Cute picture of Zahara! What a smile
May 15th, 2007 at 1:00 pm
how adorable looks Z smiling, finally I can see her happy. Brad is a great dad
May 15th, 2007 at 1:02 pm
Okay, so am I the only one who thinks that Z looks just like Angie, or am I just the only one saying it?! Round eyes, full lips… the kid is a knock-out.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:08 pm
These are the cutest pics of Zahara I’ve ever seen! She looks zo beautiful and happy
And the picture of the three of them is adorable too.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:12 pm
Wow, that’s the first time I’ve seen Z smile.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:12 pm
My goodness, now that’s just too precious! That’s about the biggest smile I’ve seen from her since she was nothing more than an innocent baby who smiled over the littlest things.
Too cute! ♥
LOL, and you’re not alone, sarawara. I’ve always thought she took after Angie, amazingly. She, Angie and Shi both share those full lips and eyes, at least to me they do. I’ve always found that unique that Angie could share something with her daughter back when she first adopted her.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:20 pm
Now, that’s a behind (Brad’s) picture for you! I love that picture of the 3 of them!!!!! Too cute!!!!! Zahara!!! I love that girl.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:26 pm
Such a gorgeous little girl!
May 15th, 2007 at 1:30 pm
Who says Pax is having a difficult time adjusting? I’m so happy for these children to be given an opportunity for a good life.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:30 pm
My heart is melting.
May 15th, 2007 at 1:40 pm
She is a DOLL!!! Look at her gorgeous face…I think Brad is an awesome Dad too….
May 15th, 2007 at 2:19 pm
Finally a smile from Zahara! I don’t think we’ve seen one from her since the pre-Shiloh days. What a beautiful shot!
May 15th, 2007 at 2:33 pm
Z is so cute!
Why do all their kids carry such large backpacks though? There are so many brands that make child sized bags that are safer for children to carry.
May 15th, 2007 at 2:36 pm
Zahara is such a cutie!!!!!! Good to see her smile. She is going to be a beautiful woman someday.
May 15th, 2007 at 2:36 pm
Z is adorable!
May 15th, 2007 at 3:29 pm
z is beautiful !!!!!!! what a treat she gave us !!!!!!!!
May 15th, 2007 at 4:04 pm
Brad Pitt has no butt! LOL
May 15th, 2007 at 4:31 pm
Lola
I think it is the cloth. He actually has a nice tight ass.
May 15th, 2007 at 4:34 pm
Gosh that girl is GRWOING so damn FAST!!! Lol! Awwww go Lil Mama with ya BIG backpack lmaoo!! Z is the cutest!!! Love her.
May 15th, 2007 at 4:34 pm
That is SO SO CUUTE!! I love her smile!
and I couldnt help but laugh when i saw her wearing that backpack (in a good way tho) its just so adorable its so huge on her!
<33
May 15th, 2007 at 4:34 pm
So cute! Pax looks like he’s doing very well. I bet he and Zahara are very close, going to school together all the time. Those backpacks all belonged to Maddox at one point, I bet they wanted to use their big brother’s bags.
May 15th, 2007 at 4:48 pm
Aww what an adorable smile!!Zee is a doll!!And Pax and her are so cute with their little bags!!It makes Brad looks taller!:)
I am also among the people who think little Zee and Angie look alike!
until I told her.
I remember talking to my mom about Zee and Angie, and she didn’t know Zee was adopted and she thought she was mixed
May 15th, 2007 at 4:53 pm
Oh my Lord that child is gorgeous when she smiles! What a cutie pie!
May 15th, 2007 at 5:09 pm
*melts* Zahara is sooooo adorable I could scoop her up and squeeze her!! What a doll!! I can hardly believe how tall she is now; I remember when she was a skinny little baby.
Sarawara – no, you’re not the only person who thinks she looks like Angie. I definitely see the resemblance.
May 15th, 2007 at 5:55 pm
I just adore this family and I just adore seeing Brad from any angle but especially from behind.
May 15th, 2007 at 6:06 pm
Oh my gosh those kids are so precious. I love Z’s smile!
May 15th, 2007 at 6:21 pm
I knew it. I knew Z was a beautiful girl with a beautiful smile. She seems so happy. I am still worried about Pax, he cannot speak English and now the school speaks French, must be confusing for him. I hope he copes. Still have my reservations about Brad and Angelina.
May 15th, 2007 at 7:07 pm
Clare: It’s Maddox that is attending a French school right now. According to Just Jared, Brad picked Zahara and Pax up at a different place: The American Embassy Compound. I am sure that they probably do speak English there (since it is, after all, the AMERICAN embassy), and that Angie and Brad know and are doing what is best for Pax. From all of Angie’s post-Pax adoption interviews, she sounds like she already loves Pax very much, and is commited to helping him adjust and doing whatever is best for him.
May 15th, 2007 at 7:22 pm
I just wanted to add one other thing (I am the same “Annoynous” as before, BTW): We don’t actually know that Pax still cannot speak any English. Little kids tend to pick up foregin languages extremely fast (even faster than most adults, in fact!). I am guessing that he probably knows several words and phrases in English by now.
May 15th, 2007 at 7:38 pm
The “awwwwww” factor in those pics is through the roof, but what a great shot of Z! I knew that child had a lovely smile when she chose to show it. I can see why Brad and Angie are so crazy about her. Just watch, people — when she is a teenager she is going to be drop-dead gorgeous. Ethiopian and Somali women are some of the most beautiful women on the planet. The have so much natural grace and elegance. They’re born with it. And you can’t copy it; you either have it or you don’t.
Little Pax looks like he is very much a part of the family, and Brad looks like he was born to be a dad. God help Z’s first date when she is 16 or 17 — Brad will probably meet the poor guy at the front door with a loaded shotgun!
May 15th, 2007 at 8:43 pm
Can anyone else picture Zahara becoming a model when she gets older? I think between her height (she seems very tall for a 2-year-old) and her looks, she’ll go down a catwalk at some point.
I’m used to her having a sourpuss, so this picture came as a pleasant surprise. She is so pretty when she smiles! I wish she’d do it more often.
May 15th, 2007 at 9:10 pm
So so very sweet! As a longtime fan of Brad’s I’m so happy he’s finally a dad. The man seems to live for his children. When Angie’s working he takes care of their children and when he’s working she stays at home. Sounds like a recipe for success to me.
May 15th, 2007 at 10:35 pm
Most definitely I can see Z becoming a model. I think she’s going to look something like Iman. You should see Iman on the June cover of “Town and Country”. 53 years old and still gorgeous.
May 15th, 2007 at 11:42 pm
I am glad to see a site that screens emails. I think the pictures are precious! I am happy for the family. The backpacks probably belonged to Mad or when they were buying Mad’s the other kids wanted one like him. My brother’s son age 4 has a large backpack also, it is what he wanted.
May 16th, 2007 at 12:24 am
LOL, the backpacks make them feel grown up, like they are going to the “big kids’ school”.
May 16th, 2007 at 5:37 am
So cute! Pax is a gorgeous little boy and Zahara looks so precious.
May 16th, 2007 at 8:37 am
I’m sure the backpacks are pretty much empty; children like to do what their older siblings do. So I’m sure they just let them have the packs purely for amusement purposes.
It’s so touching to see how far Zahara has come from that tiny little baby that she once was. As for Master Pax, he will be fine; children are like sponges when it comes to learning language. I have known of children who can learn a language fluently within a 1 year time frame. Having the other children around will make the process go even faster. Love, patience and time can conquer a lot!

Why do a 2 and 3 1/2 year old go to school?
May 16th, 2007 at 9:46 am
My son began school at 18 months – he had science classes, language classes, art and music classes as well as the “basics.” I think it’s important for children who will be traveling and moving around as much as these children to experience learning in as many situations as possible. What a wonderful opportunity for them! This family is so wonderful! I love what they are doing and how they live their lives and the smiles on these faces prove that it’s in earnest. What a beautiful family – inside and out!
May 16th, 2007 at 9:53 am
Me: we always call our sons’ daycare “school,” so maybe it is some kind of nursery school, preschool, or just fun activities for kids that age.
May 16th, 2007 at 11:52 am
Hard to believe anyone is complaining about the backpacks after seeing such adorable pictures, but so long as we are, I need to take advantage … my son is starting preschool in the fall and I am looking for toddler backpacks. HIP toddler backpacks (no CHARACTERS!) Any suggestions anyone?
May 16th, 2007 at 12:34 pm
Great smile on Z just wish Angelina dressed her in nicer outfits. I understand comfortable, practical clothes for children but she is a girl, her clothes are too often drab and plain. I just scrolled down and Denise Richards daughter was not dressed up but in pink and little Violet is always wearing light colored cute clothing or I see other celebrity little girls in really cute sun dresses.
May 16th, 2007 at 10:26 pm
Me: I was wondering the same thing about Zahara, but am guessing that, as some other posters have suggested, that it is probably a Day Care type place with academic or enrichment type programs. As for Pax, it doesn’t surprise me at all that he is going to school. Here in the United States (I am unsure whether or not you live here or in a different country), the vast majority of children start pre-school at age 3. Since Pax is 3 1/2, he is, in fact, pre-school aged.
May 17th, 2007 at 3:16 am
I LOVE the photo from behind of all three of them. BEAUTIFUL!
I think Pax looks alot like Angie and I see that Z does look somewhat like her too. Cute cute picture of her being a happy NORMAL little girl.
