As an American, I have to say there’s nothing cuter than a little one with a British accent. 😍🥰

Can't beat camping with kids they are so full of excitement and will be into everything but such great memories for you all

I started all of my kids as early as Oscar. And everyone of them still love to camp and fish. Two of them are pushing 50 now. We'd love to reminisce camping with their grandparents. Precious Memories that you will have with your children.

I remember when Evelyn was born. Never got to see her in the interim but she surely is a beautiful little girl. But, WOW, I didn't know that you have a little boy as well. He is sweet.

your little sprouts are way too cute !!!! looks like a very nice place for them to xplore

Congratulations to you both on the birth of your son Mike 🥂🥂

Thank you!

camping in the van with the 8 year old is great fun. When he was 3 he would turn the van updside down

Making great memories. I remember our camping trips in the 70’s when I was a kid, happy times. Enjoy them, Mike 😊

It's great to see u with the fam ,and opening up to us ,it's realities of life crying babies and toddlers . Eve and Oscar are Ur spitting image and cute. Well done Mike and Emily .

That boy looks like his dad and how! I think Eve must be more like mamma. Hope you had a good time.

What a privilege, a real treat to see the other components of your family! How I remember those days when my kids were babies and toddlers. Try a camping trip under the stars with a telescope, that'll create many great memories too. Well Mike, get some well deserved rest and we'll look forward to the next one!

That was AWESOME! Don't know why I missed it before this. It was a pleasure being with the family. Thanks Mike.

Great to see your family Mike - takes me back a few years … ! ❤

Watching this brought me so much joy. I cannot wait to take my little one (2 yr old) camping!!!

Hi! Connie from Pennsylvania in the US. Thank you for sharing your beautiful family with us! Looking forward to many more family adventures!!!

Brave man you are! Camping with kids can get interesting.

So lovely seeing it all, enjoy all the Memories,how lovely.Luv from UK 🇬🇧

It's always good to get the family out and camp. Right on about starting them out young.

Once again congratulations to you and your wife on the birth of your son, he's beautiful. Another cracking vid Mike. It always gets me wanting that VW campervan even more when I see you in it. First time camp with the family, can't beat it I bet.

Congrats to you and the Mrs's are great keep them little ones in the outdoors. And thanks for the glimpse into your life. My wife and I get our 3.5yr old granddaughter every Thurs and Fri and as much as we can outdoors.

More family van camping Mike.

Just thought I’d say what a great job you are doing. I’ve been camping with one little one so hats off taking two.

Toddler voice with British accent is so delightful.

your babies are adorable! What a fun outing.

Oh the memories you're making with your family! Wonderful.

Wonderful to see your lovely family congratulations

Oh my goodness! I love that you can camp with your family. When my son was about six months old we went camping for a few days. Yes, nights can be tough, but the tradeoff is you can corral a baby in a play pen if need be (while building a fire or something). Also, you can keep your days low-key and even nap with the kids if you feel like it. I nearly died laughing at your comment "Let's be honest, it's the dad who will be out here." You know the deal. Keep up the great work. Sure love your family.

Fantastic stuff Mike. Everything I own seems to be covered in the kids stickers nowadays!! thanks for sharing, really interesting.

I'm really liking the camper van life you're sharing. I appreciate your hesitancy with opening your personal life, just do what you all feel comfortable with. Your family is great, every generation we've seen so far! And I can just see your kids getting into the bushcraft at some point, you know it's bound to happen. Cheers! 🧔‍♂👩👧👶🦚🏞🚐♥

Hi, Mike. This is a wonderful video. I don't wish to worry you but I'm sure I spotted your Dad sawing up pallets in the woods. Some people, eh! All the very best to you and your family. Take care and best wishes.

It's a greatcway to share the outdoors with your whole family. The little ones will grow into you love for the outdoors. This will be the start of it. Oh always wondered about your other family time life. Great idea to share its appriciated

Wonderful memories for you all.

Aw, thanks for this adorable video--so much effort!

That’s was awesome van .!!

Such fun camping with the family. My youngest was only 3 months old the first time we took him along in a 14 foot camper with his 2 older brothers. It was so much fun and such great memories. Enjoy your precious time with them, they grow up too fast.

🇨🇦Greetings from Canada! Camping with one child is challenging so an additional little one will certainly contribute to the chaos. I’d be surprised if Oscar wasn’t a little fussy in that environment because he’s bound to respond to disruptions in his routine, even pleasant ones. Eva is obviously enjoying the novelty of the situation and she’s clearly inherited your Dad’s merriment gene. Thanks for sharing this and having survived your inaugural overnight, you’re going to be prepared for the next one. Cheers!

Really nice van camping video with your family. 👍

Brilliant video

Word of advice, get an electric bike, for your camping trips so you can ride to the store if you need to without having to move the van! :)

New subscriber, came across you while looking for a VW camper. Amazing content, really made the decision easy for justifying to the wife after seeing this so thank you!

Never thought I'd see you using telescopic awning instead of ridgeline and tarp!

lovely family.

Big 👍🏻new subscriber from Arkansas 👍🏻💛🙏🏻🇺🇸

Yes, good interpretation. More serious, please.

Just wanted to say I’m sorry about your camp being vandalized it was a shame I’m glad they didn’t do worse say hello to your dad .

Been following your other chancel for years and so glad you made this new one for extra content. Mike thank you for opening up a part of your life you have kept private really shows another side of you and makes your so much more real and relatable. Keep up the great work and what a cute family. P.s. the 2 packs of coffee beans I bought from you were fantastic !

Great vlog - subscribed! Our kids are also called Oscar and Evelyn (Evie). My one bit of advice after having many broken nights’ sleep in our camper would be to take a small pop-up tent with you, and then if the baby is being noisy you and Eve can sleep in the tent under the awning instead.

Really enjoyed seeing the family all together. Thank you for sharing your adventures. Best wishes to the family. Take care.

It's much better, no fire in the car. No fire!!! Everything electric.And the estractor no a lot of distance from the food until estractor, so the bell very close to the food because is the distance problem about the smoke! On the top of the car the sun energy on top of the car like vitrocerámica. Hasta la vista!!!

Regarding your duvalay. I've got one. Had it for probably 10yrs. They're very good aren't they. But I keep mine unrolled in roof space. When away for few days. In morning. Roll it up. Then lift into roof & unroll it there for storage out of way. Sounds a lot of faff. But only takes me 2 mins total. I keep a cane in roof to push it flat at the back

Sorry to hear that. But don’t let that experience get in the way of your camping adventures. The hardest bit is getting the motivation walking out the door. Once you’re out there and camping you’ll wonder why you never did it earlier. Sometimes we need to get out of our comfort zone to experience the best adventures.

You shouldn't beat camping kids.
