If you have a toddler and an older child...
How does your poor older child get to do anything?! Lol
My 3.5 yr old is into coloring nicely, playing with his toys, putting together puzzles, building stuff with Legos or any blocks, playing games like Candy Land, putting a parade together with his little people, action figures or any animals he has.... Then there's my 17 month old. All he does is want to destroy anything my 3 yr old does. I find it funny. But my older DS doesn't so much. He tries to dicipline his little brother, but if doesn't work. They are total opposites.
One neatly puts things together and the other finds it fun to knock things down. They bath together and my older lines up his bath toys while the little one splashes and creates chaos.
Anyone else have a similiar household? They do love each other very much and find them play nicely too, but more times wrestling. My 3 yr old likes to try and pick up his little brother and move him to another spot away from his toys. Doesn't work so well. Lol

Yes - it happens all the time with my 9 month old and 3 year old. DS 1 will go and drag the jumperoo or walker across the living room to have me put the little one in it so he can play in peace (but, the baby wants very little to do wtih either one - he'd rather bother his brother).

Re: If you have a toddler and an older child...
I'm going through this but the little one isn't a toddler....she a very curious, newly crawling 7 month old! lol. She gets into everything her sister is playing with and will even take a piece of what DD1 is playing with and crawl away with it! 
I too find it hilarious. DD1...not so much.

Oh DS1 refuses to bathe with DS2 because he messes up his toys and splashes like a maniac. When they did - he would be like mommy, can you take him out?

My 2.5 yo toddler harasses and bugs everyone in this house My 4 yo gets upset with him and gets physical ( pushing and hitting) when he is really bothering him.
He will grab something and run. Then the older one will chase him, and wrestle it away. My little guy is tough and can handle himself
