Default Have you seen the Obama girls lately?

NO politics, please! Purely commentary!

OMG. Malia is almost as tall as her parents and she is like 13!!!! Wow, in the past few years she and Sasha have really changed! Malia is so tall and thin,she looks like a supermodel...Crazy to watch these teen/pre teen girls change so much.

Family vacay photo.

Another pic.

No I haven't seen them, and that's probably a good thing in a sense as the paparazzi are leaving them alone

They could just be front loading their growth so to speak. A lot of girls are basically done growing by 14-15 or so, some earlier. They are very tall, but isn't Michelle 6 feet tall? Her brother played and coaches basketball so I bet she is just from a tall family.

My mother was 6 feet and reached her full height by 14, she was 5'10" when she was 11 and in the 5th grade. I am not as tall, but I was my full height (minus about 3/4 a bonus inch I picked up in college somehow) by the time I was 14. I did not grow from the time I was 13-18 or so though.

What I would not give for those super long limbs.

They are beautiful (not-so) little girls. The first family has a papparazzi block that other celebs don't- the secret service who I would guess don't look too kindly on those in their care being chased by mobs with cameras. And unlike celebs, can arrest pushy camera people on the spot. I'd bet that leads to kinder and more reserved picture snappers.

They are SO beautiful. And I'm happy that the media is largely leaving them alone. That, and having their grandmother live with them, is probably really easing the transition to White House life.

I read somewhere that they are still required to clean their rooms and make their beds, so it sounds like their parents are helping them keep their heads on straight!

They are beautiful! Amazingly un-awkward for their ages, too. I think tallness is a great thing (I am only 5'4 and would love to be 5'8 or so myself.)

I love to see them with their parents having a "normal" life/day. They are beautiful.
