Meltdown Avoidance

[@bambibrignall-taylor7256]

ABBIE'S SMILE COULD CURE THE WORLD SO PURE SHE'S BEAUTIFUL INSIDE AND OUT smiling in restaurant so awesome ❤

[@mawithaxdd]

I’m 25 now, but naps were abundant when I was a senior in high school. I think I legitimately took a nap every single day after school during my senior year.

[@ekidd79]

Not one person slid across the new floor in their socks off of Tom Cruise in Risky Business *shakes head* I am disappointed in y'all ;-)

[@crystaldesjardin4321]

Me: waiting for it up coming next vlog lol

[@tinycomedian]

I think I see a drop the ball and disappointed us I mean we can’t see anyone else with the flexibility and confidence to show KZbin their underwear 🩲

[@heatherjunker967]

I can see Isaiah doing this. That would be hilarious.

[@katrinahollingsworth8844]

My mom ended up with a black eye and a huge bruise on her hip doing that. I don’t recommend it lol!

[@freakier0790]

You guys, next step you should take is to buy a reusable coffee cup that Dunkin will refill for you. You got the refillable water bottle for Abbie. This is the next step. Love you guys and thanks for sharing your life with us. 🤗

[@madisoncorman4764]

When Asa said “go off sister” I swear it sounds like Abbie responded by saying “I am”

[@kaciestarz]

So, I’ve been watching your videos for sometime now and I have always wanted to be a teacher, but now I am going to go to start my bachelors in early elementary and special education! I wanted to let you all know that your videos have played a huge part in helping me come to that conclusion ❤️ I want to say thank you!

[@callieanne662]

Kacie Kay that is awesome! Wishing you the best of luck.

[@kaciestarz]

Callie Marcum Thank you!!

[@wheelie26]

The floor is beautiful, it looks lovely in that room.

[@alexismarie4822]

Favorite part of the day: when the Maass family post❤️

[@Treespiritofficial]

i was thinking, rocking must be a great exercise. So i tried it. and after 2 minutes ..motion sickness. Rocking is not for me.

[@dothedo3667]

I love rocking (usually relatively small ones) but after a bit it usually makes me feel a little nauseated and makes my back hurt

[@yourfriendlyneighbourhoodg4959]

I ALWAYS rock, when I’m stressed or concentrating I do small rocking but when I’m excited I basically slam myself in to the sofa

[@akufromthefuture7159]

Never been this early. Love you guys. Im 27 and on the spectrum, and it's great seein someone treat people like us the way you do. I'm constantly hearing jokes about autism. Everyone i know seems to assume we either are low functioning or rain man. Most don't know i even am on the spectrum. But when they find out, im either a liar or im "doing sooooo well in spite of being handicapped"... Toss off.. lol But thank you for spreading awareness! I wish i had a family. If i did, id want one like yours. Your wife looks fantastic! She's lost SO much weight. Very inspiring!

[@janaleonard4702]

That floor is beautiful! Yes air tools are tough for my son too! Abbie's smile is the best!!!

[@rileyplaysanimalcrossing4415]

Abbie standing up looking to see if her plate of food is ready at the restaurant is a whole mood. I think we all wish we could do that abbie!

[@Treespiritofficial]

you can, who is stopping you to day that?

[@alyssacorexcore]

The constant positive reinforcement... absolutely amazing. And when Isaiah popped up in the corner of the new living room made me laugh so much

[@MadeaNH]

All I could think in the beginning not the vlog was “wow, Abbie is talkative today”, and then Priscilla said exactly that. Abbie, you had so much to say today. I really wish there was an app that could translate for you!!!! 🧩❤️🧩

[@marymiller5824]

Valerie Dudley I thought the same. Think about the conversations we all have daily. She wants them too and can’t. It’s too bad her vocals couldn’t be recognized but I know that’s impossible. Sounds crazy but I have a Siberian Husky that “talks all day” but I don’t know what’s she’s sayin. I NO way am I comparing our beautiful Abby to my dog, it’s just a comparison. I try to decipher the different sounds and try to figure out what’s she saying but it’s hard.

[@jkupsky1]

Abbies anticipation for her meal at the restaurant is sooooooooooo relatable. Her smile made this stressful day so much better. Love you all Maass family!!!

[@jilliangrace2]

You making an effort to tell them about Ab in Spanish just hit me hard. Educating everyone, for Ab and for them. Made my day. 🧩

[@ashlynclark3001]

It sounded like Abbey said “I know” at 1:35

[@cindyswanda6708]

I agree!!

[@shadowfigure3749]

It sounds like "I am" to me which is why they always emphasize that Abbie's sounds are not words but words are made up of sounds so sometimes her sounds make it sound like she's talking.

[@HL-bz9lv]

Abbie sounds it out sometimes ..

[@thechronicillnessdiaries2773]

@@josephinehimmlar6437 - Thankfully she has a family willing to do that. Awareness is not exploitation. And what they earn from the videos, I am sure is going towards Abbey's long term care. Autism with Abbey's high needs costs a fortune. I have seen the bills for even just a children's group home. The bills are extraordinary. Kudos to these parents for not only providing for their daughter's current and future care, but all being there for her 110%.

[@jovanaluna568]

I heard "I am"

[@hahna77]

Perfect comedic timing Isaiah, absolutely on point delivery, love it! 😂

[@mayraestrada1058]

This channel came up on my Facebook feed I know more about Autism than I did before and I’m glad I do. Thanks to you! I’m hooked. Love ya’ll.❤️

[@deborahhallsworth8410]

I love Abbies laugh and smile. Makes my day and properly cheers me up, I live for your vlogs everyday

[@barbarawilliams7194]

Often times I find it’s easiest for me to show people/not tell em. I truly enjoy watching your family and how excited you continue to get simply by loving Abbie & keeping her safe and I’ll thank y’all for every viewer troll or not that you are where you are to now for being natural and so many of us do and the world NEVER HEARS OR IN THE RARE OCCASION THE WORLD DOES HEAR.....IT IS JUST A CAPITALISM GENERIC COMMERCIAL THAT NEVER PROVIDE ANY RELIEF FOR THE CAUSE......... THANK YOU FOR LOVING ABBIE AND FOR NEVER DOING THINGS LIKE I HAVE JUST TYPED BECAUSE I SEE IT, HEAR IT, READ IT, BREATHE IT, SMELL IT, TASTE IT, NUTURE IT AND PROVIDE EVERY MEASURE TO KEEP HER SAFE AND US VIEWERS IN TURN LEARN HOW TO HEALTHILY RAISE A PERSON WITH SPECIAL NEEDS IN EVERY SENSE OF THE WORD😇❤️

[@TanyaElisabeth]

Just so excited I’m a new patron!!!! Love you guys!!!

[@Thusday_1]

One of the things that I do at work is learning different expressions of the individuals I work with. Our goal is always try to set everyone up for success. And even when that goal isn’t met it is a learning moment for all of us to better prepare for future endeavors and experiences. I appreciate that you invite us into your experiences because it provides tools for those who want to help people navigate this crazy thing we call life.

[@Balwee32]

Tricky McTrickerson!!!! I seen the after the beep on yesterday’s vlog and you already had the hardwood floor down 😂

[@mallorygibbons4975]

I was wondering the same thing. I saw the one where they ripped up the carpet n at the end I saw the hardwood floors but it never showed them being put in or pointed out that it was done. Now I see this one after that showed it being installed.

[@Angie2283]

Hello! I love your channel and the awareness you spread. My daughter is 11 and has high functioning autism, adhd and Dcd.

[@SLYCoopaEatsChicken]

I love that you were willing the breakdown the language barrier

[@madiwillis7349]

I love your channel so much! My boyfriend is on the Autistic Spectrum and you guys have helped me learn more about people who are kind of like him! You guys seem like such a loving family and you’ve raised such a sweet, smiley girl. Thank you for helping the world be aware of those who have Autism. 🧩❤️

[@timmyangeltlc4888]

That is beautiful flooring. Abbies smile and laugh are joyful and wonderful. I also wish they would have done the sock slide across the floor. Lol.

[@bionicprincess8008]

The floor is gorgeous. You really have a lovely home. So happy for you guys 🤗💗🏡🐶

[@thechronicillnessdiaries2773]

Nice job of avoiding a meltdown! Abby thought she was in high heaven getting a snack and drink in a different room. She was truly happy and I would venture to say appreciative!! This reminded me that I need to love and appreciate even the small things. Thanks Abby for this precious reminder!

[@chloedymond1065]

You guys are doing an amazing job I've been watching for 7 months now and everyday your subscribers go up by thousands and that means you guys are spreading awareness around the world with the videos you produce and I'm learning so much by watching everyday. You guys should be so proud ❤❤❤

[@lowkib3201]

I Loved That you were trying to Be kind and was Trying to Learn To speak his language in order to communicate effectively, As ALWAYS love Abbie Girl 💜 But you Guys Asa, Cilla, Isaiah& summer are Awesome.

[@nokkamies4988]

I.m a Finn and I'm curious to feel that "cold" weather :D looks like a beautiful summer morning to me

[@isabelzapata3797]

Abby was a chatterbox before school. Loving the new floor and the steps leading into the kitchen make it look even better.

[@kennedyklusmeier7996]

"So Abb has decided to have the whole basket of chips" ME on a Friday night😂😂😂😂❤

[@skycastleberry9092]

For the first time in my life I have wood floors and hate them because they are so hard to keep them clean especially having a kid and two cats. How do you keep your floors looking so clean? HELP PLEASE

[@jokingslist9407]

Great dealing that yous are such a great family love

[@cammiec6430]

The new floor looks amazing!! Looks like a whole different room! I can't wait to tear up our carpet and replace it!

[@akanesamasan]

Awww i love the fact you actually tried to speak in their language. Im a portuguese (From Portugal in Europe not Brazil) speaking native! :D

[@sarakeith5480]

The floor looks fantastic!! They did a great job!!

[@marlareid883]

I wish you told Asa and Isaiah about Abbie wiping up the salsa on her own on the vlog, would loved to have seen their reactions. Way to go Abbie!

[@AquaMom84]

Love the floor and surprised they didnt put any padding under the floor to keep it warmer and not as loud. Most definitely need a rug to keep those toes warm now

[@ariellerivera4465]

finally someone who was wondering the same thing. it also provides a moisture barrier.

[@treniesablunt]

To see how abby has grown it warms my heart

[@Jacoe413]

We are getting new flooring soon and honestly I'm dreading it. My sound sensitivity along with having difficulty with change. Last time we did a major renovation I was actually in the hospital so wasn't there for the loud stuff or to see things change slowly. I hot home and had a bad panic attack/sensory overload because it looked completely different.

[@ashlynclark3001]

Y’all make my day soo much better!!💗💗

[@alexamackay]

It always sounds like Abbie is saying mom in so many vlogs, super cute💗 really love your new floor, much prettier they that rug. Xoxox’s❤️🧩👍💪💋

[@marymiller5824]

Has Abby seen snow? Maybe a trip to New Hampshire, Vermont or Maine? It’s really beautiful this time of year. I’m 53 and still act like a kid when it snows out! I LOVE the snow.

[@CathySMelton]

She grows more and more the more she hangs out with the girls. I love her smile and happiness.

[@amandacoelhopereiraribeiro5380]

I watch you guys for almost a year.. even though I don't have any autistic family member I love to watch how beautifully you all treat and take care of Abby. Btw... I from Brazil ..your brazilian accent was brilliant hahaha

[@TheSherryKazmi]

The floor looks amazing! So beautiful!😍👍🏼

[@courtneypaige4552]

My son has the same reaction as Abbie to popcorn. big smile and exited lol

[@thechronicillnessdiaries2773]

Can I just say that I love how authentic you all are? It is just so rare to see such genuine people. I watched the vlog when your son took supplies to the little boy in another country. (I have chemo brain and am forgetting names and places). I cried all the way through it! You have done such an amazing job raising Isaiah and Abby too. Isaiah seems like he has such a kind heart. And I am not sure how you found Summer but she sure is a keeper. Hey if Summer wants an ASL buddy I am a certified interpreter for the Deaf. (Unable to work due to cancer and other health issues). Also, I cannot believe what a difference that walker made for the little boy. My goal over the next few months is to watch all your vlogs from the past. Seeing Ab brings back wonderful memories of the children I used to work with who were Deaf and Autistic.

[@juliherron8991]

It is not that cold and remember they never have to shovel snow. I live in the Phoenix are and we often say, you never shovel sunshine here. Abbie you did fantastic today, it could of been a rough day. Blessings to all of you.😊🤩😎

Love the new flooring! My dad has a hard wood floor business back in Oregon and the work is killer but so dang beautiful! Now I just need him to come to Oklahoma to put floors in my new home 😂

When they are little, we have to stop them doing things, as soon they become teenagers we have to force them doing ANYTHING😁

[@charlesbandini6650]

You guys are AWESOME

[@carollohn5590]

I love the floor, great choice. Love it when Abbie laughs, so glad she has Becca and Summer. You look like you had a great ladies night out.

[@tigrashadow74]

awww i always love seein that dimpled smile and giggle of Abbie's....she did so well when the workers were there..and the floor looks awesome!.... and well done Abbie for cleaning up the salsa!!! xoxo

Abigail had me smiling big time! I was laughing so hard when she was looking for the food😂😂

Yes, my 2 teenagers are professional nappers as well. They have been professionally trained by the King Napper...their father.

[@Tenamf]

The new floor looks awesome

[@jeanneporter4475]

I just had my four bedroom house completely refloored with plank vinyl. Six days of chaos. My two dogs and cat and I (76 year old female) are stressed!! That compressor is a tough one. I don’t blame Abbie a bit for getting freaked.

[@allisontaylor1818]

Hi ladies...its warmer in Canada today...great job cleaning up Abby. Love you guys...oh and the floor looks great!!

[@maureengee364]

Looks gorgeous guy’s. Abbie did so great.🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

I am guessing that Florida cold and Hawaii cold are the same. Here in Hawaii when it get to 60 degrees the news calls it a cold front. We have not had a cold front yet.

[@carolynkor3021]

You need to do a house tour,I probably missed it. I had no idea you had the living room or the formal dining room. You are all so wonderful with Abbey! I think buying the cart car? Not sure what to call it, was the best thing you could have bought for Abbey . I love it when Abbey is so happy.

[@katplayswithyarn6346]

Love your family. Extended in all, Summer you're amazing with Abby

[@violincalos8323]

So funny story; I watch the vlog everyday and yesterday I was watching with my family and my dog (who is also a black puppy ) wandered in the room. She stands there for a second watching the TV. I start to wonder what she's looking at until I realized.... she was staring at Maverick!! It was too cute. :)

[@karenhall4924]

Violin Calos my cat will watch them too!! If I pull KZbin up on the big tv instead of my tablet she will sit and watch the videos!
