Why up so early?

This morning, via the monitor, I hear Justin in his crib fidgeting around about 3:30 am. I fall into a light sleep, and hear him off and on until about 5:00 when he starts crying. Because I have been spoiled by him and he has slept thru the night for over four weeks, I was cursing a little bit about having to get up. I get into his room and pick him up and realize why he was crying. Since he is a belly sleeper, his diaper had leaked and his entire front was soaking wet. I get him up, change his diaper and go ahead and put his clothes on him for the day. Then I figure that I may as well feed him his bottle.

At 5:30, my usual waking time, I lay him down in the boys bed (since they are both laying on my bedroom floor at this time) and jump in the shower. When I get the two older boys up to get ready, I ask them if they know where their brother is sleeping at. When I tell them that Justin is sleeping in their bed, they do not believe me. They were quite amazed to see that I was telling them the truth and they thought it was neat that their brother was in their bed.

Justin does not leak thru his diapers during the day, but since he is starting to leak at night, I will have to move him up a diaper size (at least at night).
