Sasha and Malia Obama have lived in the White House for the past eighteen months, and mommy and daddy, Barack and Michelle, have tried to keep their lives private.  As the months go by, more and more is revealed about the lives of the first two daughters.  The Associated Press has done an article about the two cute, little ones, and gives insight to what their lives are like.

A lot of the information has come from the two people who have tried to protect them this whole time, Barack and Michelle. 

Recently, President Obama revealed that Malia now wears braces:

‘She’s my baby,’ he said of Malia, straying from his script at a political fundraiser of all places. ‘Even though she’s 5-(foot)-9 now, she’s still my baby. And she just got braces, which is good, because she looks like a kid and she was getting … she’s starting to look too old for me.’

Obama told an interviewer that ‘a month of it’s going to be taken up with Malia going away for camp, which she’s never done before. And I may shed a tear when she’s on the way out.’

Both girls get up at 6 a.m. to get ready for school.

In a separate interview, Obama said his daughters have savings accounts and they get an allowance, though he didn’t say how much they get or how often they get it. He also said the girls are getting old enough where they may be able to start earning money by baby-sitting.

The first lady is also guilty of breaching the privacy wall she and her husband put up around the girls.

‘Malia’s one issue for her father is saving the tigers,’ Mrs. Obama told an audience of young children visiting the White House. ‘So we talk about the tigers at least once a week and what he’s doing to save the tigers.’ Tigers apparently are Malia’s favorite creature.

Mrs. Obama also has revealed that:

Both girls play the piano; Malia also plays the flute.

Sasha likes to dance hip-hop. The girls also are working on their tennis game.

They are not allowed to watch TV during the week, and weekend viewing is limited.

The girls can only use the computer during the week if they need to for school assignments.
