Our autistic daughter Braylee started doing this thing where she closes her eyes and does her best to get from point A to point B without opening them. The way she opens them and looks around makes it seem like it is a game she plays, but I personally think it is more than that. I think it is sensory. Like turning off her vision to gain more feeling of her surrounding type thing. Good chance that it is play too. #weefam #autistic #airtravel

I know she wasn’t there as respite but just having Kaitlin there for the travel day must have been so helpful

She wasn’t on the clock, but we did pay for her to join us to help out with B during non autism on the seas times. She and dawson both were a huge help throughout our trip!

So happy for you guys that you are on your cruise. I'm with Stacy about the flying thing... it's not the plane so much that gives me anxiety although it does, but I get very anxious about the whole airport process itself. Braylee was very happy to finally get to the hotel room, so cute. She has always loved hotel rooms.

My son has done this since he was probably around 3. He would walk from one side of the room to the other with his eyes closed. He still does it today, and he is 14. I don't know why 🤷‍♀️ lol

You rocked it and killed it Braley you did really good with the whole experience even flying in an airplane. That was a really big deal.

What a shame about TSA Cares! That's not the first time I've heard of them failing families that way. But I'm glad you didn't have too big of a problem because of it. Walking with her eyes closed, I think I agree with you that it may be sensory. She had such a sweet smile on her face at the end of the video, I think she was really enjoying the journey.

I’m not gonna lie, I’m a little jealous. Our special guy is 18 and bigger than me (I’m the Dad) so it’s been about 6 years since we last took him on a plane but our journey has been what it is. I’m hoping that someday we’ll get back to that point. I saw from Instagram that you were having fun so it’s all good. I’m sure she’ll have wonderful memories of the vacation and you’ll have more that are easier because of all your work.

Well I know you are home now but I'm just pretending that this is happening in the present time. What is walking with Braylees eyes closed? Sounds very interesting. I can't wait to see you guys on the cruise. Airports or not my favorite place for many reasons. It looks like B's hair is ready to get cut and shaggy again because it's in her eyes. I love her hair short. It fits her so well, a little béd head. Thank you for making videos of this trip I'm excited to see everything. And what do you do with the dogs when you leave on a vacation? And the cats for that matter. Do they just stay with Stacy's Mom? Okay guys thanks a lot always good to check into a Wee Family video.

I know the pink ear defenders are by snug. In terms of the black noise canceling headphones and the blanket, I’m not sure. Anybody else know?
