Violet Helps Jennifer Get Ready for Baby

PopSugar — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 04:02:00 -0700

Jennifer Garner and Violet Affleck spent another of their girls-only afternoons together yesterday in LA. The pair swung by a children's clothing shop to stock up — with a soon-to-arrive fourth member of the Garner-Affleck clan there is shopping to be done. Even if there's another girl on the way, it looks like Violet's not about to make her favorite dress into a hand-me-down anytime soon.

Jennifer Garner Takes a Time Out For Herself

PopSugar — Wed, 03 Sep 2008 04:02:00 -0700

Jennifer Garner was back to her daily routine of running errands in LA yesterday, this time leaving Violet at home to get her nails done with a friend. After getting political at the Democratic National Convention it's time to get back to taking care of herself and her baby bump. While Jennifer is resting and getting pampered, at least she can take comfort in knowing that Ben's doing enough good for both of them right now.

Ben Reunites With Jen and Talks Babies

PopSugar — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 10:00:25 -0700

Ben Affleck spent his second day at the DNC helping pack boxes of food for the needy, and last night Jennifer Garner arrived to watch the speeches, including Obama's surprise appearance. Ben is probably doing a lot of schmoozing, though it sounds like one convention attendee he isn't jumping to call is his ex Jennifer Lopez. Ben was eager, however, to chat about Matt Damon's new baby girl. Affleck said, "I've kind of been texting him back and forth, and he's doing great and [wife] Lucy is doing great. Anybody who has a child is excited, I think, no matter what the gender is. They are thrilled. The thing that people really want, when you get down to it, is a healthy child." While we wouldn't be surprised if Ben would like a son, sounds like a perfectly diplomatic answer for a political event.

Jen and Violet Campaign For Cutest Mother-Daughter Duo

PopSugar — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 16:00:09 -0700

Jennifer Garner and Violet snuck in some girl time at the Long Beach aquarium yesterday while Ben Affleck is away at the DNC like so many other celebrities. Last night he hosted a poker tournament, which brought out friends like Sarah Silverman about whom Ben joked to Extra, "Well, I’ve been dating her ex-boyfriend [Kimmel] for sometime. Other than that, we get along really well." While Ben is busy having fun and getting political, Jen is proving that big heart isn't reserved for Violet — she's yet another celebrity who will be attending the Stand Up to Cancer event.

Jennifer and Victor Have a Lunch and a Checkup Date

PopSugar — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 13:30:52 -0700

Jennifer Garner met up with her very good friend and Alias costar Victor Garber for lunch at Orso and then a checkup at Cedars-Sinai hospital yesterday. Victor originally spilled the beans about Jen's pregnancy, although that's all in the past now that she's confirmed the news herself and there's no way she could hide that baby bump. While her husband Ben is off at the Democratic National Convention this week, it's sweet to see that Jen has her former TV dad, who also married the couple, as her stand-in doctor's appointment buddy.

Ben and Jen's Conventional Sunday Morning

PopSugar — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 11:00:44 -0700

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner made a standard Starbucks run in LA yesterday, but it won't be a typical week for the couple. Ben will be heading to Denver soon for the Democractic National Convention, and he's already got a full schedule that includes packing food for the needy, speaking out in a forum, and playing poker for charity. We know Ben's a busy man, but hopefully he'll find time to run into our Citizen ladies?

Jennifer Garner Has Another Baby Einstein on the Way

Molly — Thu, 21 Aug 2008 06:03:42 -0700

Jennifer Garner took her baby bump down the red carpet at the Baby Einstein 10th Anniversary Celebration in LA last night. While Violet already seems like a smart one it sounds like expectant Jennifer has her baby's education as a priority. Without explicitly making an announcement Jen recently told the press how excited she is to be involved in the educational project. Plus, while the new Garner-Affleck baby is still a few months away the Damon baby was already announced in the news, and I can't wait to see those Boston based babies together!

Jen and Violet Make Preparations for Their Birthday Boy

PopSugar — Fri, 15 Aug 2008 08:30:00 -0700

Jennifer Garner left the grocery store yesterday with a maxi dress, a growing baby bump, and one smiley Violet in preparation for a festive birthday celebration. Ben Affleck turns 36 today, and he'll have at least his favorite girls with him to blow out the candles. Sounds like even more fun than last year's farmers market b-day, and Ben's probably already looking forward to when there will be another face in the family to give birthday kisses and hugs.

Jennifer and Her Purple Violet Head to Art Class

PopSugar — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 16:00:00 -0700

Jennifer Garner had Violet in her arms earlier today as they made their way into a children's art class in LA. Violet seems well on her way to being one of the best-educated tots in Hollywood — she is a frequent visitor to her local library and she even has a few masterpieces to her name. As not only smart, but also creative and artistic parents, it seems like those dimples and smile aren't the only great things Ben and Jen are passing on to their kids.

Jennifer Garner and Violet Affleck were little rays of sunshine around LA at the beginning of this week. Yesterday the girls paid a visit to Huntington Botanical Gardens, while today they were at Giggles N' Hugs for lunch together. They may not be the most exciting photos in the world, but what's to complain about with this adorable duo taking advantage of a perfect Summer day?

Jen and Violet's Non House-Hunting Weekend

Molly — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 14:00:00 -0700

With Ben out of town, it was a girls' weekend for Jen and Violet around LA. The ladies were all over lunching with friends in Pacific Palisades, shopping and enjoying the gorgeous weather in Malibu. Violet sported the "it" dress of the season for celebrity babies to go with those always-adorable dimples. After a very lengthy house hunt, now that the family has a new $16 million home to call their own the Garner-Affleck crew has some time to nest before baby number two.

Jennifer Garner Is Blue, White and Red Barrette-ed

Molly — Fri, 08 Aug 2008 02:03:00 -0700

Jennifer Garner didn't have her little girl in her arms, but she had a youthful hairstyle with her two red barrettes in LA yesterday afternoon, where her flowing shirt only partially hid her growing baby bump. Her red, white and blue ensemble fits right in with her political weekend in Miami hosting an Obama fundraiser with Ben and the Damons. Whether it's a mini Jen or a mini Ben coming our way, baby No. 2 is sure to have his or her parents (and big sister's) big heart and big mind too.

Jen and Violet's Lemonade Days

PopSugar — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 16:00:55 -0700

After spending the weekend apart, Violet Affleck was right back in her mom's arms for a lunch date in LA today. Jen continued to flaunt that baby bump with her cute lemonade T-shirt while Violet showed off her own style with her hair clips. Jen and Ben had their share of fun getting fancy with their BFFs at the Obama fundraiser on Saturday night, but how could anything beat coming home to Violet's adorable smile?

The Damon and Affleck Baby Bumps Support Obama

PopSugar — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 07:05:28 -0700

Jen and Ben headed south to Miami to join the Damons to speak at a fundraiser for Obama on Saturday night. The BFF foursome kept things simple in black and white but there was no hiding those glowing grins and growing bellies. People reports that Jennifer gave a "witty, clever and funny" speech followed by Ben and Matt's more serious ones. Garner also spoke about how inspirational Barack Obama is, while Matt was all about change. The trip was a quick one as Jen and Ben made their way home on Sunday back to Violet. On a side note, looks like Matt has lost all that additional weight he gained for The Informant. That took like two weeks. So not fair.

Jennifer and Ben Fly South For the Weekend

PopSugar — Sat, 02 Aug 2008 10:02:00 -0700

Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck headed to LAX yesterday to make their way down to Miami for the Barack Obama Fundraiser they're hosting alongside the Damons tonight. The jet-setting couple didn't seem to be overly stressed going through security, flashing big smiles as they gathered up their stuff and Jen tied her sneakers. Guess little Miss Violet may be staying home, but maybe Jen and Ben can squeeze in some romantic alone time on the beach before and after the big event.

Jen and Ben Are Ready For Their Next Adventures

PopSugar — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 08:30:47 -0700

Jennifer and Ben may be gearing up for their hosting gig in Miami this weekend, but they still found plenty of time for real estate before packing their bags. The expecting couple looked so cute holding hands, even without little Violet's big smile. They're going to have a full plate getting moved into a new home before the arrival of Baby No. 2, but luckily both of these stars have plenty of experience juggling multiple projects.

Why Hello There, Jen's Baby Bump!

PopSugar — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 16:30:00 -0700

There was no hiding Jennifer Garner's baby bump today when the actress stopped by the doctor's office and met up with Ben to continue their house hunting in Brentwood. Jen has come up with some pretty creative ways to cover her growing belly, but we are happy to see it even though there's still no official confirmation of baby number two. Violet stayed home during this visit, but maybe we'll get a glimpse of the family enjoying more sunshine when they head down to Miami for the weekend.

Jennifer Garner wasn't flaunting her baby bump, but she did seem proud to show off Violet's masterpieces on their way out of art class today. The Garner-Affleck family has been enjoying the summer in LA, but this weekend the family is heading to Miami to host a Barack Obama fundraiser with Matt and Luciana Damon. Ben and Jen have been longtime supporters of Barack, and since both couples have babies No. 2 on the way, these celebrity parents are more invested than ever in the country's future.

Jennifer and Violet Are Perfectly Wholesome

PopSugar — Wed, 23 Jul 2008 16:30:11 -0700

A glowing Jennifer Garner had her best grocery shopping companion, Violet, riding in her cart at Whole Foods in LA today. The fact that baby number two is on the way is pretty much out of the bag by now, but no word from the family themselves leads to yet another peripheral source talking about Jen and Ben. The owner of a playground the family frequents gushed about the superstar couple calling Jennifer "the perfect mom" and Ben "totally insane about Violet." Seems like everyone wants to talk about the family other than the Garner-Afflecks themselves. Fine by us, we just love seeing them so adorable all around town.
