A hilariously adorable photo of a baby's face on a Walmart monitor in Wichita, Kansas has been cheering up the internet this month.

It all came about when Nick Janzen, father to five-month-old Kira, decided to lift his daughter up to the television monitor while mom Ivy Janzen captured the moment in a photograph.

The moment was captured earlier this month on October 13, and was tweeted by Kira's aunt Keri Janzen on October 15 - and the response so far has been insane!

Indeed, the photo has since gone viral, with 1.3 million likes, 183.1k retweets, and 5.7k quote tweets at the time of writing.

"I just thought it would be funny so I asked Ivy and she said, 'Go ahead and I'll take a picture,'" Nick Janzen told Good Morning America. "There were Walmart employees standing there and laughing."

The doting parents also explained, per Good Morning America, that they had been grocery shopping for dinner when they took the photo.

"I saw the picture on Facebook and it made me laugh so hard I just had to share it," Keri told Good Morning America.
