toddler not liking changes

DS is almost 2 and he hates when material things change. He is ok with environmental changes, routine changes, etc but cant handle things like a new cup.

Here are a few things that happened recently that make me wonder whats going on...

We got him new cups - the same brand/type as his current cups, but a new pattern since they dont make the same ones anymore. He refuses to drink from it

we put on a pair of new socks...they had a different grippy pattern on the bottom than his current socks. He noticed and kept saying "no like, no like", but I distracted him and got them on him and put his shoes on. I thought i was in the clear, but a few minutes later, he started carrying on, pulled off his shoes and socks, and went to his draw and took out other socks to put on.

yesterday I was doing laundry so I washed his pillow case and put a new one on for his nap time. He threw a tantrum because it wasnt his normal pillow case. Eventually he took his nap...but he threw his pillow out of the crib and slept without it.

im guessing (hoping) this is normal toddler behavior; although I never experienced it with DD
Has anyone else gone through this and have any tips or want to share how long it lasts?

Sounds normal.

I advise a nice glass of something strong after he goes to sleep. And maybe at nap time too if needed. Lol

Just wait till the F'ing threes.

Sorry, it's hard no real advice. Mine change daily what they care about so I will say hang in there
