What I have noticed about these vlogs is that although they are showing their children online they are not shoving a camera in their children’s faces, and if they go out of camera shot they do not follow with the camera, it gives a nice balance of letting us see into their family without being intrusive xx
When she mentioned about the big surprise gift…. I was nearly in tears…. Joe’s reaction, everyone goes did quiet. Zoe giggles and nanny just kisses her on the check.
I love how alfie makes shure to show how impressed he is with zoe’s baking, even when she tries to brush it off he’s like “this is amazing what the hell”
As someone who also grew up calling my grandparents by distinguishing them by their dogs hearing “nanny hector” and “nanny buzzy” is so nostalgic to me!
As an early childhood educator, it’s clear Ottie’s language and curious nature is a testament to your parenting! You’re so patient and take your time to explain everything to Ottie. It struck me when you asked her which was the sugar rather than telling her. Such simple tools but encourage her learning so much!
"...I mean PRESENT. There's a present for you." I'm deceased 😂 Why was that just the absolute sweetest, funniest thing I'll ever see? 😭 I'm so glad you caught that on camera for you to watch back when she's an adult. It's not that she forgot, it was the immediate remembering and self-correcting that was just so pure and endearing. And hilarious 😅 She really wanted to help surprise Nanny and did her absolute best 🥹 I can just imagine her little (almost) 3 year old brain did everything she could on the way to Nanny Hector's house to remember to say 'present' NOT 'bike', but with all the distraction and hype of arriving and talking to Nanny on her birthday, she wasn't prepared for the moment and didn't have time to remember/practise again in her head when it was suddenly go-time 😅🥹 (which tbh, I can totally relate to at age 30 with ADHD and just the worst short-term memory ever 😂)
I’m going to be so sad when vlogust ends, but these videos so far have been making my day, just looking forward to you uploading everyday has been so exciting just being a part of a family that I was apart of before you guys were an actual family ❤️
Seeing you and Ottie bake absolutely warms my heart, I can’t believe how fast time has gone from the first time :’) Seeing your girls so happy is so beautiful, you’re both doing such a wonderful job raising two beautiful souls and being two of the best parents around ❤️⭐️🎂
If I’m ever lucky enough to have children, I strive to be the kind of mum Zoe is. I don’t have a mum myself, but watching you with your daughters just warms my heart ❤️
Gold Gold Gold - the cake, the corn and mostly the Secret reveal of the Bike - absolutely a moment for keeping remembering and loving. One of the pros of vlogging the kids is capturing these golden moments. Thanks for sharing. I reckon you have more the MH of thousands this month. Just by making us feel a little bit of a part of your family xxx Si grateful xxxx
zoe i cant believe you actually caught the moment of ottie spilling the bike secret on camera, that was magnificent hahaha fav moment ever, i love her and how much she tried!
I’ve been a silent viewer since Zoe and Alfie started dating! To see how much you all have grown as individuals, as a couple, and now as a family fills me with so much happiness! Vlogust has been so joyful to watch! Going to miss it so much. Especially hearing all of Ottie’s little stories/sangs since I work with children😂 I love you all so much. Sending you all the love from the U.S.🫶
QUESTION: (I saw this on Reddit and immediately thought of you guys) Your options are: 50 hawks, 10 crocodiles, 3 brown bears, 15 wolves, 1 hunter, 7 cape buffalo, 10,000 rats, 5 gorillas and 4 lions - you must pick 2 that will defend you while the rest are coming to kill you. Which do you pick and why? Love you guys so much! I’m taking in every moment of Vlogust while it lasts
Lovely video ottie telling nanny we got you a bike oh a present lol couldn’t stop laughing , the cake looked great Zoe you should open a cake and coffee shop xx
Was it really 1 year ago (baking your mum’s birthday cake) that Ottie randomly started singing the alphabet song? She has grown up so much in 12 months, it’s incredible to see the change!
Ottie! Bless her little heart she really is a cutie, she has incredible speech for her age. I can’t wait to see her and Novie having little chats as they get older! 🥰
I'm so grateful for these vlogs, mentally I've been having a challenging time with anxiety and this has been a wholesome escape which makes everyday better.Thank you!
Hi! Question: if someone had to summon you by throwing 3 objects into a cauldron, what would they be? (For example mine would be a Diet Dr. Pepper, garlic bread and a copy of Pride & Prejudice) 🥰
Hi Zoe and Alfie!! My question for you might not really be a question, but I wonder if you could ever visit the Madame Tussauds museum and “meet” your wax figures! It would be so cool if you could bring your daughters and see what you looked like when you were younger. Wishing you all the best!
I know (and appreciate) that these videos are just a snippet of everyday life, but they truly are so lovely! It is so nice to see how you two parent the girls.
That was a fab video. My sponge cakes always rise in the middle, how do you keep them flat. Ottie and Novie are so natural on camera. Loved seeing your Mum’s garden. It tickles me seeing your Mum in flat shoes, she’s such a high heel lady unless she’s running in her trainers 😂 The Birthday Bike present suits her. I can imagine her popping up to the local shops and bringing goodies back in the basket, ringing the bell as she needs too. Nice to see snippets of G in the background in veg garden 👏👏👏👏❤️🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸🐸
French fan over here. Been watching Zoe for over a decade now. Always been a comfort zone for me. I reckon this was a special vlog, the family, the baking, Joe, just felt very nostalgic. You and Alfie are such great parents, it's so inspiring :') ! Wishing my life will look similar in another decade
I absolutely love that although Ottie is apprehensive about cracking the eggs you encourage her anyway & this way she learns & discovers she can do it. Amazing parenting 👏🏼 but how cute that she’s concerned about getting shell in 🥹 it happens to the best of us Ottie 🧡💖
I do believe kids should always have a little kids table. We would have to buy a new one every year because they would eventually destroy them especially my son but they would eat at it, do their crafts on them and I never worried if they were getting paint on the table or anything of the sort. They were a stress free zone. We also had a large closet under our stairs, I turned it into a secret reading room. With those kids reclining chairs, I built bookcases and a large beanbag. We would go in there and read stories. I eventually painted a mural on the wall that had glow in the dark mushrooms and all that stuff it was really really adorable and let me tell you those kids loved it. My kids are your age and they still talk about their little secret reading room.🍄
I’m having such a nice & cosy day watching you bake a cake while I make the chocolate cream cheese balls you made with Ottie for Alfie the other day!🍫❤
Omg this reminds me of one of your videos which titles the same a long time ago where you baked a biscoff cake!! One of my favourite vlogs and damn that cake!!!!
the way I’m crying of laughter through your mum’s whole birthday party omg the secret present spoiling and Joe having no idea how old Novie is and Ottie’s performance complete with headstand 😂
Hey I'm loving vlogust so much!! This question came to me whilst watching Ottie make the cake with you (so adorable btw) and in the moments you were addressing the camera I was wondering what her perception of us is? Have you told her about who watches the videos and who you're talking to/has she ever asked? Or is this just something that she's had around her forever so she doesn't even think twice about the camera? Can't wait for the rest of vlogust!!
I’ve been watching you for years and I remember Caspar screaming at a birthday cake cutting one year. I love seeing that you’re still doing it nowadays 😂
it’s been so nice having vlogust as a little post work treat, it always brings a smile to my face, thank you both! 💖 question- if you were a food, what would you be and why? (additionally; what food do you think the other person would be/why?)
Vloggust has been amazing! Some days that I skip watching actually makes me happy because then I just marathon them! I have a new question! What’s something you can’t wait to do with the girls when they get older?
I’m 17 hours late but what a great vlog this one was. That came looks so delicious and when Ottie gave away the surprise 😂. I live in London and where I live I see loads of green parakeets and goose flying bye. Wishing your mum a happy birthday 🥳 🎂❤
my question is: if you could live in any fictional world (e.g whoville, hogwarts, narnia etc) what would you pick and why? and a bonus question, what fictional character whether it be from a film, tv series or book, would you love to be friends with irl? x
And now I'm crying at "you've got a bike...i mean present" 😭. That little girl melts my heart, and I've never even met her. Thank you so much for sharing her light with us xx
Otitie had me in stitches telling Nanny about her bike, so funny. X
I love Zoe encouraging ottie to try cracking the eggs after she was worried about getting the shell in she was so happy with her self 🥹
The way Ottie immediately corrected her words from bike to “I mean present” she is soo clever!!! 😂
What I have noticed about these vlogs is that although they are showing their children online they are not shoving a camera in their children’s faces, and if they go out of camera shot they do not follow with the camera, it gives a nice balance of letting us see into their family without being intrusive xx

The girls being obsessed with each other is the cutest thing ever
As someone who also grew up calling my grandparents by distinguishing them by their dogs hearing “nanny hector” and “nanny buzzy” is so nostalgic to me!

Bless her! She caught herself as fast as her 3-year-old brain could and every adult handled it so beautifully. So precious
"...I mean PRESENT. There's a present for you." I'm deceased 😂

love the way alfie is admiring zoes baking skills,and i agree zoe is amazing at baking 😍
"If Joe Joe made that, he'd have cut his finger, and passed out" 😂 that took me out
Omg Ottie accidentally spoiling the present was sooo cute bless her hahaha she was soooo close 😆😆🩷
watching your and Alfie's relationship is literally healing for my soul. so healthy, fun, caring. love you guys!
Ottie is soooo polite, bless her little heart ! you’re raising such sweet-hearted girls 🫶🏻
her little “that’s amazing” i cant 😫😫so sweet. Love that i’ve got the same name as ottie and same middle name as novie HAHAHA!!
I’m going to be so sad when vlogust ends, but these videos so far have been making my day, just looking forward to you uploading everyday has been so exciting just being a part of a family that I was apart of before you guys were an actual family ❤️
Seeing you and Ottie bake absolutely warms my heart, I can’t believe how fast time has gone from the first time :’) Seeing your girls so happy is so beautiful, you’re both doing such a wonderful job raising two beautiful souls and being two of the best parents around ❤️⭐️🎂
I vividly remember watching you making that biscoff cake in your old house so if feels so surreal seeing you bake with Ottie 🥹
Ottie spoiling a surprise is so far my favourite moment of all vlogusts, hilarious 😂
Not Joe making the bake off reference 🤣😭 bless him. Was a funny clip tho of him passing out. ❤
If I’m ever lucky enough to have children, I strive to be the kind of mum Zoe is. I don’t have a mum myself, but watching you with your daughters just warms my heart ❤️
Awww otties so cute when she talks. Also soooo polite with the no thankyous
Ottie is truly an amazing little girl. She’s adorable, sweet and sassy, and just brilliant!
Love how Alfie complimented Zoe on the cake. It was a beautiful cake Zoe

These vlogs are healing my inner child..you guys are such wonderful parents
A new vlog is the best birthday present!!!! cannot believe I'm 28 today and I have been watching Zoe for 11 years
QUESTION: (I saw this on Reddit and immediately thought of you guys)

Love you guys so much! I’m taking in every moment of Vlogust while it lasts
omg what a good idea it would be to open a bakery called 'Dayes Bakes & Coffee'
Lovely video ottie telling nanny we got you a bike oh a present lol couldn’t stop laughing , the cake looked great Zoe you should open a cake and coffee shop xx
Was it really 1 year ago (baking your mum’s birthday cake) that Ottie randomly started singing the alphabet song? She has grown up so much in 12 months, it’s incredible to see the change!
Ottie! Bless her little heart she really is a cutie, she has incredible speech for her age. I can’t wait to see her and Novie having little chats as they get older! 🥰
Happy Birthday, Tracey! We hope you had a wonderful day!
Gone are the days of the little plastic red table and chairs everyone had in the 90s.
Loving the videos. X
I'm so grateful for these vlogs, mentally I've been having a challenging time with anxiety and this has been a wholesome escape which makes everyday better.Thank you!

Hi Zoe and Alfie!!
My question for you might not really be a question, but I wonder if you could ever visit the Madame Tussauds museum and “meet” your wax figures! It would be so cool if you could bring your daughters and see what you looked like when you were younger. Wishing you all the best!
they talked about this in a vid already (in vlogust)! i dont think their wax figures are there anymore, they change them quite often.
I know (and appreciate) that these videos are just a snippet of everyday life, but they truly are so lovely! It is so nice to see how you two parent the girls.
46:30 the way Alfie is looking at Zoe
That was a fab video. My sponge cakes always rise in the middle, how do you keep them flat. Ottie and Novie are so natural on camera. Loved seeing your Mum’s garden.

I watched the video when you baked your mum’s cake with ottie in vlogust 2023 yesterday and ottie has become such a baking pro
ottie and novie are the luckiest girls ever cuz they have parents like you two
French fan over here. Been watching Zoe for over a decade now. Always been a comfort zone for me. I reckon this was a special vlog, the family, the baking, Joe, just felt very nostalgic. You and Alfie are such great parents, it's so inspiring :') ! Wishing my life will look similar in another decade
you guys have no idea how many smiles and laughs these videos have brought to me this month (and before)!!!!
Tracey is STUNNING ❤
You put so much love and energy into everything you do it’s so beautiful to watch. The girls will have such fond childhood memories well done xx 🌷🌷🌷🌷
The way Alfie’s hair is falling during the questions segment makes it look like he has a pair of glasses on his head😂
Your videos just are my forever comfort place! Thank you for the effort and for making this happen!
Oh Ottie is so adorable when she repeats everything yall say. It’s so cute!
Awwwww Ottie gets cuter every video. Her voice is so adorable and she’s so polite. Zoe you are the BEST baker wow. 💖😍
I need to book mark 7:40 because Ottie’s ‘Oh that tastes amazing’ is too stinkin cute
That was so so relaxing watching Zoe & Ottie make that gorgeous cake!! 🎂
I absolutely love that although Ottie is apprehensive about cracking the eggs you encourage her anyway & this way she learns & discovers she can do it. Amazing parenting 👏🏼 but how cute that she’s concerned about getting shell in 🥹 it happens to the best of us Ottie 🧡💖
I hope your mum had such an amazing day! The baking vlogs are my favourite
Wow! Just checked out last year's vlogust video and it's so cute how a year later it's birthday time again!
You need your own baking show, baking with kids!
I do believe kids should always have a little kids table. We would have to buy a new one every year because they would eventually destroy them especially my son but they would eat at it, do their crafts on them and I never worried if they were getting paint on the table or anything of the sort.

I eventually painted a mural on the wall that had glow in the dark mushrooms and all that stuff it was really really adorable and let me tell you those kids loved it. My kids are your age and they still talk about their little secret reading room.🍄
I want to be your mum when I grow up. Her garden is beautiful ❤
What a beautiful family. Such a wholesome evening for your mums birthday
36:49 not joe complaining about being the 2nd child 😂😂
After a day of candle making this is a lovely way to relax x
My question: sharing what you feel comfortable, what kind of wedding do you think you will have?
Just so grateful for you guys this month ❤ I look forward to these videos everyday! It’s gonna be such a change in September haha.
The birthday cake was beautiful! I applaud you Zoe!!! Ottie is so precious! Novie is just the happiest baby! So adorable!
you guys never fail to put a smile on my face, i could be having the worst day and these vlogs still make me smile 🫶
Otitie had me laughing so hard while telling Nanny about her bike-it was absolutely hilarious! 😍😍😍
Zoe your mum looked amazing on her bike! 💛
You mothers garden is gorgeous!!!!!
Ottie really brought Vlogust out here! That moment she told her nanny the secret 😂 you can’t fake that.
Aww, Ottie tried so hard not to tell. So cute.
that cake looks absolutely amazing zoe im always in awe by ur bakes !! im with alfie on opening a little bakery 😋
I’m having such a nice & cosy day
watching you bake a cake while I make the chocolate cream cheese balls you made with Ottie for Alfie the other day!🍫❤

Ottie and Novie at the beginning are both adorable ❤
Just made my birthday better 🥰
Question: what age would you go back to knowing everything you know and have done in your life?
That cake looks amazing, Zoe is unbelievable at baking ❤
hope Tracey had a wonderful birthday🎉
Hey I'm loving vlogust so much!! This question came to me whilst watching Ottie make the cake with you (so adorable btw) and in the moments you were addressing the camera I was wondering what her perception of us is? Have you told her about who watches the videos and who you're talking to/has she ever asked? Or is this just something that she's had around her forever so she doesn't even think twice about the camera? Can't wait for the rest of vlogust!!
Halfway through watching this with my 3 year old daughter we had to pause the video because she insisted on doing some baking 🥰🥰🥰
I’ve been watching you for years and I remember Caspar screaming at a birthday cake cutting one year. I love seeing that you’re still doing it nowadays 😂
it’s been so nice having vlogust as a little post work treat, it always brings a smile to my face, thank you both! 💖
question- if you were a food, what would you be and why? (additionally; what food do you think the other person would be/why?)
this is the cutest vlog yet this month 🥺🥺
Your giving the NATION just as much as Taylor swift. THANK YOU ❤
Hi! I have a fab question right up your alley!
If you had to choose someone to narrate your lives, who would you choose?
Love you videos and you and Alfie are such amazing parents definitely look up to you both xx ❤️
Vloggust has been amazing! Some days that I skip watching actually makes me happy because then I just marathon them! I have a new question! What’s something you can’t wait to do with the girls when they get older?
"I got a bigger corn than you, hahaha" she is so cute😂😂
I’m 17 hours late but what a great vlog this one was. That came looks so delicious and when Ottie gave away the surprise 😂. I live in London and where I live I see loads of green parakeets and goose flying bye. Wishing your mum a happy birthday 🥳 🎂❤
my question is: if you could live in any fictional world (e.g whoville, hogwarts, narnia etc) what would you pick and why? and a bonus question, what fictional character whether it be from a film, tv series or book, would you love to be friends with irl? x
This vlog was so precious🤍 Ottie is sooo cute, I melted the whole video 🌷
love waking up to these vlogs
Just watched Joe’s 1,000 vlog (laughed so much!) and wanted to ask if you could recreate/relive an old OG vlog, which would it be?
I don't normally cry over UA-cam videos, but I welled up with Ottie getting her own little table and bench 🥹
And now I'm crying at "you've got a bike...i mean present" 😭. That little girl melts my heart, and I've never even met her. Thank you so much for sharing her light with us xx
