I don't know what exactly that stuff is made out off but its tough. Had two subcontractors from the store come by and it took them about 6 hours to do 20 by 20 feet including molding and leveling, and they were pros.
You literally, just described my house - complete with the 2 year old.

The luan that I pulled up was for the vinyl floor that was originally inside the door - I was a bit hesitant to put the laminate floor there - but it would have looked funny leaving it. I'm glad to hear it's holding up for you. And had I encountered the original flooring contractor last night, I would have stapled him to the floor....it was horrific pulling that stuff off. The staple pattern was literally at 2.5" on center, each direction.....somebody was quite staple happy and it wasn't fun to pull that crap off (and hammer the staples back in).
