Eventful Weekend

Friday was Chase's 3-month birthday!

And on his "birthday" Brian and Chase were involved in a car accident. Don't panic: Everyone is OK. It was scary but it's all OK. Someone rear-ended Brian in a construction area on the highway. Brian's car is damaged but it isn't anything unrepairable. We're just glad Chase is OK.

One of the biggest reasons we know Chase isn't scarred for life is because the very next day he was laughing! Now over the past few weeks we have had moments when Chase would do something that made us say, "I think that was a laugh," but yesterday he LAUGHED. I mean he REALLY laughed.

We were in JC Penney's to find Brian some new belts. He was trying some on and I had his old belt slung over the handle of Chase's stroller. Neither of us were really paying much attention to him until I randomly turned around to see him smiling at the belt. We laughed, wondering what he possibly could have been thinking about, when all of a sudden he laughed! And then he laughed again... and again.... I started jingling the belt buckle and the boy burst into hysterical laughter. It was the most magical sound I have ever heard. We've been trying to get him to do it again ever since but apparently we're just not as funny as Brian's belt!
