Paint and Play-Doh Please!

This morning was an artistic one. After breakfast, we went to Jonah's room and he pointed at the play-doh, wanting to play with it. He wasn't sure what to call it, but as soon as I named it for him, he repeated, "Pay doh!" We rolled it, cut out stars ("dah") and had a lot of fun, even when Jonah rubbed it in his hair when he was "all-done!"
Immediately following this, he asked for "paint!" so we pulled out the finger paints and he went to it. He must be getting ready for the art class we signed him up for next week.
His language has grown tremendously over the past month.
He now has mini sentences like these:
"No, mommy" (all time favorite)
"No more cereal" (or oatmeal or whatever he's eating).
"Paint house" (saw people on TV painting a house)
"Park 'Neek" (we played at the park with his friend Monique)
