Moving is a big life stressor. Not only for the kids, but for you and your dh, and the kids sense that. I agree with SouthTxPrincess. Be consistent with discipline. Also routine is really helpful, especially if it includes a playdate so they can get some energy out and make new friends.
Check out meetup.com for playgroups in your area....see if getting the kids out of the house for a while will help their behavior.
A question for those who have kids close in age..
When was your due date and when did you give birth?
