It's hard to tell in this video if Evan is making sounds in his sleep or if he's just wheezing as he breathes. Regardless of their cause, I think the sounds are pretty funny (as you'll see):
Steph and I have discussed the dream vs. wheeze question, and neither of us can remember what we thought was going on when we recorded the video. Evan certainly makes various squeaky sounds when he breathes quite often, so it's likely this is just another such case. Current medical research seems to indicate that babies do dream, though, quite a bit in fact. We both like this idea better, anyway, so we're declaring this the first documented case of our child dreaming.
But what is he dreaming of? Baby sheep, maybe? That seems logical enough (those sounds could even be an early attempt to imitate a lamb's bleat), although you have to wonder how he'd even know what a sheep is. We do have a couple of baby books that mention sheep (including a nice Touch and Feel one that I'm sure he'll love), but I don't think we've read any of them to him yet. Maybe humans are born with an innate ability to count sheep. It's something to think about.
