The power of CHEETOS!






Apparently, Cheetos hold some special power for one year olds, that I was totally unaware of until last Sunday. . .

Think I'm nuts? See for yourself! Hold a Cheeto out in front of Hannah, and watch her take off running for it!


Hannah got a taste of Cheetos last weekend. Prior to the introduction of REAL Cheetos (not the Gerber cheese puffs that she is accustom to), Hannah was only able to take a step or two here and there. Don't get me wrong, she is able to walk/cruise all over the place, as long as she has her hand on something like a wall, my finger, furniture, etc. But she's been too cautious to take more than 1-2 steps without holding onto anything. Actually, the problem is she gets too giggly and ends up falling down once she lets go and tries take those precious first steps! We celebrate each and every step, and laugh with her when she giggles and topples over. But for some reason, Cheetos have magical powers! Cheetos have allowed Hannah to double her walking distance! So, perhaps Cheetos posess some higher power that allows Hannah to overcome the giggles for just a little longer!


Either that, or she just didn't have any good reason to walk more than one to two steps until she tasted the cheesy goodness of a Cheeto! Hmmmmm :p Something tells me that it is the latter. . .
I can already see it. . .Hannah, years from now, running a marathon with a bag of Cheetos strapped to her waist instead of a water bottle! :)
