Same. My daughter is a week shy of 18 months, and has fully progressed past the stage of saying YES! to everything excitedly. Now it’s noooo for everything. Makes putting her in the car seat in the crowded grocery store parking lot a nice treat.

Mine is 21 months. She is almost all day just going going going! She grabs my shirt to get me to stand up and go wherever she wants to go. Her new thing is she likes hanging out in her room but only if mom or dad also are in there with her. It's a lot of fun right now but a lot.
My daughter just learned no a week or 2 ago. Hate it. Much preferred the Lil Jon era
Lol... Yeah it's not very cash money is it.
Mines the same age, doing the same thing xD. She's looking for some control. I usually give her the illusion of control by giving her two options, don't want to get dressed? "Would you like to wear your yellow dress or your red dress today?" Same with food, works for me.
I'm gonna try that tomorrow. Especially with food. She has been a mess trying to get her to eat lately. She was a late walker, didn't start walking till 19 months and almost like a light switch once she started walking. Eating wasn't in the priority anymore. It's going wherever and doing whatever!
Yes, 100% its like "I have freedom now" I can walk! I can sorta express myself!
