Is she hopping as in jumping off the ground, or is she just bobbing her head up and down?

Sounds to me your bird may be just excited and wanting to play. May be a good chance for you to interact one on one with your bird. Use toys or other items that are safe when bird is hopping. See if distraction makes a difference.

I think everyone covered it well, just try the distraction.

Keep us updated!

no she just start bobbing herself up and down without lifting her legs...and the weird thingy that she does that only at the early morning...

Yup, that's just a happy behavior. Often it will be followed by regurgitating food (as a gift...)
