Let's Go Home Mommy





On July 3 2008, we busted the Little Princess out of her orphanage and nothing has been the same for her or the mommy! The first night was like she had been with us all her life. We had to stay in St. Pete until Saturday so we got to know her a little bit more. She was very quit in the orphanage but as soon as she was out she showed us what she could do! We landed on American soil July 9th at day earlier then expected. Once we got settled into home London went to sleep in her crib that has been waiting for her for over a year now. The next days were like a whirlwind with people wanting to see and meet the Russian Princess. Now we are settled into a routine and she is a mommy's girl for sure!


Court Date


On June 19th I was declared the mother of London Laura Sofiya Clark. The only problem was I would have to wait 10 days to get her. That meant I would be coming back home again without her but I knew that I wouldn't have to wait 3 months before I saw her again. On this trip London was at "Summer Camp" by the Baltic Sea. When we arrived it was very cold hence the snowsuit. We discovered that the little Russian Princess was starting to walk but only if you held her hands. She still just wanted to sit on our laps and be cuddled. The hour went by very fast and once again we would leave her. The best part was that she still remembered me!
