Who knew?

I could not believe how much Sasha had grown lately. She was such a peanut at the first inauguration with her Dad peaking over his shoulder to be sure she was okay on that very cold winter day and now she is nearly as tall as her mother. 

It seems as though the public hadn't seen them in a while until they pardoned the turkeys. 

They are good looking family, but, this picture was in the Sydney Morning Herald. Evidently, the Aussies find the Obama girls to be fashion trend setters.

Sasha Obama has done it again. (click here) Weeks ago the youngest first daughter wore a sweater in public that ended up selling out shortly thereafter. Now her recent ensemble at her father’s official Thanksgiving turkey-pardoning news conference has also generated headlines, and style watchers are anticipating that it may spark frenzy, too. This would simply mean that the 12-year-old is following in the footsteps of her mother, who is well-known for putting brands and designers on the map.
But aside from their fashion choices, there is another way in which Sasha and her older sister, Malia, may end up becoming role models and trendsetters for a generation of girls. They exude confidence not only in what they wear but also in how they wear it. Both Obama daughters are tall for their age and tall, period, and yet you never catch them slouching as if being tall were a shame. And this is no small feat....
