Another Child for the Jolie-Pitt Family?
It seems that Angelina Jolie wants to adopt yet another child - this one from Ethiopia. Angelina and Brad Pitt are reportedly traveling to Ethiopia's Wide Horizons adoption agency to find another addition to their ever-growing family. Does this mean that rumors of the couple going through a rocky patch are untrue? Of the new adoption, a source close to the couple says, "Angelina, in particular, feels very strongly that while Shiloh will grow up seeing the family resemblances between herself and her natural parents, and Maddox and Pax will have a connection through their birthplaces, Zahara has no such close-knit bond. Brad and Angelina hope that by finding a brother or sister for her, it will help Zahara feel more comfortable and happy in her own skin, and also bring them closer together." The rainbow family is comprised of Cambodian-born Maddox (6) adopted in 2002, Ethiopian-born Zahara (2) adopted in 2005, biological child Shiloh (1) born 2006 in Namibia, and Vietnamese-born Pax (3) adopted in March of this year.

Although nothing is finalized yet, Jessica plans to adopt from an orphanage in Mexico she says she has been going to since the age of 16: " My father was a minister, so growing up we'd go on a missionary trip every summer. The first time I went to that orphanage I was 16…I remember holding this baby who was found in a dumpster. I wanted to adopt him right then and there. I was like, 'Dad can I have him for my birthday, please?'" She plans to adopt before having biological children.
