I'm sure every typical family has their disagreements as we all do, but they have a noticeably healthy relationship with each other as a couple, with their child, and definitely with their family members who all seem close. Ottie is curious, happily expresses herself, and is very willing to explore new environments...it's evident even through the screen that she's got a secure attachment style with her caregivers. A really lovely family🥰
You have no idea how comforting your vlogs are! They're so enjoyable, cosy & relatable. Thank you *Zoë & Alfie* for making VLOGMAS possible this year and making hundreds of thousands of fans happy & feel a bit of nostalgia of the times vlogging was huge (i was an 11 year old girl when i started watching you guys and now I'm a whole 20 years old still watching!) much love from South Africa 💗💗.
This made me realize how exciting it is going to be for Ottie when she can watch harry potter and actually see her mum on screen! what a cute experience that will be!!!
@@SphoenixBlue She is in the background of a potions class I think, in the first film 😊 I think she said she was sitting next to Seamus..? 🤷🏼♀️ not sure if you can actually see her in the film though, haven’t watched it in years 😂
I have been following you for what seems like forever! You and Alfie have been such a staple through my many chapters in life. From moving out to attend college, moving into my first apartment, many breakups, to now, I’m married and starting my own family. I can’t begin to say how much these Vlogs fill my heart with so much joy. Thank you for letting us in throughout all these years, sharing your life journey with us. Watching you and Alfie start your family and create these memories make me so excited to do the same with my husband and little one! I’ve been a silent follower from the beginning of time, but had to share this with you all! ❤️
Random but one thing I've always thought about is that you have ALWAYS come through with the links, even before affiliate programs! (lol I've been around that long) and you were definitely one of the first influencers to be transparent with ads/affiliates/sponsorships and I appreciate that. happy holidays ily guys!
i have been watching zoe since i was 10 years old and her videos make me feel so safe. especially talking about anxiety, i remember having extreme anxiety back in middle school and knowing my literal icon from then and now is so open about he rown struggles makes me feel so seen. I love this family with all my heart
zoe, you asked in one of your videos which video we go back and rewatch, so, i just rewatched the "meet our baby" video, and that has got to be one of the most genuine, sweetest moments. once the news was out, you and alfie both had this glow!
My husband and I are similar with our driving preferences. When we’re together, my husband gets carsick so he does all the long distance driving but he hates traffic and traffic lights so I do all the local driving. I love little gasps and oohs & aahhs that Ottie makes over things. Her reaction is so cute like when she opens up her chocolates each day from her advent calendar. I love the noises that she makes. The Harry Potter experience was amazing. I would love to get to it visit someday. Thank you for sharing your visit.
besides the fact that I have been watching your vlogs for so many years, basically grown up with them and your vlogmas being really special to me at this point, I've been super ill for over a week now and the videos make my day so much better.. looking forward to them the whole day! thank you both so much for putting all the effort into them and sharing these moments with us
My other half and I were at the Harry Potter studio tour yesterday too for his birthday… we did see you and I really wanted to say hi but I was too nervous and didn’t think it was right either as you were with your family so I didn’t want to bother you 😊
I just wanted to say how much I enjoy your vlogs, u are my favorite when it comes to vlogmas as well. Even though I am childless by choice, I still, love to see all the festive family fun you share with us during this time of year. Thank you so much to you & Alfie for doing vlogmas this year!
Am I the only one who was so worried when Zoe was walking around the snow in her Converse? As a person who lives in a snowy country I was literally screaming at the screen like NO GET WARM BOOTS😂😂❤️
After so much change over the past years (both in your life as well as my own) I didn't expect it but: this Vlogmas totally feels like one of the old ones! Makes me just happy and cozy, maybe it's even a new favourite 🥰
Hi, Zoe. Apply a very warm to hot damp compress to your face blemish for about 20 minutes. Keep up the damp heat on the compress throughout the 20 minutes. This will make the blemish go down or come to a head, and take away any soreness.
I'm sick and can't get anything done all day, but the only things that are essential to me are your videos (and my medication of course 😅) ... so warm and comforting ❤️
Dear Zoë, (English is not my native language so bear with me). I wanted to thank you for being such an inspiration to me for the last 10 years. We're the same age and both have a 16 month old daughter (what a coincidence!). I was so excited when you announced your pregnancy as I felt quite alone during it(my mum passed away a few weeks before I found out I was pregnant) My question is about weaning from breastfeeding, how did this go for you? Im about to wean my boob addict and was wondering about hormones fluctuating/if it was difficult? Did you feel like yourself after a while ? Thank you so much !
I’ve watched you for 10 years now and it’s so amazing to see you and Alfie start a family!! You have been a staple in my life for a long time since I was 14 and now I’m 24. I adore you both and Ottie! Thank you for all you do! Love from Florida ❤
so nice to see someone actually enjoying the snow - Helsinki snow level is currently at about 45cm and counting (a lot more than we're used to as well) and as we've already had snow for over a month, most people seem to be sick and tired of it by now, haha! I have to admit it's insanely beautiful, but really it's not that much fun having to literally lift your feet to the knee-level at every step when walking somewhere others haven't already made trails!
I think those are fox's footprints because they make a "pearl string" meaning that the footprints are in almost perfect line. That's how we learn to recognize footprints in Finland :)
I've heard you guys talk about Arthur Christmas a few times and I had never seen it before so I finally watched it this weekend, and I loved it! Definitely adding it to my annual must-watch Christmas movies.
Zoe, I love your vlogmas videos every year. I am a skin therapist and to help with your breakouts the best product is salicylic acid. It targets breakouts and oil on the face so the more you use it at night the better your skin will be. A serum would be the best option as well. Hope this helps!
I’m a Brit living in Alberta, Canada. We’ve had snow since Halloween, it’s not much of a novelty for me anymore after living here for 15 years, but you never fail to show the magic! Loving vlogmas ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I think for your breakout try using an acne patch along with some spot treatment (drugstore works best tbh) and also moisturizing even if you have oily skin is key. I use the la Roche posey cicaplast barrier one and game changing my acne has never gone away faster
This vlog was the day of my fiancé and I’s engagement anniversary! I’m obsessed with Harry Potter and we bond over it so much, it was a perfect vlog for a special day! Thank you ❤️
I’ve lost count of how many Vlogmas’ of yours I’ve watched now. But now not only I love watching both of my daughters (1 & 3yo) are obsessed and ask to see Ottie every day 🥹😍
I really get the sense of warmth and comfort in your home. Otti is growing so quickly. The Harry Potter experience seemed like so much fun! Holidays are coming fast! 💖🥰🎄👍
The same eye burning feeling happened to me when I took my makeup off, and I found out it was my mascaras that were stinging my eyes and not the cleansers!
I went to the studio tour back in 2013 and it looks so different now! there's so much more to it now! I have to go back to the UK for another visit soon!
The snow looks beautiful! Looks like wonderland over there!❄️❄️ I wish it snowed over here 😭 and the museum looks fun! ☺️ loving the daily Christmas Vibe vlogs ❤
I have a family tradition every Christmas of watching Arthur Christmas once we’ve decorated the tree! I think Arthur Christmas doesn’t get enough recognition it deserves!! I absolutely love it! I want this jumper but can’t find it anywhere in the U.K.
Heya I swear by the Aspect spot stop drops. I cut a cotton pad smaller and soak it in the drops then apply to the blind spot basically until the patch dries out swear by it ❤
those are definitely fox footprints in the snow! you can tell from the way it kind of looks like a very narrow dog footprint, and how they appear in a straight line instead of spaced out. foxes can be super playful and your garden is big and quiet enough at night that they know they won’t be disturbed. they might have been hunting rabbits or small rodents, too.
I have a question about Nala and Ottie. How did Nala react when you brought Ottie home as a newborn and how is she now with her? Asking because we just got a puppy but are also due with our first baby next July 🥹
This vlogmas is showing how much you guys need/should have a joint Chanel. Love the collaborative effort, there’s a bit of you both in these vlogs! Loving vlogmas. Thank you!
Try zinc cream on the spot under the skin. I get them during that time and zinc cream helps to soften and release or bring to surface what is underneath. Also, Arthur Christmas is one of the best Christmas films.
Loving the vlogs. These super chilled out walk around videos are super relaxing. Plus I feel like I’m really getting to spend a lot of time with you. Compared to vlogs in the past you all have grown up more and I’m getting to really meet the updated real version of you guys. Love it
You can tell that it’s a fox if the prints are like in a straight line! Foxes put their paws in front of each other so they’re all in line and not like next to each other. We have a lot of foxes around where I live and it’s very easy to tell when you can see their tracks in the snow 😁
I’m not a fan of cold weather but it always looks absolutely magical when everything is covered in snow. Also I would absolutely love to visit the UK and do the Harry Potter studio visit you all went on. ❤
I don't know if you remember but it snowed in the vlog that you took your nan there and it snowed in the yard and you got it in on video! it was such a sweet moment!
Kids who grow up in happy families are not afraid to explore but kids who grow up with emotional abuse or neglect show only a fleeting interest and are more wary of their environment.
Can I just say that Alfie has done a brilliant job with the editing. It still feels like it’s been done by Zoe. Love you both! ❤
I'm sure every typical family has their disagreements as we all do, but they have a noticeably healthy relationship with each other as a couple, with their child, and definitely with their family members who all seem close. Ottie is curious, happily expresses herself, and is very willing to explore new environments...it's evident even through the screen that she's got a secure attachment style with her caregivers. A really lovely family🥰
Any time Nick appears in the vlogs, he steals the show lol
"Where's the food?"
"Can't talk, I'm eating."
Nick is my spirit animal
main character vibes
I can see where Alfie gets it from 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Im so glad Alfie doesn't mind editing for Zoe because these vlogs have become part of my daily routine so far in December, I love them!
Ottie's facial expressions whilst trying to grab the sword is the cutest thing 🥰
You have no idea how comforting your vlogs are! They're so enjoyable, cosy & relatable. Thank you *Zoë & Alfie* for making VLOGMAS possible this year and making hundreds of thousands of fans happy & feel a bit of nostalgia of the times vlogging was huge (i was an 11 year old girl when i started watching you guys and now I'm a whole 20 years old still watching!) much love from South Africa 💗💗.
This made me realize how exciting it is going to be for Ottie when she can watch harry potter and actually see her mum on screen! what a cute experience that will be!!!
She was not on the movie in the end, they cut her off if I remember correctly.
What? Zoe in Harry Potter?
Wait Zoe was on Harry Potter?
This comment is so wholesome!🥹 Can someone tell me part she appears at? 💛
@@SphoenixBlue She is in the background of a potions class I think, in the first film 😊 I think she said she was sitting next to Seamus..? 🤷🏼♀️ not sure if you can actually see her in the film though, haven’t watched it in years 😂
It's so amazing to see how curious Otti is- she's not really scared of much, just really intrigued. So adorable 💗💗💗
How can she be scared when her parents have worked so hard at boosting her confidence. Anything she does is "wooooowww, ottie!" it is so cute!
The noise Ottie makes when she opens her Advent calendar is just the best !!!!!!!
Auntie Poppy and Ottie are best friends in the making😍 I also have a special bond with my auntie so I can totally see it in Poppy and Ottie✨
I have been following you for what seems like forever! You and Alfie have been such a staple through my many chapters in life.

when she's older I bet Ottie would love the illustrated versions of the Harry Potter books! they're the full books still but fully illustrated! 💟
Honestly Otti is such a good little actress like she does not seem very scared to explore
I have some jazz in the background, the tree lights are on, this vlog is perfect to have on while doing some school work. Thank you Zoe and Alfie!
Random but one thing I've always thought about is that you have ALWAYS come through with the links, even before affiliate programs! (lol I've been around that long) and you were definitely one of the first influencers to be transparent with ads/affiliates/sponsorships and I appreciate that. happy holidays ily guys!
i have been watching zoe since i was 10 years old and her videos make me feel so safe. especially talking about anxiety, i remember having extreme anxiety back in middle school and knowing my literal icon from then and now is so open about he rown struggles makes me feel so seen.

literally looking forward to these every night. Been watching yous 10+ years gives me the best nostalgia >3

Great content Zoe! Alfie is doing an amazing job with the editing. So many special memories to look back on with Ottie. Especially with the snow.
Obsessed with Ottie’s outfits! She’s so cute ❤ Getting that next dress for my daughter x
This is one of the best vlogmasses the snow is just so wonderful to see
The 2 vlogmasses I watch every year are both going to wb hp this year hahaha Allanna Davison also went!
I’ve noticed every time Alfie eats something he does this 👁👄👁 face with his eyebrows raised!🤣
I remember your first vlogmas years ago and thinking how pretty your garden would be with snow. Excited we finally got to see it.
Zoe in the snow with converse on is literally myself 😂
You, Alfie, Poppy and Sean should play a couples game. Like the newlywed game! Would be fun to see which couple knows eachother more
Hello from the north of England, north of Wales and Scotland in the UK. We get "real" snow most winters.
Love your family.
i’m enjoying this year’s vlogmas so much! i’ve never wanted to watch every single video so much so thank you
I’m living for these festive vlogs! ❤️❤️❤️ Thanks so much for making them. x
The snow makes Vlogmas so much more magical and cosy. 🎅❄
Loving this year's Vlogmas so much 🤩
After so much change over the past years (both in your life as well as my own) I didn't expect it but: this Vlogmas totally feels like one of the old ones! Makes me just happy and cozy, maybe it's even a new favourite 🥰
Hi, Zoe. Apply a very warm to hot damp compress to your face blemish for about 20 minutes. Keep up the damp heat on the compress throughout the 20 minutes. This will make the blemish go down or come to a head, and take away any soreness.
I'm sick and can't get anything done all day, but the only things that are essential to me are your videos (and my medication of course 😅) ... so warm and comforting ❤️
22:35 Have you watched the animated version of the Grinch by illumination studios with Ottie?! The illustrations are so cute and it’s funny lol 💚🎄
Dear Zoë, (English is not my native language so bear with me). I wanted to thank you for being such an inspiration to me for the last 10 years. We're the same age and both have a 16 month old daughter (what a coincidence!).

My question is about weaning from breastfeeding, how did this go for you? Im about to wean my boob addict and was wondering about hormones fluctuating/if it was difficult? Did you feel like yourself after a while ? Thank you so much !
I don’t even know what to do being this early! 😂 Loving the consistency this year and seeing y’all so happy!
Zoe: it doesn’t really snow much in the UK
Scotland every winter: *5ft deep snow*
I’ve watched you for 10 years now and it’s so amazing to see you and Alfie start a family!! You have been a staple in my life for a long time since I was 14 and now I’m 24. I adore you both and Ottie! Thank you for all you do! Love from Florida ❤

I love your eyeshadow at the start Zoe.. Also Otties outfit is adorable!! Loving these vlogs xx

I’ve lost count of how many Vlogmas’ of yours I’ve watched now. But now not only I love watching both of my daughters (1 & 3yo) are obsessed and ask to see Ottie every day 🥹😍
Try some salicylic acid serum or treatment. I get the underneath spots and that’s the thing that seems to help x
your vlogmas makes me so happy zoe thanks to you and alfie 🥺🤍
This vlogmas is definitely my fave of all of them. You're really giving the best content and I'm living for it
I look forward to seeing ottie open her advent calendar so cute xx
Lmao I called it in my head what Alfies exact reaction was going to be trying the ice cream. He always tries something, eyebrow raise, WOAH.
Oh dear when that advent calendar ends it will be a sad morning the following day xxx
I love watching Arthur Christmas it's so festive! Warner Bros looked amazing, your vlogs are so special 😍❤️😘
I really get the sense of warmth and comfort in your home. Otti is growing so quickly. The Harry Potter experience seemed like so much fun! Holidays are coming fast! 💖🥰🎄👍
You were so ahead of your time with those bathroom tiles and the single rose gold bath tub in the middle, such a gorg bathroom!
17:52 this is the one set of vlogmas videos where i watch every single one and love them all ❤
thank you so much for doing vlogmas this year! (and all the previous ones)❤️
The same eye burning feeling happened to me when I took my makeup off, and I found out it was my mascaras that were stinging my eyes and not the cleansers!
I went to the studio tour back in 2013 and it looks so different now! there's so much more to it now! I have to go back to the UK for another visit soon!
ovulating watching this absolutely sobbing at showing otti harry potter things
The snow looks beautiful! Looks like wonderland over there!❄️❄️ I wish it snowed over here 😭 and the museum looks fun! ☺️ loving the daily Christmas Vibe vlogs ❤
I love Otties excited noise when she opens her advent calender, adorable. X
I visited the Harry Potter studios in London a few years ago and this is bringing back all of the memories, I love it, thank you 🎉
I have a family tradition every Christmas of watching Arthur Christmas once we’ve decorated the tree! I think Arthur Christmas doesn’t get enough recognition it deserves!! I absolutely love it! I want this jumper but can’t find it anywhere in the U.K.

It looks like you have a bunny running around the garden :)
Watford is the place where I have lived for a few years and my son was born in that town. Lovely place, enjoy!
Ottie’s face when she’s pulling the sword😂😂😂too cute
I have a question about Nala and Ottie. How did Nala react when you brought Ottie home as a newborn and how is she now with her? Asking because we just got a puppy but are also due with our first baby next July 🥹
Alfie.. “that one looks like you in the morning”.. I could not stop laughing! Another wonderful, making me feel the feels video, Zoe! Thank you! 💕
Been LOVING this Vlogmas so much!! Also the quality of your camera is astonishing - those clips from the Warner Brothers Studio are stunning!
I love the Harry Potter studio tour, they’ve added a few additions since I’ve last been so need to go back
It's so cute to see Otti. It will be a lovely experience you guys can watch Harry Potter with her.
alfie is actually doing so well at editing like you do. to a T. love it !
This is the loveliest videos I think you've made... but WE'RE MISSING MARK AND ZO together xxxx
This vlogmas is showing how much you guys need/should have a joint Chanel. Love the collaborative effort, there’s a bit of you both in these vlogs! Loving vlogmas. Thank you!
Try zinc cream on the spot under the skin. I get them during that time and zinc cream helps to soften and release or bring to surface what is underneath. Also, Arthur Christmas is one of the best Christmas films.
this is going to be one of those videos that i rewatch a concerning amount of times later on
The footprints outside your house is from a fox🦊 they are so cute and playful!🥰

I don't know if you remember but it snowed in the vlog that you took your nan there and it snowed in the yard and you got it in on video! it was such a sweet moment!
Use tea tree oil undiluted if you can. I used to get those so often now it's hardly ever. I hope this will help.
You are just the best parents ever 😭 and Ottie is the sweetest, funniest little girly 💖
Whenever I have one of those dark, stubborn spots I use a brightening spot treatment (my fave is from skinfix) and it very much helps!
The day mark pops up in vlogmas I will screeeeeam
We've had this kind of snow for about a week now in Poland and everybody is already fed up with it 😆
Kids who grow up in happy families are not afraid to explore but kids who grow up with emotional abuse or neglect show only a fleeting interest and are more wary of their environment.
Zoe and Alf thank you for vlogmas❤️
