Less than a month shy of his second birthday, Maren Morris’ baby boy Hayes is rocking his first pair of cowboy boots.

It’s rare that the country star shares photos of Hayes on her socials, but she made an exception to document the big moment, which took place during a trip to Fort Worth, Texas. The family snaps show Hayes giving his new boots a spin outside the store where he bought them, as proud parents Maren and Ryan Hurd watch their boy embrace his Texas roots.

“First pair of boots,” Maren wrote.

The Forth Worth Stockyards is familiar stomping grounds for Maren, no pun intended. The place where the photos were taken is just blocks away from Billy Bob’s Texas, a mainstay honky tonk on the regional and national country touring circuit.

Hayes comes by his flair for Western wear honestly. Not only are his parents country singers, but Maren’s also a Texas native. In March 2020, when she was nine months pregnant with Hayes, she played the famed Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo, meaning that Hayes was yee-hawing even in utero.

Sure enough, hours after purchasing the boots, Maren shared a picture of Hayes, still rocking his new kicks. “He won’t take them off,” she explained.
