Remember Chelsea Clinton’s White House Childhood?

Yesterday, former (and maybe future) first daughter Chelsea Clinton announced that she and her husband, Marc Mezvinsky, are expecting, and so began a nationwide gestation period for a royal-baby equivalent to call our own. “I just hope that I will be as good a mom to my child, and hopefully children, as my mom was to me,” Chelsea said at the No Ceilings women’s forum at the Lower East Side Girls Club in New York after she announced the news. In honor of the occasion — and, perhaps, to guess what her future baby might look like? — click through the slideshow for a look back at Clinton’s own White House childhood, from tours of South Asia and Tanzanian safaris to practicing for The Nutcracker.
