Hollywood superstar Cameron Diaz and her husband Benji Madden have been married for three years on the 5th January, and they have decided to turn to adoption to make their dreams of having a child come true, according to the Australian website Life & Style.

A source revealed to Life & Style the couple "have decided to try adoption and have started the process."

The source continue, "They want to adopt from within the US and are counting the days. Cameron is very hopeful. Though they are so fulfilled in every way, they feel this would complete their family."

"Cameron feels like the timing is right," the source continued. "She’s been asking friends about adoption and reading parenting books. It’s taking time and they have been so patient, but they are both bursting with excitement."

They have the same vision for their growing family. "Cameron and Benji would love a newborn and have both agreed they want a boy, but they of course will be happy with any healthy baby," the insider added.

Cameron and Benji married with a Jewish ceremony in her home in Beverly Hills, California, after being engaged for just 17 days. It was quite the whirlwind having only met seven months before, after being introduced by her close friend Nicole Richie.

Cameron is known for playing roles in a number of high profile films including** There's Something About Mary**, Charlie's Angels and the voice of Princess Fiona in the Shrek films.
