Yes it is probably my two's favourite veg. They eat them raw and whole or cooked. They love them out of a slow cooked casserole/stew but will eat them steamed too. I do find though that if they are cooked they like them well done not firm like DH and I would eat them.

I just do canned cooked carrots for now because it's quicker and that way if he refuses a mess of carrots doesn't go to waste.. But most of the time he popps them in his mouth like candy he loves them. Carrots, peas, beats, and avocado are on rotation here.

Yes both boys love them.  I'm not a huge fan of cooked carrots unless it's with a roast or something so we mainly have them raw.  We made a big deal out of how long they 'crunched' when they bit into them when they were younger and they loved it!

Audrey will eat cooked carrots and have a go at raw ones but I don't know if it is teething or what but she won't swallow them. She chews them up and spits them out.
