Seven-month-old Carter goes viral in uplifting video thanks to 'best sound ever'

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Heart-warming family video has captured the moment a baby let out his 'first ever belly laugh' while watching his dad repeatedly rip open masking tape to seal a parcel. Little Carter Hazlewood is captured chuckling for two minutes straight.

Ross Hazlewood returned home from a long day at work last month and started packing up a box while seven-month-old Carter lay on the bed next to him. The 32-year-old dad unwound the brown sticky tape before little Carter, who has been known to be 'grumpy' at times before learning to love smiling, erupted in hysterical laughter, his tiny body shaking with delight at the sound.

In the clip, the tradesman rips a second piece of plastic tape as cute Carter watches expectantly - before again bursting out into infectious little chuckles.

Carter's mum Carmen Sherred, 23, shared the video on TikTok to the delight of other social media users, with her clip of the giggling tot racking up more than 54,400 views, more than 6,200 likes and 131 comments. Ross, from Bolton, said: "It was his first proper laugh. He'd had a few little giggles in the past but this was his first proper laugh.

"He obviously thinks the masking tape is the funniest thing in the world. It took me by surprise seeing him belly laugh like that. It was unexpected. I'd just got home from work and I had a couple of packages to wrap up.

"Carmen was busy and Carter was lay on the bed. I started wrapping this package and he just burst out in hysterical laughter. It actually went on for about two minutes."

In another part of the uplifting clip, baby Carter is giggling so hard he gasps for air. Delighted Ross has
