Ezra and Simon are both brilliant too but the other kids deserve as much if not more attention all fantastic such a lovely family but everyone has to be a part to complete it all the love to the family x
I showed my 8 year old the lighthouse view i gotta get him there we are down south all the time and in march was the 1st time we've been to Florida and i have no idea why ,we've been to cape Henry lighthouse Virginia beach he loved it
On the definition of the word “toddler”. I have noticed that both Huggies pull-ups and Pampers Easy Ups go up to size 5T-6T. That means that a five or six-year old in the 50th percentile would still be able to wear them if needed. That also means (it seems to me) that some kids might technically still be toddlers (size-wise and developmentally) until age five or even six. Also in the (original Cartoon Network) Ben 10 series episode “Don’t Drink the Water” where Ben regressed to age four from age ten he was listed in the credits as “Toddler Ben”. I think that was back in the mid-2000s. In that episode Ben and his grandfather became younger after being splashed with water from the Fountain of Youth. That means that even now Simon could still technically be considered a toddler even though he just restarted school and seems to be making quite a bit of progress. I would say that he’s definitely in the process of becoming a big kid. For example he’s been pretty much daytime trained since some time last Fall. And he’s beginning to be able to verbalize his emotions. I was about nine or ten before I could do that. By the criteria I’m using here (roughly the same criteria my family used) I was pretty much a toddler developmentally until I was about nine or ten years old. My ability to tell someone verbally that I was in physical pain started around age six. Doing the same for emotions came three to four years later (probably because I was still level two at that point (I’m currently level one)). This delay in combination with sensory sensitivities is why I sometimes had meltdowns (usually in public). This happened less often when I was able to verbalize how I was feeling but it would still sometimes happen from time to time. All of this being said it’s important to not treat Simon like a younger toddler or a baby in order to keep him developmentally on track (especially in terms of speech and toilet training (Don’t worry if some daytime accidents might happen here and there, that’s pretty normal at age four or even five (especially when his level one autism is taken into account. As long as you keep him in regular underwear (preferably colored underwear, so he won’t get underwear and diapers mixed up) after breakfast each day and have him clean up (or at least assist with the cleanup) after any avoidable accidents that might occur he should stay pretty much on track.)). Also, it’s good to see that he’s learning how to do chores and clean up spills and the like. I think I was in kindergarten at age six when I learned how to do that with either bath towels or paper towels. I remembered that Ben 10 episode because it took place in Saint Augustine, Florida which is probably not that far (in the scheme of things) from where this video was filmed.
It’s good to see that Marie is feeling nervous here (even though I can tell you from experience that feeling nervous is not fun). The good thing about it is that her sense of danger is developing. She seems to be more aware of danger now than she was at that one national park with a cliff (I forget which one). It looks like I was fortunately wrong about depression before (I was probably thinking too much of my own experiences growing up at that moment (I technically have a mild form of depression that was found on psychological testing when I was in high school (either Freshman or Sophomore year, I forget which one) but I don’t need any medication for it because it’s just mild enough for me to not require it.)). She seems to be in the clear in that regard. Most of the time she seems to be pretty happy. Marie’s social skills and sense of danger seem to be coming along so she’s probably neurotypical. Even so, if you happen to see any delays in this area compared to her peers you might want to have her evaluated for autism anyway. There’s always the off chance that she could be level one like Simon (who she usually seems to understand and get along with very well). My sister is level one and she was usually so good at masking when she was growing up that she was thirteen or fourteen when she was finally diagnosed and she missed out on years of support services that might have helped her with communication and job-related skills (for example).
I’ve read that a lot of kids (both autistic and neurotypical) find it calming to cuddle the way that Simon does here (especially before the age of about two or three). Even if Simon was never breast fed (I wasn’t either) the human nervous system at that age has a hard-wired response (especially in the subcortical brain areas) in which it is likely that the individual thinks on some some level that he or she is about to be fed (or perhaps more likely has just been fed) and finds it calming and therefore is able to nap/sleep fairly easily.
Shish kebabs is my favorite one. Will I love that food in the room my mom used to always do the Italian dressing but she can get the packets and should make it a little stronger because we’d loved it and everyone wanted mushrooms like none of my sister did my brother you know a lot of them didn’t in them. No one likes mushrooms around here. I love them and pineapple, I will never think of putting pineapple on shish kebab. My mother would love that we loved shish kebab and pineapple but mushrooms. I loved mushrooms at a young age everyone’s like oh my God how can you eat a mushroom pizza but I ate that whole large high mushroom pizza because I love mushrooms so much it was probably the first time I ate them. They said I used to eat a lot of crazy stuff when I was little that they would never eat but they tried it in and it turned out too crazy bought it Pineapples good idea we used to do we make like a sweet-and-sour my mom got the recipe from one of friends and it was one. It’s one of my favorites I had to make it it was made out of Kabah C like a Hillshire farms kielbasa, and it was sweet and sour and you make it just like it is And what I love I love that that’s my thing I am not a sweet person. I don’t like you don’t like I don’t want to sweets that much. Plus I can’t eat them right now but I was so good with cherries. Yeah, it was so good male debate was apricot jam, and I love the pineapple so much in them there’s some really good recipes. My mom got from a friend they were easy too but shish kebabs always one of my favorites we’d eat do we mostly did chicken because I love chicken chickens, my favorite and once in a while we do steak but I just got a lamb kebab at a restaurant and I will probably do lamb And I love lamb I used to love the rattle and my grandmother used Meg especially with the grape jelly and loved it. They said I couldn’t stop eating it especially jelly. Everyone when we went to Jamaica gutter it was all they had to get the hottest noodles that they couldn’t eat, did it was like Thai food and we love Thai food and yeah I can eat and we can eat but I wanna enjoy my food. If I can’t eat it it’s gonna not be fun and I mean everything was Compton you know it was all exclusive but with my sister got married at all it was all competitive I was like Nami and I won the lamb chops. They were a little like lollipops and they’re so good, so much good food in Jamaica only thing that the Buffay the lobsters went so fast we did not get them. None of us got a lobster and we’re all mad and one is lobster because it was part of Eden you know bean package but yeah everyone wants the lobster but I really have a lobster in May and I want, the grouper the group was very good group is delicious but shortly after that I had I think it was a litchi. I never had it. I was wondering what kind of fruit it was it was very good but I was allergic to it and my feet swelled so I missed most of the day and I was it wasn’t I was mad, but they also think it was because of all the salt in I love these fish sandwiches so much. I don’t know what kind of fish it was but they were free. They were so good. It was like a fast food little fast food stand and that’s all I got it. I was so good sandwiches I ate so many yeah they were a little salty, but the fish was so good in the season perfectly I kind of loosen up on season now because I can’t eat it and are used to make you know if I can season son strong put in a different I cook my kids or someone else’s who didn’t want that strong seasoning but I used to also season a lot and then my meat a lot in tenderize it are used to meet you meet tenderizer but it’s pretty much salt salt and I can’t do salt and I would like to Salt Lake settle for a couple things like a German pretzel any I love pretzels And plain pizza when it’s cold when it’s hot here I can eat it you know why everyone always thought I was weird because I used to dab my pizza with a napkin because I don’t want to grease. My parents told me you know you don’t need that much degrees so that’s it, everyone thought that was odd like my friends a principal at a pizza party that we were allowed to have one time thought that was the oddest thing that I dab my pizza with a napkin and that’s probably one of the reasons why I never got pimples. Would I get a few of them but they were never bad I’m never really gotten acne you know like I usually get on my back a lot and that’s probably what you know from itching, I don’t know why I was so oily I was always clean. I was always in the shower with swimming but I sweat a lot. I don’t know if you know that was the case yeah mushrooms was funny thing when I was a little ate ate the whole pizza and I threw up everywhere. My aunt will watch me And they were all not laughing but they were laughing because I ate the whole pizza and I wanted more. There was one piece left and they ate it and they thought that was so hilarious. I wanted it was like a whole pizza no one eat it. I want a mushroom pizza. I want to try mushroom pizza because I had them a couple times and I love mushrooms like my father and my mother love them, but in my system, but a lot of my family was like oh my god that you didn’t mean fungus lol my will eat a lot of different things but mushrooms, certain mushrooms they like and they don’t spit out so that’s a good thing because of mushrooms a very good and I used to try to grow him but it never worked. People did around here did grow him and sold them but I don’t know why I don’t know if it was just not the right temperature for the soil I was using we were using my mother try. The one batch came out, but they weren’t that great they were all right or maybe even then it wasn’t the right kind of mushroom? For around here because we just grew mushrooms you don’t care what kind they were. Sometimes you could find truffles and around here. They’re very small but they were pretty good. I don’t know if they had like a round in the park. They used to eat the mushrooms. Some of them were poison. Someone weren’t, but they knew which ones weren’t, but they found truffles all the time in the woods in the park we hang out at the whole lives
Simon was probably looking away from the view due to sensory overload. At first I thought it was either fear of heights or sensory overload but given that Simon was not afraid of falling when he was on the stairs and able to fit through the bars it looks like he’s not as afraid of heights as I thought he would be. When I was three-and-a-half years old on the ferry boat to Nantucket with my family I was mostly looking away from the ocean. For me some of it was fear of heights but it was mostly sensory overload. I still remember how windy it was and how much the boat was rocking. At the time my mother thought that I was seasick, but I was actually having a sensory meltdown instead. Sensory overload has been an issue for me for as long as I can remember due to being on the spectrum.
I’m guessing that Simon’s PDA diagnosis was probably partly a result of him often refusing help. That being said he is able to ask for help sometimes like when he has that bracelet on during the preschool field trip and he says “Help, please.” Also, before he became verbal “help” was one of the first signs that he learned so he does understand the concept of “help” and is sometimes able to ask for it when he needs it.
Mosquito repellent doesn’t really seem to help me either. In fact when I was growing up the bug spray that I used was called “Off” and it seemed like I was bitten more when I had it on. I remember years ago on HBO on an episode of Not Necessarily the News (I think back in the 1980s) there was a segment about a fictional mosquito attraction spray called “On”. I think I can relate to that segment more than most of the other viewers of that series.
When I was growing up mosquitoes also liked to bite me (as well as my sister). We’re both on the spectrum. My parents are both neurotypical (as far as I know) and they also get bitten by mosquitoes but not even half as often. Has anyone else experienced this in their own families?
Some studies suggested that in addition to skin microbiota, other factors that can alter body temperature, emission of carbon dioxide, ammonia, and lactic acid, such as pregnancy, infection with malaria parasites, diet, and genetics, can make some people more attractive to mosquitoes.❤
How old do you think Simon was when he learned what the word naughty means? I was level two when I was growing up (I’m currently level one) and I think I was at least four years old (if not five) before I understood the word “naughty” on any level. In my case between being on the spectrum, being born around three months prematurely, and having some right hemisphere damage due to a small stroke at birth people thought that I was being stubborn when in fact I actually didn’t know what the rules were yet. If Simon happens to also have a right hemisphere condition of some type (in addition to being on the autism spectrum) I wonder if this could be some of what we are seeing here. If this is the case then some of his behavior that has been attributed to PDA might not actually be an example of that whether he happens to have PDA or not. When Simon hugs you early in this video some people (for example one or two people in my family if they happen to see this video at some point) might consider it to be manipulative behavior, but considering that he only understood the concept of hiding after Marie taught him how to play Hide and Seek I think something else might be happening here.
Just like my cellphone’s go in the toilet and now they can lift the cover to the toilets tank 😮they are funny together whel they plot and scheme 😅they’re twins and been acting like they are twins since I’ve been gone ❤😂 11:52
It looks like Simon sees Ezra as a role model even though Simon is level one. It looks like even at this point Simon’s social skills are starting to come along. Incidentally on the recent Sunday morning where it looked like Ezra broke Simon’s bus and Simon had a meltdown because of it Ezra might have been trying to act as a role model for Simon on a conscious level (for perhaps the first time ever) when Simon’s meltdown caused it to momentarily seem like he might have been regressing (if he was he seemed to have bounced back pretty quickly, probably in less than a day). I initially thought that this was what might have been happening with Simon and Ezra might have initially assumed something similar when he saw Simon’s meltdown from his safety bed (but only he knows for sure (Maybe some day when his communication skills improve he will be able to tell you something about this with his iPad or in some other way). In any case I think Ezra used the toilet independently for the first time on that Sunday morning because he was trying to set an example/be a role model for Simon. If so, then this is a good sign both in terms of Ezra’s daytime toilet training progress and the development of his social skills.
Have you ever left the US or have you ever flown with the kids? Delilah, southern states have never been to Florida, but the Alabama close to a wine to Flora might across the board of once because it was very close to Florida probably have.
@@7Aheadfamily I wish I was Marks age when I went to Europe I would’ve learned a lot more maybe I’d like to know where you’d like to go but I would like to know about Mike with his destination is mine is in Japan always want to go to Japan but now it’s kind of changed and I want to go to Egypt. my grandmother went to Egypt bro camels in Egypt. Next payment is one of my favorite pictures. If not my favorite picture and that’s where I pretty much the 🪙 I remember I wrote a camel at the zoo when I fell off the hump I was not get a little hurt, but I was probably like 10 years old everyone to all know picking me up I’m fine man I got a little hurt, but I enjoyed myself. I cried a little because yeah it’s a pretty camels are always cold. I love a lot of different animals. Animals mean a lot to this family but random camel Egypt. I’m old is it in I’m gonna dig always think it’s cool. It’s like my kids you know mommy unwrap I watch them all the time. I’m into Egypt a lot especially now I’m back and wanted to know more
@@7Aheadfamily when you’re from Massachusetts, you need to know long words I am an old village. It’s a big though it’s not a village it’s a neighborhood there’s a lot of side streets lotta hills that’s why we will never ride bikes like that but we did get in trouble but we went crazy on bikes in the I’m gonna have to put it on a different post because it’s very long. It’s the longest name in the United States Lake Webster y’all probably already know that, but I’ve spent a lot of time. There is a good story about it I mean you got a good friend of mine and his brother, when we were little and we were very little to we were like babies and we never knew that until my father told me and then we probably found the old picture. Haven’t talk to my friend a long time but we’re kind of at odds right now he’s wants to come and I wanted to come this weekend but because I’ve been making up with a lot of friends and I had to what happened recently has kind a hard, I’ve made a lot up with a lot of friends that I’ve I thought they never forgive me and I apologize to them all the time

Thank you so much! ❤️😊❤️
I showed my 8 year old the lighthouse view i gotta get him there we are down south all the time and in march was the 1st time we've been to Florida and i have no idea why ,we've been to cape Henry lighthouse Virginia beach he loved it
That’s awesome! Yeah he would love it. 😊
On the definition of the word “toddler”. I have noticed that both Huggies pull-ups and Pampers Easy Ups go up to size 5T-6T. That means that a five or six-year old in the 50th percentile would still be able to wear them if needed. That also means (it seems to me) that some kids might technically still be toddlers (size-wise and developmentally) until age five or even six.

What a fantastic opportunity for the kids!! So glad we got to see it!
It was fun! The coast off of Florida is just magical in that spot!
Well, he HAD to throw SOMETHING. I think Simon is my kind of kid😅 Probably nice for the older kids to something their age without the little ones.
Thank you for sharing.

When I was growing up mosquitoes also liked to bite me (as well as my sister). We’re both on the spectrum. My parents are both neurotypical (as far as I know) and they also get bitten by mosquitoes but not even half as often.
Has anyone else experienced this in their own families?
Some studies suggested that in addition to skin microbiota, other factors that can alter body temperature, emission of carbon dioxide, ammonia, and lactic acid, such as pregnancy, infection with malaria parasites, diet, and genetics, can make some people more attractive to mosquitoes.❤

If Simon happens to also have a right hemisphere condition of some type (in addition to being on the autism spectrum) I wonder if this could be some of what we are seeing here. If this is the case then some of his behavior that has been attributed to PDA might not actually be an example of that whether he happens to have PDA or not.
When Simon hugs you early in this video some people (for example one or two people in my family if they happen to see this video at some point) might consider it to be manipulative behavior, but considering that he only understood the concept of hiding after Marie taught him how to play Hide and Seek I think something else might be happening here.
Great question I am not exactly sure. Appreciate so much your perspectives and comments. :)
Just like my cellphone’s go in the toilet and now they can lift the cover to the toilets tank 😮they are funny together whel they plot and scheme 😅they’re twins and been acting like they are twins since I’ve been gone ❤😂 11:52
😂
Funny 😂
thanks
Wow what a fun vacation
You know it. :-)
It looks like Simon sees Ezra as a role model even though Simon is level one. It looks like even at this point Simon’s social skills are starting to come along.
Incidentally on the recent Sunday morning where it looked like Ezra broke Simon’s bus and Simon had a meltdown because of it Ezra might have been trying to act as a role model for Simon on a conscious level (for perhaps the first time ever) when Simon’s meltdown caused it to momentarily seem like he might have been regressing (if he was he seemed to have bounced back pretty quickly, probably in less than a day). I initially thought that this was what might have been happening with Simon and Ezra might have initially assumed something similar when he saw Simon’s meltdown from his safety bed (but only he knows for sure (Maybe some day when his communication skills improve he will be able to tell you something about this with his iPad or in some other way). In any case I think Ezra used the toilet independently for the first time on that Sunday morning because he was trying to set an example/be a role model for Simon.
If so, then this is a good sign both in terms of Ezra’s daytime toilet training progress and the development of his social skills.
Thank you for sharing!💕💕💕
Have you ever left the US or have you ever flown with the kids? Delilah, southern states have never been to Florida, but the Alabama close to a wine to Flora might across the board of once because it was very close to Florida probably have.
We have not flown with the kids, just taken the RV across the nation. 😊

It’s a big though it’s not a village it’s a neighborhood there’s a lot of side streets lotta hills that’s why we will never ride bikes like that but we did get in trouble but we went crazy on bikes in the I’m gonna have to put it on a different post because it’s very long.

There is a good story about it I mean you got a good friend of mine and his brother, when we were little and we were very little to we were like babies and we never knew that until my father told me and then we probably found the old picture. Haven’t talk to my friend a long time but we’re kind of at odds right now he’s wants to come and I wanted to come this weekend but because I’ve been making up with a lot of friends and I had to what happened recently has kind a hard, I’ve made a lot up with a lot of friends that I’ve I thought they never forgive me and I apologize to them all the time
