My 11mo is so chaotic

For context we also have a 4 year old, who by all accounts was a very chilled baby/easy toddler until she hit 2.5 and hit her “terrible twos”. My 11mo boy has been a super difficult baby since birth, he hated everything as a baby (bless him I actually think he was super uncomfortable/colicky) - the pram, the car, the bath… just hated being a baby!

Thankfully now at 11 months he’s very happy but he’s like a tornado. He’s been crawling since 7 months and does. not. stop. He is constantly finding ways to challenge me 😅. As soon as a door opens, or the stair-gate, he literally sprint-crawls to get through it. If he shouldn’t touch it then best believe he’s touching it. If it’s on the floor then two seconds later it’ll be in his mouth - he eats EVERYTHING he can get his hands on… except what I put on his plate of course! He still wakes every 1-2 hours at night and he also hates being held or being contained in his high chair.

Today alone he poured out a cup of tea (that I stupidly left half-drunk on the side table), almost did the same with my drink at lunch, kicked the tray off of his mama’s & papa’s bug chair and escaped and had to touch every single thing his big sister laid her eyes on. We usually get out of the house a lot more (because it’s easier!) but big sis isn’t well so we’ve been stuck here for a couple of days.

Has anyone else had a baby like this?! When does it get easier? He’s hilarious and so cheeky, but I am so exhausted 🫣.
