Is it normal to find your toddler really annoying?

I really love my child. He’s 2.5 years old. But dear god I swear he is so annoying. 🙈

He is constantly on fire, he wakes up and is full of energy until he goes back to bed. He doesn’t really nap anymore and he fights me on everything. Wanting to change his diaper? A screaming fit. Wash his hands? Rolling around on the floor crying. Didn’t cut his chicken right? Another temper tantrum. He doesn’t listen, he won’t sit in time out, he won’t play with me without throwing toys at my head. Like I am so annoyed and always on edge with him. Is this normal?

Just wanna preface and say I have a degree in child psychology! But honestly I cannot get a grip on my own child. He confuses me.
