Look up "dawn phenomenon" using the search button here on this forum, or even google it.

From what you posted though, you don't have "typical" DP (where your sugars take off before waking up), but you have something similar where your sugars actually react to your physical waking...it's the same mechanics, your liver is pumping stored glucose into your system to supply energy to get going.
