‘Three Times A Charm’ But Ben Affleck Is Exhausted And Overwhelmed

Ben Afleck

Ben Affleck’s third child, son Samuel, with wife Jennifer Garner was recently born and by the look on his face, things are pretty rough.

Jennifer is usually super hands-on with daughters Violet Anne, 6, and Seraphina Rose, 3, but this week it was Ben who did all the going back and forth to ballet and karate classes, while Jennifer rested and got acquainted with baby Samuel at home.  By the way, I love the name Samuel, it is really nice to see celebrities give their children real names rather than “Apple”, “Rumer”, “Blanket or “Coco”.

The Good Will Hunting star looks like someone who definitely needs a break, the weight loss, grey hair and haggard look make him look much older than his 39 years, time for a makeover! The couple have been here twice before, I’m sure they can handle it, but a new baby is a huge adjustment whether it’s your first or your third.

Jennifer and Ben are so down to earth and so low key, he would never have had this quiet life with J-Lo.

Later this year Ben will be busy on the red carpet when his new film, Argo, which is an upcoming historical action film about the rescue of six U.S. diplomats from Tehran, Iran during the 1979 Iran hostage crisis is scheduled to be released.

The couple who have two children and another on the way looked very much in love as they held hands while walking their dog.  Garner  and Affleck even stopped to steal a few kisses on their stroll!

Garner and Affleck’s two girls, Violet and Seraphina want to name their unborn sibling.

“Our girls are working on names. At first they were definitely Disney… It was like, Donald Duck, Minnie Mouse Affleck. And then they moved on- it was Peter Pan, Captain Hook, Smee,” Garner told Jay Leno.

Would you let your child or children help name their future sibling?

 

Ben Afleck & Jennifer Garner Will Allow Daughters To Pick Baby’s Name

Ben Affleck and his wife Jennifer Garner are seen leaving the Bel Air Hotel after having lunch with their daughters Violet Anne and Seraphina in Los Angeles. After lunch Jennifer takes Violet to dance class.

Pregnant-as-a-balloon Jennifer Garner has announced that she and husband Ben Afleck will drop the load of choosing a name for the unborn baby to their daughters, 6 year old Violet, and 3 year old Seraphina. Garner said that the girls are already working on the names:

‘Our girls are working on names. At first they were definitely Disney. It was like, Donald Duck, Minnie Mouse Affleck. “And then they’ve moved on. Then it was Peter Pan, Captain Hook, Smee. They’re coming up with lists and coming in and saying, ‘Let’s have a baby-naming contest! Let’s have a baby-naming poll! They ask everyone, because they just want to know. But we’re not telling.’

Ohh boy… things could get ugly for the unborn baby, whose sex is as of yet still a mystery. Minnie mouse sounds cool for a 3 year old, but how cool will that sounds in the school playground?

Speaking of the baby’s sex, Garner hinted at knowing but would not reveal what she knows. During her most recent visit to the Jay Leno show, she announced: ‘I would have thought [he wanted a boy]. At first I think I really thought so. And then he kind of said, ‘Well, we have girls. We know how to do girls. My girls love me. I’m the big guy in the house.’ So, now I’m not sure.’

It seems that the couple might be a little undecided about the sex they want their baby to be, but the point seems to be moot right now anyways.

Actors Ben Afleck and wife Jennifer Garner were seen  leaving the Bel-Air hotel after lunch with daughters Violet Anne, 6, and Seraphina Rose Elizabeth, 3, on Saturday. A very pregnant looking Jennifer Garner – she really does look like she’s gonna ‘pop’ any day now- then took lanky-looking Violet Anne to ballet classes in Santa Monica, Ca.

Afleck is sporting an unusual full-beard – he’s usually extremely clean-cut – but worry not ladies, he’s not turning into a cave man! His upcoming role in Argo is to portray former CIA technical operations officer Antonio Mendez. Mendez was involved in the famous ‘Canadian caper’ mission in 1979 during the Iran Hostage Crisis. The Canadian government managed to smuggle 6 American diplomats out of Tehran by disguising them as being part of Canadian film crew of the CBC with passports provided by the Canadian government. Mendez worked closely with the Canadian government before going to Iran and actively participate in the rescue mission.

Afleck & Garner have been happily married since 2005, after meeting each other on the stage for Daredevil.
