Toddler Gifted - What to do?

I am not bragging (and my husband has administered IQ tests, so trust me, we know). Actually, I am worn out. He's so full of energy and questions that I can't keep up. And its just one more responsibility of raising him other people don't have. He is high maintenance. Don't get me wrong, we have fun together, I just happen to be ready for bed around lunch time ;).

But, I know he will have problems no matter what I do! If I send him to a regular school, he will become bored. If he's in gifted programs, he'll get labeled. We lose no matter what. What's the inbetween? I had a friend talk about regular school and regular programs with a tutor. What do you think about that? If you've been through this, what have you done to balance it out? Its also about time for preschool, so what should I be thinking about here? Are there Montessori preschools?

I know everyone has their problems, but mine is one I hadn't anticipated! Thanks for your ears and your thoughts.
