Default 2 yr old driving me crazy

My 2 yr old has been pretty easy to manage til now. Over the past few weeks he started doin new annoying things and cant seem to get him to stop. Things like evertime iturn around the vents are no longer where they belong but piled up on the floor, im going to screw them down. He never used to mess with anything on my computer desk now he cant get enough of it i would move it in my room but he might sneak up to mess with it. He climbed before but now he lives for climbing i had to put up anything that he could climb on to get to the sink, refrigerator, the tv. After i clean my house it looks like a tornado went thru it just hours later, having trouble keeping up with him. I also have a 7 mth old too. Any advice? I thought the terrible 2's started at age 2 not almost 3.

I spoke too soon. I laid him down for his nap and turned on the fan and it made this awful racket. I tought it was broken until i saw 3 hotwheel cars in there. How in the world did he get them in there. I had to take the screws out to get them out.

From my experience, it's not the terrible twos it's the terrible threes. It's then that the tantrums started because they want to do so muc themselves but can't because they are only 3. It sounds to me like your son is very curious and likes to explore. That's a good thing! It will drive you nuts, but it's a good thing for him. LOL
You will just have to do preventative things like screwing the vents down and finding ways to limit where he can climb. At the same time, you find places and ways that it is ok to climb and explore. Redirect and show him what is ok and safe to do.

Good luck!
