My Jimmy is the same way! I try and get to sleep before 10:30, in bed by 9:45. He sleeps all night but he's been starting to get up earlier and earlier.
I used to keep him in his crate by the bed and put my phone on top of the crate (it doubled as my bedside table). My alarm went off on my phone at 6:20 and he'd get up then.
Then I started letting him on the bed at about 4.5 months old. He would sleep until my alarm went off. Then I changed my alarm a few weeks ago to go off at 6am. He'd get up once the alarm went off and walk around the bed looking over the edge.
Now he is bouncing around on the bed come 5:30am. It's OK with me, and it cracks me up because he looks like a little gazelle jumping up and over all the pillows, bodies and blankets.
Now if I can just get my GF to take him out in the morning before he wakes me so I can catch a few extra minutes of sleep!
