Trick or Treat Smell My Feet

Saturday was a busy day for our little Coop. She had the annual Pumpkin Carving at Aunt Karen's house and she had so much fun.... Aunt Staci bought them ones to make princess pumpkins but they were a little too advanced for the Zoeller's lol. So Gigi and Cooper made a regular Jack-O-Lantern with buck teeth.. it is super adorable and Cooper was a great helper!

On Saturday evening we were able to go to the South Bank neighborhoods Trick-or-Treat for all of the kids that live in the neighborhood , thanks to Auntie Tandi! She's the best! This is the first year that Cooper really got into the whole concept of ringing the door bells and picking out the houses she wanted to go to. She didn't even get scared once , I was very proud of her! Her robot costume was a hit and one girl at one of the last houses we went to even told Cooper that her costume "inspired her for next year"... ohhh teenagers!

Coop did great and didn't complain at all even though it was pretty chilly. By the end of the night though she was ready to be done and go help her favorite cousins Nick and Alex pass out candy to all the other kids in the neighborhood. She thought it was hilarious when the boys would scare the other kids and would laugh hysterically every time they spooked someone successfully!

Tonight is the last night of Halloween 2011, I  hope that every makes wonderful memories and remember its all about the kids having a good time!

#1 IN THE CLASS

COOPER WON HER HALLOWEEN COSTUME CONTEST AT HER SCHOOL!!! SHE WAS A HIT! HERE SHE IS ALL FINSIHED!!

Pink Princess Robot

So this year for Halloween I was brain storming what my little friend could be for Halloween.....I mean honestly its hard to top the list that she has already been...
1. One Eyed Pink Monster
2. Ballerina Hippo
3. Amazing Goth Fairy

So after much consideration I came up with the idea for  Pink Robot ... Cooper added the "Princess" idea. Cooper has a new "Robot" voice that she has been talking in for a few months and I thought it would be adorable for  her to dress as one for Halloween. I'm not really into the whole store bought costumes thing... we always end up having to add a ton of stuff to them to make them "Cooper Worthy" as I like to say. Here are a few pictures of her costume so far... its a work in progress, but I'm obsessed! I cant wait to see her in it!!!

A work in progress! Its not finished yet!

I HAD to try on the glasses and her antena's!

Pumpkin painting

So yesterday was a very busy day! Gigi and Cooper had to be at the CF clinic in downtown San Antonio at 7:45 AM! That means that they woke up around 5:00! It was her check up for her pneumonia. Everything looks great and she has even gained 2 lbs (which is a lot for a CF'er). Gigi was able to get Cooper to school in time to paint her pumpkin with her friends at school!

Cooper came and saw me at work! She is wearing her new Hello Kitty Halloween shirt!

Here is her pumpkin that she painted.

Fruit Kabob's

It was Coopers day to bring snacks for her Pre-K class today. After asking her and her thinking about it she finally decided that she wanted to take one of her favorite snacks, fresh fruit. So as soon as I got off of work last night I went to HEB and got her favorites...
1. Fresh cut pineapple
2.Purple Grapes (seedless)
3. Seedless Watermelon
4.Strawberries
5.Blueberries
Here she is practicing making a Kabob, so she could teach her friends in class how to do it. She LOVED it! It turned a normal snack into a fun and interesting project!  She had to really concentrate to get the fruit on the stick without poking herself or having the fruit fall apart! Once she had constructed a few of them she took two outside for a "refreshing snack for her Pappa and George (on of Pappa's best friends)
And of course she had to try one to make sure they were edible!

Concentrating

She was very proud of her finished Kabob's

Magic Man

This morning I went to my parents house to drop off our two westies for the day. As soon as I got there Cooper was already on the hunt to show me something fantastic. She hasnt gotten to spend as much time with me the past few weeks and its killing up both! She is my best friend after all :) Anyways like normal me, Gigi, Pappa and Cooper are all in their bathroom talking and laughing. Cooper told me that she wanted to show me her new magic tricks and that i needed to help her. She went and grabbed a pink bucket, two black stones and a step stool. She waved her hands around and told me that I had to close my eyes, both of them! (this is when the magic happens) She waves her hands around and yells wallie cazoo and then magically the black stones have disappeared! She is AMAZING! Im not sure where the wallie cazzo came from but its totally Cooper! Gotta love that little toot!

She's got Jokes!!!

So last night was a night of first... The entire Zoeller family that is in Texas right now ate dinner at Whataburger last night before Gigi left for a business trip to Omaha, Nebraska. Cooper had to bring to Schelly the dog with her all day ... according to GIGI that was a chore lol. Anyways as I was buckling my little friend into Gigi's car she said, "Da, I have a joke for you!". I was enamered that she even understood what a joke meant so I humored her. This is what she said.. "Knock Knock", "who's there", "Jack-N-The-Box" , "jack-in-the-box who", the punch line was "Jack-in-the-Box bracelets" .. Gigi and I werent laughing because we didnt really get it but Cooper was laughing hysterically! Gotta love 4 year old humor~!

Star of the WEEK!

Cooper is STAR of the WEEK at Pre-K this week! She is so very excited! I got to make her a board that holds 5 pictures of her and my mom wrote a special letter for her teachers to read to her. Mrs. Candi said she smiled the entire time that they read the letter! She also got to be "leader" for the day on Tuesday. This was a very important job. They had art and music class yesterday and she got to the lead the line to both of the different classrooms. Cooper said "Da, it was a very big JOB!". It was also Cooper's turn to bring Schelly the class stuffed dog home with her for the two nights. We have to write everything down that Schelly does while she is gone from school so Copper is making sure that she has plenty of fun! Schelly went to the veterinarians office, Wal-Mart, and WhatABurger yesterday... she was a very busy dog!

Here is the board that I made her. Yes, I did hand place all of the pearls and rhinestones on ALL of those C's.... GIGI helped hot glue everything down of course! Cooper loves being the STAR of the WEEK... being the center of attention definitely suits her lol

Star of the Week board!

Praise the Lord

Thank you everyone soooo much for all the good vibes/thoughts/and PRAYERS that were sent our and Coopers way! She was released from the Hospital on Friday around 4:45 PM. The doctor totally surprised us! I went up to take her and my mother lunch and when he walked in he asked if we wanted to go home that day... we were totally surprised and grateful! Cooper didn't want to take her decorations down or her PIC line out, but after 3 of us hold her down to get it out,  we were ready to go! It only took 3 trips to the car with a cart full of suitcases etc to get the room emptied out... my mom was in my parents Mini Cooper so it was a good thing that I had come up! My FX 35 was packed to the roof but Cooper was soo excited to get home and see her puppies! She only lasted about 5 minutes in my car before she passed out but it was a great day! The Lord is good! Thanks again everyone!

Thank you OAKWOOD BAPTIST!

Coopers Pre-K class sent her flowers today! It was SOOOOO sweet and much appreciated! She was so excited because she has missed her friends at school sooo much! She has been "studying" at the hospital so that when she gets back to the classroom she isn't behind lol

Practicing writing her letters

The flowers were shaped like a little westie puppy! Which is too perfect because Cooper thinks that my little westie girl Lexi Lu Lu is her dog! Thank yo sooo much to her class and teachers for thinking of Cooper! It meant so much to her and to our family! Keep the prayers coming! It looks like she will be coming home on SATURDAY!! WOHOOOOO!!!!

Thank  you !!!

She loves her flowers!
