Jennifer Garner: Baby Bump Bananas!

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?

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!

BECKY SMITH @ 12/14/2008 at 12:49 pm

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.

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!
