Day 30: July 2nd: 1st Cody's Birthday!!!!

We had a late breakfast treat at Johnson’s Crossing Campground Services 203 miles from Watson Lake on the Alaska Highway.  They were noted by some literature to have the world’s best Cinnamon Buns and we had to check it out.  It is difficult to say anything is better than Scott’s mom’s cooking, but if we excluded Meme’s exceptional cinnamon rolls, then these would be fabulously delicious too.  They had raisins rolled in with the cinnamon and brown sugar which added a nice flavor to the rolls.

Day 4: Sunday, June 6th

It is a beautiful seventy-degree sunny Sunday.  Yesterday I was delirious from lack of sleep.  Today I am just cranky.  It doesn’t help that I am also dealing with an over-tired toddler and baby too.  I was so tired last night that while feeding Cody I fell asleep.  When I awoke I had trouble remembering where I was and where I was supposed to be putting Cody.  I try not to fall asleep feeding Cody because both Scott and Brooke roll while they sleep.  Although I have to say Scott has been staying in one spot a lot better than Brooke.  Brooke keeps rotating off of her sleep mat and the ground is not only hard, but also very cold at night.  We are going to try to put two  mats under her tonight in an attempt to keep her warmer.  Last night was the first night we put a sleeping bag in Cody’s play yard.  I was nervous he was going to get wrapped up in it and stuck.  He definitely seemed to stay warmer with the sleeping bag.  He woke up only twice before 5:30.  The first time was at 11:30 due to the amazing guitarist in the site next to us getting a little too loud.
