My DS does it sometimes too, sometimes he looks perfectly awake but staring straight ahead and if you poke him his eyes just flop shut and he starts snoring... usually though they're only open a little bit and the eye-balls are all rolled back - freaky isn't it!

dd1 used to do this a lot, but seems to have grown out of it now.

So that puts paid to your theory, mandy
