Well, I got Mojo about that time and he is waking up about the same time as yours...I kind of wish he would wake up earlier too, but I dont know how...

He stays up late in the day too...till 12 or 1. I still havent quite figured out when he wakes up...I am still petting him while he sleeps and waking him for finger licking and stuff. I have just started to be able to take him out of his pouch without a lot of noise and he is fine with me gradually putting my hand in his pouch so that I can pet him and i held him while he was in his pouch and he explored my hand and stuff. It was pretty cool. He came a bit out of the pouch and stayed out for a while on my lap and then went back in...Ok, well, anyway, I realize I got completely off the topic, there, but we just started making these breakthroughs and I havent been able to talk about it much.

I think that your glider is probably just ready to explore, wanting to know what is up and what is all around him. Just be sure and glider proof and all will be well in that area.

Good luck:)

: His wanting to "make a get away" is probably him just wanting to explore. Let him go and explore but make sure to glider proof first! After he gets used to his surroundings he won't want to explore as much.
: As for him crabbing when you wake him up...wouldn't you crab if someone woke you up in the middle of your night? just food for thought.
: good luck with your new baby :)
