Yesterday we went shopping for some scoops for a vacation bible school craft. George decided he liked the word scoop and would
yell it out as we went down the aisles. "Scoop! Scoop!" But I don't think he associate the word with the actual object
as kept getting mad at me when I'd hand him the scoops that we found. He didn't want those - he wanted whatever it was he
thought a scoop was (and I don't know what it was he was imagining a scoop to be). However, today he did better with the words and association. We were in another store running errands and he saw the kitchen aisle. He immediately started yelling "Scoop!" I said, "Yes, there are scoops here" and showed him one and he was much happier. At church we pulled out the ones that we'd purchased yesterday and I asked him what they were. He immediately smiled and said "Scoop!" before toddling off.
