Angelina Jolie is about to pick up new son
Bada bing, bada bang! Adoption is done.
Angelina Jolie arrived in Vietnam late Wednesday, where she plans to adopt a three-year-old boy.
Airport security officials told a photographer working for The Associated Press that Jolie was whisked into a car with dark windows and driven away. The actress was expected to attend an adoption ceremony with Vietnamese officials in Ho Chi Minh City on Thursday morning, according to adoption officials, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk about the matter.
After she receives the child, Jolie will meet with U.S. consular officials, who must review the adoption before a passport can be issued for the boy.
If all goes according to plan, Jolie could bring the child home by the weekend, officials said.
Oh, and by the way? Average time for adoption in any Asian country is around 10 months. I’ve got nothing against Angie for adopting again, but I just wish they would speed up the process for everyone; I think more people would be willing to adopt if it wasn’t such a hassle AND not so expensive.

If you remember in a lot of the articles it said this adoption was started shortly after the birth of Shilo. Putting 2 and 2 together, this is almost 10 months!!!
