Wild for Hayes!

A couple of weekends ago, we were blessed by a group of sweet Harlingen ladies who threw us our first baby shower. I could not have asked for a more perfect celebration, and the hostesses truly created the perfect soiree, complete with lots of animal print and "rustic chic" style, just the way I like it! I continue to tell Cody that I can still channel style into our little man with full assurance that he will remain as masculine as possible. Not sure he's convinced yet... :) The shower was just sassy enough for mama, and every bit fun for little man, and boy did we collect some goodies! We were truly overwhelmed with love and can't wait to introduce all of our special friends and family to Hayes in just a couple of months.

One of my favorite outfits!

Auntay Kay hooked it up with a toy storage bin, which she said could use a few more toys... guess we need to work on that, huh? 

Between hunting, football and baseball, this little man doesn't stand a chance!

Mima sent a sweet, handmade blanket that we just loved. Can't wait to snuggle Hayes in it!

Aunt Julie definitely won the award for most unique gift with her "elk skin rug". It is the perfect addition to Hayes' rustic themed nursery, and I am already having visions of Cody with it draped over his back as toddler Hayes chases him through the house with his toy gun. I could not be more excited for that day to come!

Grandma Johnson and Mimi- love these two ladies!

So happy Aunt Mel and Aunt Pam were able to make the long trip down to celebrate with us!

Daddy can't wait for his little hunting buddy to get here!

Mimi and Pap gave Hayes lots of new books and his first Charlie Brown doll

Football and camo... what more could a little man need?

One of Cody's favorite teachers, Mrs. Walker, gave us a sweet quilt for Hayes. We love it so much and are so happy she was able to be there with us to celebrate!

My sweet friend Christina made the drive from SA to celebrate with us, which meant so much to me!

Me with almost all of the hostesses-- Sarah Falls, Ali Colvin, Sarah Johnson, Leslie Farris, Cheryl Johnson & Pat Keltner. Thank you again ladies for the most perfect shower!

Aunt Pam, Bethany, & Aunt Mel are the best! Such a blessing to have them here.

Getting lots of love from Aunt Cheryl, who opened up her gorgeous home for us!

So thankful for this beautiful lady! 

Hayes is one lucky little man- aren't his GG and Mimi fabulous? 

We can't wait for the second celebration in just a couple more weeks. Hayes is already so loved and blessed with an incredible amount of special people in his life!
