From personal experience, it gets good at around six months, and even better just before a year. Judging by the number of siblings I see spaced 18 months apart, I think others agree.
However, there is another difficult period around 2-3 where they rebel against your authority, and it is a constant battle to reassert control. On one hand, they have more motivation, more time, more energy, and fewer distractions. On the other hand, it's usually 2 vs. 1, and you control the food and entertainment.

Just about to hit 3 months, I thought it was supposed to get better by now!
