Katie Holmes is reportedly planning to adopt a little girl.
The Dead Accounts Broadway actress is said to be eager for their six-year-old biological daughter Suri to have another sibling and is looking into adoption. A source close to the 33-year-old actress told Star, "Suri has been asking for a sister lately - she's even praying for one at night, which tugs at Katie's heart. Her goal is to have a new addition to their family within the next year."
The insider claims that although Katie has only just begun looking into the process, she has already consulted a high-end adoption agency and would prefer to adopt a two-year-old toddler in need of a home rather than a newborn.
Meanwhile, Kate is rumoured to be spending Thanksgiving with her ex-husband next Thursday as she thinks it is in their daughter's best interest. "Tom and Katie are determined to show Suri that they're still friends and devoted parents. They know it will mean so much for her, and both are happy to swallow their pride to make sure she has a fun holiday. Thanksgiving has always been a really big deal for them," a source said at the time.

The Holly's World star - who has been dating Pasquale Rotella for just under a year - has revealed she has started the process to adopt and can't wait to become a mother.
"I've started the adoption process. I really want to be a mommy," she told In Touch.
Although she recently spoke out about trying to get pregnant, Holly decided to adopt because she is too busy with her career to have a baby herself: "I love performing, and you can't really do that when you're pregnant." Holly has contacted Hold My Hand, an adoption mentoring service which help prospective parents.
Last month, Holly insisted becoming a mother is her top priority because she is in such a good place in her life: "I've wanted kids and that's something I'm definitely doing as soon as possible. It is something that the time in my life is right for. Definitely being with the right guy has a lot to do with it. My relationship is awesome. I'm happier than I've ever been in my personal life."
Evangeline Lilly Wants Eco-Friendly Adoptions

Evangeline Lilly thinks that people have to stop having babies to save the planet.
The actress, who is been dating her co-star Dominic Monaghan since they met on the set of Lost in 2004, believes people are procreating at an alarming rate and must slow down their baby-making or adopt to “protect” the Earth.
“For a very long time, I have had intentions to adopt. We have a huge population problem on Earth. We’re not going to protect the Earth the way we need to protect it if we don’t stop making so many babies.”
Despite her views on adoption, the 30-year-old beauty is desperate to experience the “gift” of pregnancy and will “allow” herself one baby of her own:
“I have always wanted to have a child of my own, and I will always want to go through the gift that women have been given to experience that, so I hope to be a mother at some point. I think I can allow myself one child - and from then on, I think I would have to adopt. It makes sense not to add to the population problem.”
