Jackson Sleep-Walking

This is Jackson--with his clothes on.
The other night we watched Inkheart for a little family movie night. Jackson, who was most insistent about renting it, fell asleep in the first ten minutes. After the movie was over the rest of us retired to the kitchen for a late night snack while Jackson snoozed on the couch (rather loudly as a matter of fact). A few minutes later Jackson walks by, bleary-eyed, and confused, and also completely naked.
Zak and I looked at each other. Cole went over to the couch and found a pile of discarded kid clothes.
Then Jackson returned, still naked, still confused, with this pinched looked on hi face. He walked around the kitchen's perimeter, then circled the island counter, and walked back into the bedroom. We all just watched him, not impeding or talking---Just watching. After he walked back out my mom followed him and found him in the bathroom--with the lights on-- running into the walls with that pinched look still on his face. Still naked. My mom helped him find the toilet and that seemed to solve his problem.
