I have a confession to make: Emmett is four and a half months old and we don't have his birth certificate yet. Nor have we sent off for it.
For those who don't know, getting a copy of the birth certificate is not an automatic thing. You actually have to pay for it. And as I keep forgetting to budget the $15 and, more importantly, I keep forgetting to make a copy of my driver's license anytime I'm actually in a location where that would be possible, it hasn't happened.
So, according to our records, our son does not yet exist.
Fail.
Birth certificates are so over-rated haha
ReplyDeletehahha! our 15 month old Evie officially existed 2 weeks ago when i FINALLY got her birth certificate! hahahha! so, compared to you I was an even bigger FAIL! :) p.s. love the new look of the blog!
ReplyDeleteYeah, he's definitely real. We didn't get Bekah's for 3 and a half years and certainly didn't bother with Clare's. Then John joined the Army and *surprise* they needed to verify our daughters were real!! So we paid them the $15 and they sent off for them and now we have copies!!! Not necessarily the most effective means to the end, but it's always an option. ;) LOL
