179 Me Again!

my thoughts on the next adoption are as follows:

Vietnam
male
infant to 2 years
shortly after shiloh’s 1st b-day

angie will adopt first and braddy will finish up in the states if they don’t run into any red tape. if they got married, they’d have to wait two years to adopt from some countries. but, i’m hoping they suck it up and tie the knot anyway.
=====================================================

I agree with your thoughts on the next Jolie-Pitts’ adoption and I think it is going to be in the summer as well. Can you believe that Shiloh is going to be 1 in 4 months?

yeah…she’s a few days away from being 8 months, isn’t she? i just found this online about what an 8 month old should be doing development-wise:

Expanded maneuvering skills and crawling accelerate a baby’s ability to explore during the eighth month of life. Parents are challenged with being able to maintain a balance between containing the child for safety or giving the child freedom to explore. Standing becomes more exciting than sitting. Eight month old babies can be kept busy for hours with quiet experimentation. They may begin to tear things up. The freedom to explore speeds learning and achievement at this age. More active babies tend to have a hard time settling down to sleep for naps or at bedtime. At this age, babies feel a powerful sense of loss and anger whenever they are separated from their mothers. New growth and development milestones occur by the end of 8 months.

The 8-month-old’s motor skills include:
* Crawling and pulling on furniture to stand.
* Needing help to get down from standing.
* Sitting without support for 10 minutes.
* Pinching with the thumb and forefinger.

The 8-month-old’s language skills include:
* May say “Ma-Ma” and “Da-Da” but not specifically to parents.
* Understanding simple instructions.
* Shaking head no.

The 8-month-old’s mental abilities include:
* Reacting quickly to situations.
* Showing interest in cause-and-effect relationships like making wheels turn or bells sound.
* Anticipating events not related to own behavior like meeting Mom or Dad at the door.
* Solving simple problems.

The 8-month-old’s social traits include:
* Shouting for attention.
* Pushing things away that are not wanted.
* Biting and chewing toys.

Introduce finger foods such as peas and pieces of cut-up, cooked carrots while feeding the baby. This will keep baby busy while the parent feeds her and may avoid disagreements over eating. It also allows her the satisfaction of doing something for herself. Use a playpen only for short periods of time with interesting toys to keep the child’s attention. Give your baby plenty of time during the day to crawl freely. Secure all potentially toxic substances, such as cleansers and medicines in a locked cabinet. Be patient and loving.

this isn’t the first time that Ted C. has hinted that braddy’s braggin’ about shaggin’ with angie. let’s face it–he’s a guy and he’s with one of the most desirable women on the planet. he hangs out with guys like clooney. i say it’s not too far-fetched that he’s walking around with his chest stuck out, crowing about his sex life. besides, i love that his bragging now implies he didn’t have much to talk about before…
________________________________________

…yeah, and whoever said Brad isn’t likely to talk about his sex life, he’s talked about it before remember — said he was living a monk-like existence. It was around the time of Troy when ‘Nose Job x 2′ didn’t come see him in Malta/Morroco.

If he talked about that - I think he certainly would let slip something so cataclysmic as AJ, I mean we know what he spilled to Innaritu, and he wasn’t even a close friend of Brad’s at the time.

I can’t imagine what he said to his bro or his buds.

Mind you there’s a way to say things — he could let it be known just how amazing it was, without being crass. I don’t believe Brad would ever be crass, just er…enthusiastic. lol

Thanks Gitane…I think i better wait until I go to the South before I try them.

As for kids, I think they should adopt first because like others have said, it’s tough on a body to have kids one right after another. I would definitely love to see Angie have another biological child with Brad. And then maybe by then, the naysayers will finally give it a rest.

Hey Gitane,

Thanks for the post! Man I really miss having young kids, mine are all grown up. ITA- with your post, which is a general description of babies at that age and their abilities. But every child is different and so is their development. All three of my kids crawled for maybe a few weeks and all three started walking at 9 to 10 months, they pretty much skipped the crawling stage. Which made our lives very interesting since our sons were 20 months apart. All we did was chase them around :lol: I’d do anything to re-live those days, we were so busy taking care of them and working that I feel I missed enjoying those moments. Well, I guess that is why we hope for grand-kids when our sons graduate and start their families :lol: Oh God am I going to spoil them…………..

I have a few thoughts on Brad telling friends that sex with Angie is the best he’s ever had-

When I read that Brad’s male friends (I didn’t see any female names listed) threw him a birthday dinner in the Wine Room of that restaurant, and Angie didn’t go, it sounded to me like his friends were “roasting” him. That just seemed like something that Brad and GC and the others would do to each other. During a “roast” like that it’s not unusual for there to be back and forth banter about the “roastee’s” sex life. And there would be other people around, waiters, busboys, etc., so the evening’s “highlights’ could have made it’s way to Ted C.

In regards to that trip to Vietnam – Angelina took Maddox for a series of meetings about the Maddox Chivan Project last week and although they’ve “officially” denied initiating adoption proceedings, I’ve received a couple of (as yet unconfirmed) tips from new sources there who insist that paperwork was indeed submitted and filed with the US Consulate in HCM City for a fourth child that the Pitts supposedly met and fell in love with during their trip to the country together several week ago. For what it’s worth, said sources claim that they saw the documents with their very own eyes and that the process should be complete before summer – standard procedure they say and notable because they apparently all expected the Hollywood Pitts to ask for exceptions and were stunned when they didn’t.

As I said before, still working to lock this down, let you know when I do.

^^^^

There was a gorgeous little girl (could be a little boy, but I think it’s a girl) sitting alone with Angelina Cambodia whose smile I personally fell in love with, and who also had me wishing she would be a part of the family. If any of what Lny says pan’s out then I guess it won’t be the little girl since she’s in Cambodia not Vietnam, and plus I really have no idea if she was without parents. I guess sometimes it’s hard to remember that every kid they hold isn’t necessarily an orphan lol.

On the other, when I find out I definitely will let you know and thanks for asking.

Got a question for my fellow BAMZSers,
Is Maddox named from the character in Life or Something Like It?(did she get the idea?)

Was Zahara Marley already named(I read that somewhere)?

If anyone knows, please let me know. Thanks.
