My son is looking forward to Baitcon

Last week, when dropping my three year old son Caleb off at daycare, I found that the morning teacher has used a bedsheet, some shelving and some tape to create a "tent" area. Caleb called out "Oh! Are we camping?"

The teacher said "Why yes Caleb, we are camping today."

Caleb ran over to the tent, went inside and said "We're camping Daddy! Come inside!" At this point one of his friends, D_ came in the door. Caleb called out "Oh! D_, we're camping! Come over to our tent and make ice cream!"

He then ran around in a circle, mimed what I think was pouring one bucket into another, threw up his hands and said "Wooooosh! Ice cream! Careful, it really, really cold!"

At this point D_ came over looking very perplexed.

This morning as we were getting ready to leave the house, Caleb looked up at me and said "Are we going to Baitcon today Daddy?"

I had to explain that no, we would NOT be leaving for Baitcon today.

This is a video of Caleb at last year's Baitcon:

Thank you for reminding me why I am going to all of the trouble of packing up stuff for the weekend.

And also reminding me that I need to bring my camera _and_ charger.

WAAAH makes me more sad that I'm missing it this year...

Oh well, my sister's wedding will be really cool too. I just wish they had been on different days B-/

heeee!

I think Kata's preschool teachers also got about why ice cream was associated with camping for her. :)

Have fun, folks, and see you next Baitcon. (Ok, see you before next baitcon, too, I hope!)
