Sandra Bullock has confirmed that she has adopted a 3-year-old girl named Laila.

The actress announced the news in a family photoshoot with People Magazine, where she confirms that she has adopted the little girl who was previously in foster care in Louisiana. Sandra explained that adopting her five-year-old son, Louis, in 2010 "spearheaded this whole journey."

Sandra said in an interview with the magazine: "My family is blended and diverse, nutty, and loving and understanding. That's a family."

“When I look at Laila, there’s no doubt in my mind that she was supposed to be here,” Sandra adds. “I can tell you absolutely, the exact right children came to me at the exact right time.”

It was reported in October that the actress had adopted a daughter as she was photographed with Laila. She explained to People: "Unbeknownst to me, a photographer had followed us and taken a photo of us in line. The next day, I learned that a photo of her was being shopped around for sale to every outlet around the world. I had promised and legally agreed to protect her from something like this, and here I was chasing down lawyers - having them, begging them to keep her safe."

These pictures of Sandra with Louis and Laila were taken by her boyfriend, photographer Bryan Randall. See more on *People Magazine. *
