Spencer Fitch discovered his three-month-old tot experiencing the childish wonderment of a fan in a moment of pure joy that is making the rounds online.
“I personally feel that it takes the audience back to a time where everything felt new and exciting. This is quite evident in Teagan’s facial expression!” Fitch told TIME. “She is very excitable.”
The footage goes from 0 to 60. At first, the baby is puzzled, but then its eyes widen at the phenomenon of the fan’s blast.
“Teagan experiencing a fan for the first time hahah,” he captioned the video on Facebook on Tuesday.
