[quote=Anonymous]I feel you, OP. The young toddler age was the toughest for me too (also have boys). It’s like everyone thinks it should be smooth sailing after the newborn/baby craziness but before the “terrible 2’s/3’s” and it’s NOT! We had some good times at that age but also lots of struggles. My oldest was a good and FAST walker/runner at an early age. As soon as he was out of his car seat he’d take off. So, it was the stroller for us basically everywhere plus me following him around extremely closely. Then they don’t have the attention span for any activities, and they really can’t communicate with words so it’s just constant fuss and redirecting. Rest assured, most everyone who’s had a kid like yours and mine has experienced a turnaround starting at around age 2. 2 years old was a really good time for my oldest  and for me too (my youngest is just a little younger than yours now so I know what’s coming up lol). I feel that’s why every sibling set seems to be a bit less than 3 years apart in age, because the newly 2 year olds are actually pretty easy in comparison to the 1-2 year olds! Hang in there!
