For the first time in over two years, the White House released a family portrait today, citing that an update was needed because the girls have grown so much since the last photo in 2009 (the new photo is at right). Malia, left, is now 13, and Sasha, right, is now 10.

White House photographer Pete Souza took the new photo last Sunday in the Oval Office, after the Obamas returned home from church.
