I would leave travelling with sucha young child until he or she was a little older - 18 months to two years - and even then not tackle anything too ambitious.
You will probably need to allow time for a child to do things he or she wants to, and not try and force the pace too much. Kids tend to get bored sitting in a vehicle all day and whilst you may be having an absolute blast crossing the desert they are not. If they're not happy, pretty soon you aren't happy.
Having said that, the Arabs love children and you will find that having small children with you may open doors that otherwise would remain firmly shut.
Good luck,
