Traveling with special needs!

[@pepperpot48]

I get such joy watching Sebastian. It's like we can read his mind by his movements and his facial expressions

[@amandavm]

Bless. Sebastian is trying so hard to sit up. All that therapy is paying off. It's really good to see his progress. You're gonna have a great little holiday. I really hope he enjoys the pool. You and Gio deserve a greak. ❤👨‍👩‍👧🐕🦜❤️

[@jaynells4313]

I am a 40yr old man and I like watching UFC fights , rock bouncers and rc cars, I ran into a video of you and sebastian and Gio and now I am hooked showed my mom now she's hooked sebastian is such a handsome little guy and has two of the best parents in the world❤ Thank you for the content you put out 😊

[@stephaniegeorge]

Omg. I love that You’re here!! Stick around. Gio loves to talk about his cars and RC cars lol. AND our special boy haha. Lots of family stuff and car stuff here lol!!!

[@lorihenderson1199]

Oh Stephanie, Gio, and Sebastian, I'm so uber excited for your vacation!! AAUUGGHH!! 🥳🥳🥳 Sebastian is going to be so stinking cute in his swimsuits! ❤❤ I'm praying that you have safe travels and Sebastian has the best time with absolutely no heart issues! ♥️ Just relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery! Tennessee is breathtaking! I love every vlog you post, but most certainly when Sebastian is just rolling around, smiling, and talking. 💙💙💙 Much love to you, Gio, and Sebastian!! 💙❤🩵🐕🦜😍🥰🤗🫶💞💕🙏🏻

[@crystalIzed333]

As I told Freya's family...I Love you and your family! I come home from a stressful day and smile and smile and smile! Thank you for allowing us in!

[@gracefox6988]

Stephanie you are such a great mom getting prepared for your trip. Sebastian is such a gift & I'm so glad you share him with all of us. Blessings to you all.❤🙏

[@tnblueeyes777]

Safe Travels! 🚘 Try the fudge when you get to the Smokies! The fudge just melts in your mouth!❤If you have time, take a ride through Cades Cove. It is so peaceful and Beautiful! Possibly could see a bear 🐻 We took several pictures of bears when we drove through the last time there. ❤

[@KD1234-s4r]

just saw a momma and her twins about 5 ft from us while driving the loop. She was on the ground watching her twins in the tree right on the side of the road. My grandkids loved seeing her

[@karenligus8224]

I'm sure you'll have a great vacation. It's awesome to see Sebastian experience new things. I have to say he has the cutest dimples! My Autistic grandson isn't a fan of the movie theater either. It's too loud and ours can't sit still. But we don't know if we don't try and we always have an alternate plan just in case. Sometimes new things don't work out and that's okay! Have a wonderful prepping weekend! You're doing an awesome job Stephanie!

[@joantorres3309]

Sebastian and Zeus rolling on the floor together is so cute! You guys have the best vacation ever! I can’t wait to hear about it! Enjoy, and safe travels. ❤

[@Fuzzeej71]

May you all have safe travels to Tennessee. Enjoy the Smokies! We’ve had plenty of rain so they’re beautiful rn. Enjoy the food and the hospitality!!! Be sure and mash him up a biscuit with some gravy! I hope Sebastian loves his adventure!! ❤

[@user-du5wf1um1q]

Стефания, ты умничка. Так нежна со своим сынулей и Себастьян чувствует твою любовь и счастлив, не смотря на свои ограниченные возможности. Мне кажется, что придет время и он, благодаря тебе, сможет садиться.

[@racheltessmer925]

Hi Stephanie! Good Evening🎶🎵I am sooo blessed your journal pops up in the evening while I am relaxing for the evening! So excited you get a real vaca! So much work, but knowing you and Gio...so worthit it! LOVE Zeus laying next to Sebastian 😂! Probably feeling he won't see his buddy Sebastian for a few days! Girl, you make this look easy! Sebastian just loves his interaction with Mama! Look at that smile when you talk about all the Adventures on Vaca!!! Could you do a journal with you, Gio, and Sebastian talking?He is sooo smart! 😊😊 What your family has went through the first few years of his life...with dignity and honesty...RELAX on Vacation! You educate us because of your big ❤! A haircut! That gorgeous hair! I am so blessed your journal came up! As always, humble thanks for sharing your life! Safe travels😊 and ENJOY! LOVE from Minnesota ❤🙋‍♀️! P.S. Don't forget the yellow crocs! 💛😍🤗😉😊

[@marilynfarmer6176]

He is just soooo precious. Have a wonderful time on vacation.

[@creativestudiobydeedee8942]

I used to be a Paraprofessional in a special needs preschool. At one time I worked one on one with a four yr old with Spina Bifida and MD and he was nonverbal. I believe it was his speech Pathologist that set him up with speaking panel. It was similar to Sebastian’s toy with the large buttons that lights up and plays music when he pushes one of the colored buttons. You program each button with a single word, for example “Eat”. The button has Eat written on it and when he pushes it, it with say “Eat”. You could also add words like “Mom”, “Dad”, “Sleep”, “Play”, etc. You could add or take away buttons as he learns new ones or his needs change. This is a great way to teach him to communicate with you so you know exactly what he wants. I think Sebastian could use that device very well. I cannot remember the name of it but is a great tool!

[@ahitchcock6557]

its a great tool! I agree!

[@ReginaK2]

I saw chocolate pudding flash across his face 😁 I don’t think but I will pray that the elevation won’t bother Sebastian. I will also pray that our lil man and his moms and pops will have a safe and wonderful vacation!

[@karolrust2300]

It is a stressful time when you have to plan and pack for a trip, but you are doing a wonderful job Stephanie!! Sebastian is getting cuter and cuter everyday-if that's even possible!!💙❤ This will be a whole new experience for you all and it will be interesting to see how he handles travel and being away from his home environment. Try to get some rest and in a few days you will be relaxing and enjoying your time!! Praying for travel mercy🙏

[@lynnelittlejohn7922]

So excited for you all, 1st family vacation. Safe travels and have an awesome time. 🤗🤗🤗🙏🙏😘😘😘Xxx Lynne U.K. Xxx

[@Mami_Loca]

Yay! First finally! Hapoy to see y'all again ❤❤❤ How exciting your FIRST family vacation! I was actually intrigued learning everything it takes to make sure Mister has all the medically necessary items but also things that are sources of comfort as well. I enjoy being educated on more details or important facts I wasn't aware of before.

[@stephaniegeorge]

Thank you for being here!!!!!

[@LizK6457]

I have a young adult daughter with autism. This info is priceless. Thank you so much!

[@kristen484]

Have a great time on Sebastian’s 1st vacation 🤗☀️. I’m sending happy positive thoughts while you are traveling hoping everything goes smoothly and you all have a wonderful time 🤗☀️🤗☀️🥰 Love all of you guys and fur babies ❤ Hiii Sebastian handsome boy 😊

[@a.life.reimagined]

He sure is holding his head up well! ❤❤

[@sarahkapustic1881]

Hope everything goes smoothly for your trip. As a fellow stay at home mom I do it all also. 💕💐

[@Flowerchild6855]

I’m new to your channel and I just love watching him and your interactions with him. He is such a cutie.

[@reneebrewer9251]

It was good to see you guys. I hope vacation is tons of fun. As much as Sebastian loves a bath, he’s going to enjoy that pool. I think he will do fine. He’s a strong little boy. What he has conquered just with his health issues would make a grown man cry. He’s just a special little guy.

[@Pearlyglitter]

A little packing tip from me: A while back I made a packing list for one of my travels. And now I keep reusing it every time I travel. I check it off as I pack, and I find it very helpful, and I don't stress as much thinking if I've remembered everything anymore. I would definitely recommend doing something like this, especially for Sebastian, because as you said, there are so many "little" things to remember, such as the charger for the pulsoximeter. Wishing you all a great trip, and awesome holiday

[@Pearlyglitter]

@@catiehays3361 Yes, exactly :) I also find it helps me sleep the night before we're leaving, because when I wake up the morning of traveling, I just need to pack whatever is left on the list. I don't have to keep reminding myself of things that I don't want to forget and so on.

[@donnasexton716]

I have so much love in my heart for this little guy ❤ I love his smiles so much. His swimsuits are adorable 🥰 I pray everything goes smoothly for you guys!!

[@candicesailsbury1355]

I just love Sebastian’s smile and dimples. I feel like I say that a lot 😂 Enjoy your vacation Love y’all bunches 💙🩷💙🐶🦜

[@lindaavery8586]

You might want to get a bag of little swimmers for the pool. Diapers don't work.

[@stephaniegeorge]

Definitely. I forgot this!!! Thank you!!

[@fernbenoit9734]

Stephanie, I am so in awe of you. You think of stuff Sebastian may need, will need and may not need, but is good to have along. It's like God equipped you to the enth degree so you could take care of your entire family, including the animals!

[@cheryljones7742]

I just pray that you remember to breath and enjoy your time together as a family ❤

[@stephaniegeorge]

Thank you so much. Honestly, I pray the same!!! Lol.

[@julieannesimms6236]

Sebastian has the cutest little face😊

[@lindagibson9528]

Its exhausting packing for vacations...it was always up to me to make sure we had everything! Love seeing my little fella! Gosh love Sebastian! 💙💙 God Bless

[@tracyfinch918]

Your friend, Freya is a year younger and she's been saying Dada repeatedly in the last vlog I was watching. I believe it's her first word. It was the 4th of July one, too cute!

[@stephaniegeorge]

I love that!!!!! Makes me cry happy tears. Maybe one day Seb will use his words too!! You never know! We love Freya and her family.

[@elliegoldie6140]

@@stephaniegeorgeHi Stephanie I to watch little Freya.l never compare as you explained children born with this illness are all different.l do hope one day Sebastian is more verbal as you’d love him to say Mom.He has came on so much since I started watching your vlogs.l think it was when he had last operation and difference it has made.He’s one special little boy and we all love him.xx❤

[@shelleyoaks-gp1uz]

Hope y'all enjoy your vacation here in Tennessee. Hopefully Sebastian won't have any issues with the altitude. Our Smoky Mountains are so beautiful. But I think I'm a bit partial. Lol! Sebastian cracks me up with the side eye look. Safe travels and I'm excited for y'all.

[@debbie189]

Loved your video watching Sebastian and mom. I hope you, Sebastian and Gio have the best vacation. Im not much for being in long car rides but enjoy the scenery. Lots of hugs and love ❤

[@debbienickels2821]

If only modern science could bottle Sebastian’s smile with a little eyelash thrown in then anti depressants would be in less demand. ❤

[@ddinottia39]

Safe travels mercies! 🙏 He sure is full piss and vinager! 🤣🤣 I just love him. The movies can be overly overwhelming for anyone. I myself have issues too when it comes to the movie theater. They say some people with autoimmune diseases have those issues. Enjoy your trip! ❤️

Your sweet boy is getting so strong. I love seeing him roll all over the floor. Enjoy your vacay!

Hope you all have so much fun on your vacation! Just wanted to let you know, my 9 year old daughter, Maisie, and my 3 year old son Milo think Sebastian is the coolest and love watching his videos. Every time you post a new video, Maisie gets so excited and yells " SEBASTIAN HAS A NEW VIDEO!!" or she will literally call me at work to let me know lol! We are all so happy about the progress that he is making! thanks so much for sharing with us! ❤

I absolutely give you props for packing on a vacation. Im getting ready to pack for just the weekend at the beach and its me and the hubster. You are an absolutely superwoman to do what you do. Thats why i love you sharing your life like youdo. My youngest had severe allergic asthmatic problems that required us to pack medical equipment but im really impressed with how you jumped at this challenge. I can not wait for all the vac details. So happy you are getting away. I love the smokey mountain area. So beautiful.

Praying that u have a great vacation! Ur right, packing falls on moms/wives. It's very stressful, physically and mentally exhausting. I can only imagine packing all the extra and making sure the just-in cases are all covered as well. Since u are such a great mom all u friends on here know you've got this! Be safe

We have always absolutely loved going to the mountains . Our kids and now their kids. Gatlinburg and the Smokey Mountains. So beautiful. The fall and winter is our fave but every season is lovely.

Yup cleaning the house before going on vacation that is how i do it also. I hope you guys have a great vacation and Sebastian is doing well on the trip

The oxygen brings back memories. My son was on it for 3 years. So happy you are taking a nice vacation!

[@marshaper4010]

Packing can be so stressful…but you seem to be handling things well. Taking a young child to the movies is more fun for the parents than for the child. Sitting in the dark with loud dialog or music can be frightening. I know you want Sebastian to have new experiences, but he seems the happiest just rolling around in the floor or listening to your sweet voice. Those dimples get me every time. So precious. Love the way Zeus will lay beside Sebastian. What a gentle pup he is. Nayal was especially vocal today. Love when she whistles and says, “good girl”! You will love Tennessee. There is so much to do for a young family. Steph you amaze me how focused you are with everything on your plate. But, it is great you take time out for yourself to go to the gym. Sending hugs from Florida😊
