Looks like we may be "Going to the chapel and we're gonna get married......again!!

The kids were their normal selves this week. Cooper had some rough nights and was up every hour so I am a little tired. He now has a bit of a cold and still has not stopped drooling. I am thinking that he is teething but it has been a month of drool and eating his hand so I am not sure what is up with him. He is growing like a weed though, Steven says everyday "Mom, Tooper is getting bigger and bigger". Steven has offically given Cooper the nickname of Tooper so that is pretty much what we call him most the time!

As most of you know Steve and I are planning an adult only trip to Vegas. The first offical vacation with out the kids. We are going in August so we are getting our passports together. I filled everything out and we have everyones birth certificate except mine So I headed down to the registration office to get one on Thursday. While I was filling out the form I decided to get a copy of our Wedding certificate too just so we had one on hand. The lady is filling in all of the information and reading it all back to me. She says "Mulhall with one M-U-L-H-A-L-L, and both of you are born in Alberta?" I nod thinking it was just routine, then she tells me there is no certificate under that information. My jaw drops, I was shocked. I said what does that mean, she says that means there is no Marriage registered under my name or Steves. Yep, you read it right, we are not married in the eyes of the government. As I always do I use my sense of humor and pipe up that now I can marry the rich man I was meant to be with all along. I could not believe what was going on!! She told me either we have to find the paperwork from the wedding or we have to be married again!! I do not want all that drama again, the party I will take but if we have to get married again we are either going away or just going to a justice of the peace!! So as it stands today, Steve and I are unwed and our children are illegitamate.

Steve told everyone at work and they did not believe him because of the situation about fibbing who the real father of Steven was...but that is a whole other story! The first thing Steve wanted to do was have another Stag, I said to him, what makes you think I am going to marry you now?? LOL!! So needless to say we are both having alot of fun with this and laughing about it, I almost made him sleep on the couch since we are not married!! It has been a big laugh, Paige called today to ask "is uncle still my uncle?" I said "Uncle will always be your uncle honey". I am just worried that this may diminish my place in the McQueen family, no longer can I be Lorraines favorite Daughter in law....the competion was steep for that role and I worked hard to earn my spot....now it is gone!! LOL!! I guess I am just thankful this happened now instead of on our 40th wedding anniversary!!

So we are now living in Sin...and laughing all the way through it!!
