I met a nice american guy 6 months ago and we got married 3 weeks ago, what do i have to do now to make myself and my daughter legal.

A. Legal Way
B. Fucking around the system with blatant disregard to the law

I have never seen or heard about anyone adjusting status on a VWP that also includes that they have their kid with them. This sounds like a situation for a good immigration attorney.
