Toddlers are great fun! It's so awesome watching them turn into little people . Neither of my boys have been big tantrum throwers. If they ever did/do throw one it is usually because they are tired, hungry or teething. I just ignore the tantrums and they end pretty quickly LOL!

A whole new world opens up once they become toddlers, they learn to talk with you, play with you, cuddle you. They are independent and you can go out and do a lot more than you could when they were babies.

The transition is so unnoticeable too, so you cope just fine. It's not like they wake up one day as a toddler that you know nothing about! You learn along with them
