Zac is at such an exhausting age, I love it when they are walking and talking - but as long as their eyes are open they are a liability to themselves and hence there is no rest for you or your wife.
When my boys were little we were always in a park and collecting leaves and sticks and stones - the house was always in chaos! There will never be enough hours in the day for parents of toddlers - just do what makes you and your family happy and don't worry about anything else or what anyone else thinks.
PS and remember to stay in touch!
Thanks @mirriek Yeah, I am happy you posted again. I always keep a lookout for your posts since I like commenting to say hi.
You are right about toddlers being a danger to themselves. Baby Zac wants to put a lot of things in his mouth so we need to take things away from him that don't belong there. He is also willing to fall down if we don't catch him and prevent him from falling. He can't walk completely by himself yet but always cries for us to help him walk.
