Jennifer Garner's Playdate Pals

Jennifer Garner's Playdate Pals

Mom-of-two Jennifer Garner was seen with her daughters - Violet, 5 in December, and Seraphina, 2 in January - as they arrived at a friend's house for a playdate on Thursday (November 11).

Seraphina gave the paparazzi a soother-smile as mama headed into the Los Angeles home. Violet also caught glimpse of the nearby photographers. These two girls are so used to seeing the shutterbugs everywhere they go!

The girls' father is Jen's hubby of five years, Good Will Hunting star Ben Affleck.

Seraphina's getting so big! :-o And Violet's beautiful, as always. :)

I wonder who's house it is?

These children always look happy, so Jennifer Garner is doing well by them. I do find it odd that she carries her almost-five-year-old child out of her car seat -- Surely Violet is capable of walking out of the car on her own. It's obviously Jennifer's choice, she is the mom -- but it strikes me as treating Violet like a toddler for way too long.

Dare I say that little Sera is definitely more beautiful than Violet?

Both girls are beautiful and look very much alike, Seraphina still has a lot of baby in her and doesn't smile as big as Violet but they could actually be twins. As adults, they will look exactly the same. I think the same could be said for Shiloh and Vivienne. (They have the same features as their older sisters)

I don't think they look alike at all. Sera looks so much more like Ben. As for Shiloh and Vivienne they are obvioulsly sisters but Shiloh is a lot prettier. Sadly Vivienne looks like she has down syndrome.

Seraphina has an ugly name but she's one of the prettiest celeb babies, and so so cute!

Bird said:

I don't understand how the paparazzi catch them going into a friend's house. Does Jennifer Garner call them and tell them where she's going? Is the house wedged between a hair salon and a tanning salon where the photographers happen to be hanging out?

Anonymous said:

Maybe it's because the paparazzi literally sit outside of celebrities houses and follow them wherever they go. Ever think of that?

Bird said:

Actually, I hadn't thought of that. Makes sense. Sounds pretty unnerving.

mackenzie said:

I like the name Seraphina I think Harper is an ugly name.

Alma said:

What about Honor?

This website conveniently erased my comment about how they should give Jennifer Garner and kids photos a rest. The paparazzi follow this woman into her driveway and shoot her and sites like these not only condone that kind of behavior, they pay for the photos to encourage future stalking.

She needs to stop treating the oldest kid like a baby. She lets them suck on the paci way too long. It discourages verbal interaction. Over indulgent parent in my opinion, which creates monsters.

So what you're saying is, your parents were overindulgent and let you suck on a pacifier way too long?

she treats violet like shes a baby.

You're projecting. I'm not the one who thinks it's appropriate to tell a total stranger how to take care of her children.

Sarah G. said:

How is she treating Violet like a baby? By lifting her out of the car? Yeah. What a horrible Mother.

Anonymous said:

She is going to be FIVE years old in a couple weeks. In sure she can get out of a car by herself.

Anonymous said:

Wouldn't we all want to be treated in such a lovely way? I think these girls with negative comments are jealous of the warm, loving mother that Jennifer is.

And Angelina is still carrying Zahara who is turning 6 soon and still sucks her thumb. Are you picking on them too?

Haley said:

Classic "helicopter" mom.

I don't get what this obsession is with Jennifer carrying Violet. It's her child. Mothers often carry their children. Get over it. Four is still little, four-year-olds still get tired and need cuddles, and besides, it might be simply that the paparazzi unsettle Violet a bit so she wants to be close to her mama to feel safe. God, I still carry my 6-year-old sister sometimes. What would you people have to say about that?!

she will be 5 in a couple weeks. and if you have a 6 year old sister..you must be about 9? get lost.

Anonymous said:

The comment is correct, she is 4 yo. She will be 5 yo in December, but for now she is 4 yo.

Amazed that you can tell a persons age from their comment and age of their sibling. You must be very proud.

'Get lost' please remember 'it's nice to be nice' x

and it is a good assumption that the person is a kid...its not everday an adult has a 6 year old sibiling.

Daniella said:

My best friend is 21 years old & her youngest brother is only 5 years old. She is the oldest child of five children. My own youngest brother is over 10 years younger than me. Have you ever heard of a large age difference in siblings? It does happen sometimes....quite frequently, actually.

Anonymous said:

yeah they are usually unplanned pregnancies.

Cari said:

What's your point?

Daniella said:

I agree with Cari, what's your point? Does that make the child any less loved or any less our sibling? And by the way, both my youngest brother & my friend's youngest brother were planned.

Anonymous said:

of course thats what your parents are gonna tell you. face it kid....they were MISTAKES!!!!!!!!

Daniella said:

Yeah, obviously since I knew my parents were planning another kid two or three years before his birth, he was completely & utterly unplanned. Same goes for my friend. Stop assuming stuff, it simply makes a complete ass out of you. Ciao!

Audrey said:

It's been quite while since we've seen Violet with a pacifier. It is probably safe to say she doesn't use it anymore. My daughter lifts her son (6 yrs) out of their SUV because it's faster which is what it looked like happened here. And I say, if you want to carry your child and can, then do it. Time passes quick enough and it will soon be impossible.

And as for messing up speach, my granddaughter talked out of the side of her mouth with a paci in it at 3 1/2 like a pro.

Sunny Sue said:

OMg, you guys are so weird. You know these people aren't your friends, right? And they don't care what you would or wouldn't do if you were parenting Violet?

Anonymous said:

and you know that how?

I'm not going to enter into any arguments but I would like to say, I think Jennifer Garner is an awesome mom and should be commented for the way in which she parents her kids considering practically every move she makes is photographed. (That alone would drive be batty) Someone is bound to disagree with her methods, but she goes right on during as she says in all her interviews, doing the best that she can. Kudos to her.

I will also say that her kids always look very content and comfortable in her care. She must be doing something right.

Sarah G. said:

Well said. :)

second that

My 16 year old cousin still likes to sit in my lap and her older sister's, who's the same age as I, lap.

By the way, I think Jen looks really pretty in this pics. Her tennis shoes are the only thing I'm not fond of.

Gorgeous mother and daughters! Jennifer seems like a wonderful mother, so down to earth. Violet and Seraphina are absolutely adorable!

Ben & Jen's mix didn't create cute kids at all.

Jen ruined it!

How sad that you have to take out your resentment you and/or your children are ugly on total strangers you don't even know. I mean, I'm sorry you have to go through life with people telling you you are ugly, but maybe you should use your anger in more productive ways.

Heather said:

Violet and Seraphina are adorable, but I just have to say, Jennifer has an butt that won't quit! Check out those tight buns in those leggings! I am jealous of her and I am ten years younger!

Shell said:

Ever notice the truly tasteless and tacky people hid behind the name Anonymous?

sam said:

i am surprised by the paci thing. Jen Garner is such an alpha-mom that rarely misses a trick and yet... her kids use the dummy for a very long time. i'm just surprised that jen "raw vegies for snacks" garner uses them.

Shell said:

seraphina is a butt face.

Shell (real Shell) said:

Real Shell never said the above remark. Just another Anonymouse trying to cause trouble probably.

With all that carrying, she will need a Piggyback Rider to haul them around. Check it out: www.thepiggybackrider.com
