I took this photo during the game before things all went to heck. I really thought that the Pats would pull it off but as the game wore on it just wasn’t meant to be. And I didn’t even let Eva wear the hat from Karen yet, now that the Super Bowl is over she can wear it all she wants. Eva did look cute in her Tom Brady onesie and pats bib though.

The title of this one doesn’t exactly go with the top photo but rather about the one below. You see I won the shirt that says “I’m Kind of a Big Deal” from a contest at FuelMyBlog and snorgtees. Actually a few of my blogs won shirts but I only got one in the mail. I laughed at the shirt because, let’s face it, I am in no way any sort of Big Deal. And to prove it, after I put it on I had to give Eva a diaper change, I thought to myself. This is funny because if I was a Big Deal I probably wouldn’t be a diaper changing dad. I thought, this would be a funny picture depicting just how big a deal I am but no one wants to see me changing diapers. But I still needed a photo for Kevin to put in the FuelMyBlog collage of photos of the winners and their big deal shirts.

Eva did want to let the world know what a big deal her daddy is so as the Super Bowl went on and she got fussy I was holding her, rocking her and making her laugh. Then she puked on me, on my new shirt. And I thought, yes, this is exactly what me wearing a “I’m Kind of a Big Deal” shirt is all about. So Mom snapped our photo. Just look at the expression on Eva’s face. She is tickled by her work.
