." sounds like one statement that is sure to be heard. :)

<LoL!> I really love how believable your writing on youthful times is. Makes me smile.

*giggle* Thanks, Yosh! *happy hugs*

And yep, sometimes your first try at being a big boy doesn't quite work out, but practice makes perfect! And being a big boy and getting changed by himself is a real treat for Zee-Zee! ^.^

It fizzes less if you don't drop it before opening. If you do, you should get another one from the fridge and tell someone which one you dropped so they know not to open it until it's calmed down. When I have trouble opening something I usually sit down and hold it close to the floor so if it slips out of my hands it won't fall very far. This is especially important for glass jars! (How I learned this is a long but predictable story. :3)

*giggle* Lotsa good advice! I just hope I remember it next time... ^.^

Why, it's sooo simple... you see, you just *Opens can of pop, and sprays all over my new tie dye shirt* erm... you didn't just see that.

lol... okay, maybe It's not simple after all.


Let's touch base with a true expert on this sort of thing...

...well.. you will get the hang of it sooner or later.. soon enough you can crush the can on your head like me buddy *chuckles handing you a cloth*

*wipes the spilled fizzy stuff* I look like a big boy with the can, right? ^.^

yes you certainly do

Maybe you can try canned soda after you get a handle on putting the straw into the Capri-Sun and the juice boxes.

Those are really tricky too! But I've got clever little squirrel fingers, so I'm good with things like that! ^.^
