The third pregnancy is a charm for Jennifer Garner! Star magazine confirms that Jen, 39, is pregnant with a girl! Ben Affleck has always said that he wants a son.

Ben and Jen already have a daughter Violet, 5, and Seraphina, 2. Ben said that he wants a "little sports buddy."

An insider told Life & Style magazine: “He can’t wait to take his son to baseball games and play catch with him.” So cute!

Jen told Ellen DeGeneres, "It would be so weird to have a boy, and cool and different; and I’m sure it would be fun for Ben, he likes baseball and all that stuff." How exciting!

We hear it' true, Jennifer Garner, 36, and hubby Ben Affleck, 35, are expecting baby number two.

She is reportedly already 5 months along! The couple have a daughter, Violet, 2.

Both Jen and Ben adore being parents and she has always gushed about what a great father her husband is.

"I have to say, he's an amazing dad and together, she's a very fortunate little girl to be in that family.

You know how as a kid you picture yourself with a tall, handsome husband, and you imagine him cuddling your baby? Ben is like that, like, on crack. Violet prefers him to anyone. He's a teddy bear of a guy. Nothing makes me happier than to see the two of them together and her little hands on his face. He has a prevailing calm. Of course, he has the benefit of sleep."

Garner made it no secret that she was ready to have another child. She said back in October,

"We definitely wonder what it would be like to have another - hopefully, knock on wood, someday.

My job is great to have as a mom. I get to take breaks and then work in a really concentrated way. During that concentrated time, it sucks, but whatever."

Jennifer Garner and her little one Violet went out for some grocery shopping in Brentwood, CA over the weekend. Jenn's already pimping out Violet for advertising by having her carry the pack of Orbit gum out of the store. I'm kidding! Violet is such a mini me of Jennifer and becoming so flippin' cute... LOVE those dimples!
