Maren Morris' baby boy Hayes is celebrating six months on this Earth today (9/23).

Morris posted to Instagram this morning, "6 months ago today, our boy was born. He smiled early and stared at you intently like he had known you in a past life. He eats all the green foods I would never touch, and I think we’ve only heard him really cry 4 different times."

She added, "We are honestly just waiting for the spell to wear off and he becomes a terror, but so far, he’s just been our sweet, sensitive son. Happy half-year, Bub."

Songwriter Lori McKenna was one of the first to respond to Maren's post saying, "Old beautiful soul."

Since getting trolled online, Morris does not show her baby's face anymore online, but she did post this week in her Insta stories a picture of Hayes with a sunflower over his face with his maternal Grandmother writing, "Nana and her grandson."
