It may be a challenge for the parents of six (Maddox, 10, Pax, 8, Zahara, 7, Shiloh, 5, twins Vivienne and Knox, 3) to get all the kids off to bed or even get a good night sleep themselves, but the couple wouldn't have it any other way. "Wanting a big family is one of things that brought us together," says Jolie, whose adopted children hail from Cambodia, Vietnam and Ethiopia. Adds partner Pitt, who hasn't ruled out more children – biological or adopted: "Always said if I were to do it, I'd do it big."
