What options did you want? You have the best of both worlds right now. You get to keep your home if you maintain the payments, and have no further obligation in the future should you default on the payments and the property is sold for a loss.
There's no way to do a reaffirmation agreement now, but if you want to be obligated on the loan and have it reported on your credit report, you can refinance the loan which would be a new contract.
