Our big bed

We have this huge king size bed that is pretty far off the ground. Xavier sleeps with us and for naps he is usually on it as well. So we barricade him in with pillows and such and hope we hear him when he wakes up to get to him before he starts crawling around on the bed. We actually always hear him when he wakes up and he is just sitting up waiting for us to come in.
    Xavier went to bed this evening and woke up like an hour later. We tried everything to get him back to sleep. Nursing, rocking, patting on the back, but he just did not want to go back to sleep. He was sort of sleeping and so I started to walk away and he started waking up. So I crouched down. I wanted to see what he would do. I was crouched down for a good 5 minutes and all he did was sit up and make noise. He kept looking at the door patiently waiting for someone to come and get him. He made noise the whole time. No cries, just talking. I just think its so amazing that he doesnt try to get off the bed himself and just makes noises and waits for someone to come get him.
