What a year. So many disappointments - trips, fest

What a year. So many disappointments - trips, festivals, Oktoberfest, Christmas markets, visits from friends and family cancelled - but wow it ended on such a high note for us! This photo captures my whole heart.

The pups are so curious and gentle with our newest addition. Brooklynn must be in eyesight of him at all times to make sure he’s okay. Finnegan is a little sad to be sharing the title of mama’s boy, but he’s still happy to share cuddles.

Bebe Mac has the sweetest smile and has given me a new meaning to life. “Love” doesn’t even fully capture the raw, intense feeling of happiness and amazement I get when looking at him ❤️

And my husband. My rock, my support, the best partner. Just when you think you can’t be in love with someone anymore, watch him become a dad! From sushi in the hospital 🥂 to a gourmet charcuterie board upon arriving home, to cooking a Christmas feast solo while my mom watched the baby so I could nap, to midnight feedings, and letting me almost break your very valuable hands during a crazy labor & delivery, I am so blessed to do life with you @tmccart3 !!!

Thank you all so much for your love, encouragement and well wishes! We read every comment and saw every like and are so lucky to have such wonderful friends and family! Okay sorry for the sappy post. Postpartum hormones are no joke 🤣 Happy New Years Eve!!!

📸: @liza.sunga - Thank you for coming Mom, we could not have done these past few weeks without you!!!

Introducing Timothy Cormac “Mac” McCarthy!! Ch

Introducing Timothy Cormac “Mac” McCarthy!! Christmas came a few days early when Mac made his grand debut on December 22, 2020 at 12:50am! Mom, Dad, baby, and pups (and Mimi all the way from Atlanta) are doing great and are absolutely in love!

Sorry for the delay in pics and replies to texts - I am just so smitten and can’t stop staring with wonder & awe and so much gratitude that this little baby is ours ❤️

20 weeks vs 38 weeks 💙 This dress doesn’t pop

20 weeks vs 38 weeks 💙 This dress doesn’t pop against the dark German door as much as it does against the Santorini blue one. It’s so funny how I swore it was “so obvious” I was pregnant and had such an “obvious bump” back then...if only I knew 🤦🏻‍♀️ Bebe McCarthy really loves kicking my ribs, so I hope he makes his appearance soon!!

We recently discovered Burg Lichtenberg, the large

We recently discovered Burg Lichtenberg, the largest castle in the Palatinate, and it was absolutely gorgeous! Unfortunately the restaurant, biergarten and museums were closed due to Germany’s new lockdown light, but luckily it’s less than 25 minutes away from our house so we added it to our list of places to take future visitors (whenever that may be).

It also made for the perfect backdrop for our maternity photos. Germany friends - if you’re looking for someone to take your family, maternity, holiday photos, we highly recommend @ericalaurenphoto 💗 She is amazing! She has such a great vision of the location and lighting, and she gives great direction for poses and action shots so you never feel awkward. Plus she’s so sweet and welcoming, it felt like we had been friends for years!

Bebe McCarthy, we are so excited to show you around Germany! Six-ish more weeks!!

This is thirty {{years old && weeks pregnant}} ✨

This is thirty {{years old && weeks pregnant}} ✨ So glad we got to sneak in one last bucket list trip to Poland last weekend before it turned red. Poland was wayyyy cooler than I expected - beautiful buildings, tons of history, such amazing food, and great mocktails!!🥂 It might be our last trip for awhile thanks to Rona and baby passports, but I promise to share more photos from Switzerland and Poland in the meantime (well...eventually, because wow pregnancy is exhausting)

Pumpkins & *bump*kins // the Hitscherhof Pumpkin F

Pumpkins & *bump*kins // the Hitscherhof Pumpkin Festival didn’t happen this year but their farm is still open every weekend through October, serving their famous pumpkin soup, pumpkin brats, and pumpkin waffles! We also may have gone a little crazy buying all types of pumpkins, squashes, and gourds in their farm store next door 🎃 #allthefallthings
