Brangelina Loves the Babies!
By Manolo the ShoebloggerManolo says, the People magazine reports that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie Miller Thorton Sorta-Pitt (nee Voight) are not done having and/or acquiring the babies!
Brad Pitt says he and Angelina Jolie going to need a bigger bed – for their expanding brood.
“We’re not done,” Pitt, 43, quipped, acknowledging public interest in the family’s growth. “They say, ‘Any plans for a fifth?’ And I say, ‘And a sixth, and a seventh, and an eighth, and a ninth.’ That’s my answer.”
“We also made a 9-foot-wide bed” that fits him, Jolie, 32, and all four children, Pitt who is starring in The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, told the Associated Press. “Just big enough. One more and we’ll have to go to 11 feet.”
The Jolie-Pitt clan already consists of four kids, all born in Asia or Africa: Maddox, 6, Pax, 3, Zahara, 2, and Shiloh, 1. And, while one parent works in front of the camera, the other takes time off to look after them.
“We just take turns and make sure we keep the family together,” Pitt said, adding in an interview with USA Today, “It’s impossible for us. We’re run out of every major city. There’s just too many paparazzi. There’s always cameras in the kids’ faces, yelling their names.”
And the sixth, and the seventh, and the eighth….were does it stop?
The Manolo does not know. Perhaps we should ask their apparent role models, the Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar of Springdale Arkansas.
Actually, if one has the resources, and the love to spare, and can be the good parent, why not have as many children as possible?

Let’s do the math, assuming there are no multiple births: 9 months x 17 kids = 153 months of pregancy or 12.75 years. So assuming her first child was born when she was 20, she has spent about 50% of her life pregnant.

I do agree. Of course, I live in a red state where people commonly have more than two kids. I’m familiar with five or 6 families in my small city that have 6 or more. And these are not wealthy families, but the children are well cared for. It doesn’t take as many resources to raise them as news reports suggest as long as you’re willing to buck the peer pressure and forgo the expensive non-necessities. But my liberal friends are aghast just at the 4 that I have.
