Jennifer Garner: Baby Bump Bananas!
Mom-to-be Jennifer Garner shows off her super baby bump while picking up her daughter Violet Affleck from school in Santa Monica, Calif. on Friday.
Jen surprised Violet, 3, with a trip to some frozen yogurt for all of her hard work! Daddy Ben Affleck is currently miles away at the Dubai International Film Festival.
The baby is due sometime this winter in the coming weeks and the couple hasn’t yet reveled if it’s a boy or girl.
Any guesses? Will Violet be gaining a little baby brother or sister?

Adorable! She’s so beautiful!
Good luck to her and her family!
Violet looks so much like Jen. I think they are having a boy, named Oliver or something like that.
Still the media ho even when she’s bigger than a whale. its good she has a kid and another one coming because her own husband can’t stand her, look at where he is, on another continent to get away from her phony, media ho a$$
This litle girl is so adorable, unlike Suri Cruise who is very spoiled and throws tantrums, but then again you almost have to blame Tom and Katie for hawking her out to the paps every day.
I think it’s a boy.. I love seeing Violey
I think it’s a boy.. I love seeing Violet!! :) Jen is such a devoted mother!
why is she always carrying her?? she shouldnt do that because she is pregnant and violet is getting bigger already!
What a BEAUTIFUL child! She is so smiling and joyous it warms my cold cruel heart. I heard from Celebrity babies.com someone who knows someone who knows (!) Luciana Damon (Matt’s wife) she is having a boy in January 2009. If its a boy I think they will name it something like William or Joseph (although Oliver goes with Violet I think) If its a girl I think Lily or Savannah.
THAT GIRL IS TOO BIG TO BE CARRIED AND PREGNANT WOMEN SHOULD NOT LIFT HEAVY THINGS FOR THE SAFTY OF THEIR BABY
LOVE THE LADY THOUGH
Is it just me or is Violet’s hair getting darker?
Just a few weeks ago it looked lighter…
Her hair seems to have gone from a very light blonde to a darker dirty blonde. Maybe her hair will turn even darker since none of her parents are blonde!
SHE IS NOT AS BEAUTIFUL AS HER MUM BUT SHE MIGHT GORW INTO A BEAUTIFUL GIRL
MARIA DONT WORRY ABOUT SMALL THINGS IN LIFE, LOL IF YOU PAY THIS MUCH ATTENTION TO SOME RANDON GIRLS HAIR, YOU MIGHT END UP GOING GREY
RANDOM*
my God, She’s still PREGNANT?!!!
I carried my daughter around the same time of pregnancy. Sometimes you have no choice. Also, keeps you active during pregnancy, making the labor that much easier.
I think Jen should dump Ben so that she can get her privacy back. She was never hounded like this until she hooked up with him. She is a very private person and does not deserve to have her and her baby(ies) every move captioned by this invasive media coverage. She does not look happy and this should be a happy time in her life.
Love Jen!!! She is such a devoted mom. Glad she is having another child to love. Would be nice to see a little Ben, since they have a little Jen. Oliver would be a super name for a little guy.
Ben Affleck has been to Africa about five times this year. Now he’s in Dubai? He was out of the country when Jennifer had to go to court a couple of weeks ago to deal with the threat of a stalker. She is in the final stages of pregnancy. Tell me they are NOT having truoble. I want to believe they aren’t.
suri’s got nothin on violet ;)
violet is seriously the cutest celeb baby!
It will definately be a boy
It will definately be a boy
It will definately be a boy
Violet’s hair does look darker. I remember my daughter’s hair was very blond at a year to two years old and then started getting darker at two and a half. By 5 her hair was definitely light brown not blond at all anymore. Imagine Violet with brown hair! Then she really would look like Jen’s mini me!!! I wish they’d always keep it down. It’s so pretty and curly!
17 , if that’s the case why don’t we ever see Ben ? I think he’s the private one.
Violet looks like Michael Vartan
Suri is still the cutest celeb baby, hands down.
You have no idea how either of those little girls are like, #5.
Let Garner worry about all that, #10.
That’s a terrible reason to break up with your husband and father of your children, #17.
Maybe they are but you should remember that people have been saying they’re going to break up for about a year now and still nothing, #19.
Laura, #27 both Jen and Ben were blond as toddlers. Jen was blond until about age 4 (I’ve seen pics) and then her hair changed to light brown. Anyway Violet is a combination of both parents and is a very pretty little girl.
#28 Mr. Blonde, I would hate to see them break up due to invasion of privacy but at the same time, it bothers me to see Jen so unhappy knowing how much she values her privacy. She looks like she is trying to be strong for Vi’s sake, but she is only human and this can’t be easy for her living her life in a fishbowl. Simple task of taking your child to preschool does not have to documented daily. That’s all I am saying.
#25, why don’t we ever see Ben, you ask? Maybe because his ass is never around. He’s neither a present husband or father, I used to give him the benefit of the doubt whenever people would suggest that he is never seen with Jen and Violet, I figured he was working or something, but the truth is he is busy finding other things to do rather than spending time with his family. Jen should dump him, she deserves better, she can take care of two kids by herself, she already is practically a single mom anyway.
Sorry, I meant to address Laura #24.
Violet and Jen are both so gorgeous! And I am a huge fan of Bens. That is one beautiful family and they seem really happy!
A MONGOL LOOKS THE SAME, folks?
You have no idea how their family life is like to make such a call, #30.
Jared,
That’s not a baby bump, that’s a baby ball.
I just found this link to this actress that Jen use to babysit in WV!>!>?>
sceneinteractive.com/talents/KristenRuhlin/?movie=480_kristen_ruhlin-grace.flv
No they are not going to break up she needs him for his money and fame and he needs her for his image to try and fool everyone into believing how much he’s changed since he split with la lopez.
Wrong Mrs sunshine #37 if all Jen wanted was fame and money, she could have married Tom Cruise. He has more money and fame than Ben and he tried to hook up with her (and she rejected him) before he got Kate Holmes . Go figure. She was dating Ben at the time.
Violet’s dark roots are showing again.
Jen will soon bleach that poor child’s hair again- so she will have a “blond” daughter.
and Ben is always running away as far as he can get- so he won’t have to be with the money and fame digger who got prego after a month so she can trap him into marriage.
Jen looks like a great farmer.
She has huge hands and big build, so she would be good for work in the farm.
She should move to the rural part of the country.
Violet’s hair is definitely getting darker. Ben is in Dubai with Casey for a film festival, it’s professional, probably to promote their movie or “work” for Miramax promotion.
And he was in Congo once the problems with the stalker had been settled, the stalker was already locked up, so he was no danger to Jen and Violet.
I don’t think it’s because of Ben that Jen is hounded by the paps. The paps are after babies, todlers, young kids. They are cute, and sell pics. We don’t need daily updates on Violet or Suri. It’s boring. There should be a law against paps near schools, schools should be offf limits for paps.
I’ve said it so many times before that Jennifer dyes her daughter’s hair. Everyone knows when you’re born your hair tends to be lighter than the actual pigment of your hair color. It’s when you grow older your natural hair color comes out. Violet on the other hand, her hair is always changing color in a non natural look. One minute it’s platinum blonde and the other minute it’s a light a brown (especially the roots). I’ve see Jennifer’s baby pictures and she was never a blonde. If she was…please show the picture. Jennifer had the messed up teeth just like Violet. Braces did wonders for her…
Jen has strong genes because Violet looks just like her. Ben and Jen are going to divorce in the future. Whether it’s 5, 10, or 15 years from now, they’re going to divorce. The dude just never looks happy with her. Isn’t she another case of getting married after pregnancy?
The only time I ever saw the man giddy was when he was with the other Jen - Jennifer Lopez but that was a “show-off” relationship so I guess it was never meant to last but hey he was happy.
LOVE THIS LITTLE ‘VI’ - SHE IS LIKE LITTLE WOMAN NOW GROW UP SO FAST.
VIOLET IS HAPPY & SMART KID, I LIKE HER CURLY HAIR & HER RED LIPS SO CUTENESS, JEN IS A GREAT MOTHER.
Can this kid walk? She’s always carried around. Talk about spoiled.
Halo #43 if they are going to divorce I hope it’s before 5 or 15 years. She deserves to be happy and the sooner they part (if that be the case) it should be soon so she has time to get with someone so she can have more babies. I think she is having another girl for Violet and she can have a boy baby with her new partner.
No way does she dye the baby’s hair. She is not a vain person. That is totally out of character for her besides Ben would not allow that.
Adoring Fan, I agree Ben would not allow it but he’s hardly home to even pay attention. He probably wouldn’t notice anyway. Guys are like that. Hopefully Violet’s hair doesn’t turn back to platinum next month.
The way I see it, I think Jen is content with her life right now. I’m sure she was the one who wanted another baby more than him but Ben doesn’t look happy. Matt Damon definitely looks like he gets more “play time” with his wife. Sometimes you realize the one you thought was the one for you actually isn’t. They’re both boring and probably bore each other to death.
J.Lo would have never called off the engagement if he never cheated. I’m sure Ben is cheating right now. He’s never around to PICK UP HIS DAUGHTER when his wife is freaking pregnant.
Ben has been seen taking Violet to school or picking her up. You don’t live with them, so you don’t know what is happening in their household.
If Violet is carried around it’s because of the paps. What if she got scared and run away onto the street? Think before writing stupidities.
Violet is absolutely adorable! The Affleck’s are my favorite celebrity family! I bet Violet is going to get a little baby brother. :-)
Larice, Brad Pitt is way busier man than Ben and he somehow manages to be around his kids. Ryan Philippe who is waay less busy than the two of them still manages to be around his kids.
Ben is just Ben.
Ben loves Violet to death, wants her to have a sibling, and wants to be an involved parent, but he’s sick of Jen. He respects her as a mother, but he’s bored with her as a person.
Ben liked her enough when they were dating but he had no plans to marry her until she got pregnant when Jen was seen as the “next American sweetheart” since Julia Roberts and Jennifer Aniston are getting old. Ben’s rep was already hurt from the whole JLo fiasco, so he couldn’t risk damaging his rep further by refusing to marry Jen (since she was pregnant), and he wanted to be involved in his kid’s life (unlike his own father), so he married her.
Now he’s bored to tears with her, but I think he’ll stick around long enough for his kids to be old enough to really know him as a dad, then he’ll divorce her when he can get equal visitation time (dads don’t typically get that with little kids).
Until then, he’s in this marriage for Violet and the baby on the way.
Halo, how do you know that Brad Pitt is way busier than Ben? Do you have their timetables? You are just assuming.
Ben has several projects, he probably has meetings about them, has to decide, etc…
Sorry, but I don’t see that many pics of Brad with his kids.
And don’t give the Pitt-Jolie household as a good exemple : 6 or 7 kids in 3 years! Hello! Something is wrong there. How can they bring up so many young kids well? With the help of 5 nannies? They are nuts.
Larice, what kind of question is that? Brad is busier than Ben because he has movie to promote. He has been living on the road for a time now. He also had to deal with things in New Orleans. As far as I know, Ben just went to a red carpet event with Casey and he went to Dubai. You mentioned Ben might have meetings, meetings aren’t taken up the whole day but whatever…
I’m not the biggest Jolie Pitt fan but who are you to criticize how many kids that they have? my favorite all time wrestler is Bret Hart. This man came from a family of 12 children. Owen was the 12th child to be born and the first to die. It was kind of ironic…
People can have the amout of children that they want as long as they’re taken care for. Jolie was just a hot topic because she’s a bisexual former drug addict who use to self mutilate for closure of “pain” that decided to adopt children. It’s not a big deal with other people in the world. They have nannies for their own reasons - as long as we don’t hear about any of the children being abused…I don’t see a major problem.
Ben only went to Dubai to look for money. He needs financing for his film projects so he hung out with his brother. I think Jen and Ben’s strategy for not being seen to be photographed together is backfiring. THe paps are hounding Jen and the baby constantly. They hound Ben when they can, too, but the image that has been developing is that the two aren’t together and there is trouble. I know the main problem Ben had that was really dangerous to their marriage is his chronic gambling. He really loves to gamble and was in Vegas alllllthe time. I think he has cut way back on that now, but he definitely has a n addictive gambling problem.
From these pics it looks like the baby has dropped…possibly an early Jan baby.
violets a cutey. Maybe jen was carrying her cos it was dangerous as there were cars around at home time?? She’s pregnant not an invalid. She’s also a very fit woman and besides its her child she can carry her on her head if she wants.
When is she due ? It’s seems it’s a never ending pregnancy !
In my country I can say that I think that 5 or 6 kids in 3 years is daft, so I am writing it, because I think so.
One minute it’s platinum blonde and the other minute it’s a light a brown (especially the roots). I’ve see Jennifer’s baby pictures and she was never a blonde. If she was…please show the picture. Jennifer had the messed up teeth just like Violet. Braces did wonders for her…
*******************************
Find a picture where Violet had *platinum blonde* hair. I’ve seen pictures where she had blonde hair, but not *platinum* blonde.
And whoever said “Violet’s roots are showing” is smoking crack. It looks unremarkable to me.
Some children’s hair color changes. My sister went through about 4 distinct hair colors by the age of 4 and you can bet you a$$ my parents weren’t dyeing it.
I am a strong believer you never know what happens behind closed doors maybe they are very happy in private but I do do wonder from time to time why Ben hardly spends time with his family its so rare to see them together
Maybe she got pregnant a second time in hopes of saving her marriage ?

While I’m not going to speculate on Jen and Ben’s marriage because I don’t live with them and don’t them personally like you apparently do (yeah right!), I will however say that as far as being “boring” goes, I think you have that backwards, Ben is the one that is boring, Famke Janssen used to date him and I remember her saying that he bored her to death. Jen also said that Ben never wants to leave the house, she said you can have a great conversation with him just as long as you don’t want to get off the couch, these are actual quotes from both women. Jen seems like the more fun one of the two, she like her daughter are always smiling and seem happy. If Ben is miserable he should shoot himself, no one needs his sorry ass around anyway.
Forgot to say that posters on this site like on all other gossip sites are judging all the time without knowing the people they are “writing” about.
Every week there is an article claiming there are problems between Pitt and Jolie, do I believe them? Of course not!
It is interesting how you talk about Ben and Jen are the only couple
that do this.. Than why does Katie have to take Suri to work with her
at night…?? Where the hell is Tom .. He only has the Today Show
tomorrow. He hasn’t held his daughter in a long time..
They might have made a agreement that she picks her up from school.
And what is wrong with that NOTHING!
PS SHE IS STILL WEARING HER DIAMOND WEDDING RING AND THEY ARE BOTH HAPPY SO JUST LEAVE THEM ALONE..
She is so adorable.
I love that fact that Jennifer and Ben dress her normally and seem to be giving her a normal upbringing.
Violet will probably be a great big sister

Jennifer seems to be a terrific mom and wife. Wishing her family the best.

When Ben is in town he takes Vi to school and Jen picks up in the afternoon. Some of you folks should visit other websites and you would broaden your horizons. Also, lots of other sites show Vi walking as well. JJ seems to be limited in showing the whole story a lot of the times. BTW Ben got back from his trip yesterday and was dropped off by the limo at Vi’s art class to pick them up. That is a pretty cool thing for a dead beat husband and father to do. No?
yOU ALL SOUND LIKE THE HUGEST IDIOTS IN THE WORLD. WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT WHAT’S GOING ON IN THEIR FAMILY??? WTF????? THERE ARE PICTURES OF BEN HOLDING VIOLET FROM YESTERDAY!!!! THEY WILL PROBABLY LAST WAY LONGER THAN ANY OTHER ‘SHOW’ COUPLES OUT THERE!!! I’VE SEEN BEN WITH VIOLET MORE THAN SEEN BRAD OR MATT OR RYAN WITH THEIR KIDS!! WTF???????
To Laurence #51 you said that Ben had no intention of marrying Jen was did so because she got pregnant, if he proposed to her in April (on her birthday) they were married at the end of June and Violet was born December 1st of that year (labor was enduces as she was 8 days late) how do you explain the fact that the baby was born less that 8 months after the engagement. Try another spin, that one isn’t working.
:lol: Bennifer fans seem really obsessed with Brangelina. :lol:
C’mon ! Why even compare these two family together? You do realize that Violet is the one who gets photographed everyday not Brangelina’s kids?
This is why Some people ask about Ben as a present picture. Because we see almost daily picture of Violet. So we can actually tell.
But BP on the other hand or even Matt and Ryan kids don’t get photographed daily.
C’mon deal with it. Since last year When she was promoting her two movies , We hardly saw them together. There was picture of her with Violet last year in NYC daily. And she was the one working but Ben was hardly the one who would accompany them.
We don’t need rags and tabloids and gossip to tell us this. We have been following celebs for a long time. We know when couple don’t make such a effort to be together , it means there is actually a problem in relationship. But whatever. Let her have her kids.
She’s been dangerously carrying this little girl on her abdomen and hip far too long now and should have made her walk once she began preschool. Look how far along she is and the emotional trauma which will occur when she cannot carry her once the new baby arrives. Does she not trust her to walk alongside and hold her hand?
Why can’t Jen carry little Violet? Don’t hate on Jen, hate on the paps who can possibly step over the little child when they are constantly hovering over this family.
I have no idea why I feel the need to defend them, probably because I just adoooore little Violet!
They already had super cute baby. I can’t imagine this one being any less of a cutie. Maybe a boy? We shall see soon.
Let’s just hope Jen gets to keep the new look cleavage. I bet she is hoping too, although statistics have proven will revert back to her old self. Afterall, herself, Debra Messing and Kate Hudson are known to be the flattest chested women in Hollywood.
wat a nice little girl,so cheerful all day, she is so lucky to have such a loving mum like mine too.That she still caeeies her about even when she is as heavy as that
