Jennifer Garner took smiley, pigtailed daughter Violet Anne, 2 ½, to the Huntington Art Gallery and Botanical Gardens in San Marino, Calif. on Monday, where they explored the grounds and learned about various flowers. Jennifer, 36, and husband Ben Affleck expect their second child this winter.

Jennifer is wearing Juicy Couture’s Empire-Waist Dress ($228).
Violet wears New Balance Kids KV 992 ($49).
They are seriously the cutest mother/daughter duo ever! I love how Jennifer takes Violet to all kinds of interesting places and really seems to try to teach her about different things. Violet ALWAYS looks so happy. You can tell they have a great relationship that will only get better over time.
I think they are my favorite little celebrity family because they seem so normal.

My favorite family! I love their relationship. It seems so close and personal. I love it. They are so down-to-earth and normal. And Violet is the happiest little girl I have ever seen!!!

That child is permanently smiling! So gorgeous!

Jen really likes Juicy Couture huh! Me too!
This pair is one of my 2 favorite pairs of mommy & baby(Gwen & Kingston as well,just waiting on their newest bundle) I love how you can see what amazing mommies they are. It is like you can feel their love.
Everyone gets frustrated with their kids but with these 2 moms, it just makes you feel that there is no wrong in their lives besides the papps following them everywhere to feed our obsessions. Haha and yes I am celeb baby obsessed and I am glad that Danielle is as well or we wouldn’t have this awesome website.

Violet looks so tall for her age. My daughter is a few months older then her and looks half her size. I don’t know how Jen can hold her all the time like that. I am also 4 months pregnant and carrying around my 30 lb daughter is nearly impossible, especially outside in the heat!

jen seems like a great mom, and violet is such a cute happy child. I love juicy dresses too. Can’t wait to see the next baby. On another note jen’s little toe creeps me out, it’s n top of another toe lol.
- brooke on
WONKY TOE! wonky toe! lol they both are cute though
- Grace A on
haha I can’t believe I just noticed how tall she is I guess it’s because I never saw her with another kid her age but Yeah she is very tall.
she looks so much like ben but her smile is all Jen
- sharon on
Jen sure is loving Juicy lately…and who can blame her? Very cute mother/daughter duo!

Violet looks so tall!
- Molly on
I’m sure all that strength and weight training that Jen did for her action roles helps with her ability to carry Violet, cause she does seem tall for her age. She must be heavy. Pregnant or not, I don’t think I could carry Vi the way Jen does. lol
I suppose for safety issues, I might be able to do it. Anyway, I love the relationship they share. Can’t wait to see how the new baby will fit into the mix of things.

I love how much quality time Jen and Vi spend together during fun and interesing things. They are so adorable.
To Brooke, about Jen’s little toe how is sits atop another one is not that unusual, it seems a lot of people have the same or similar condition. I understand it can be caused by any number of things. Jen took ballet dancing for 9 years and that could be a result of even kick boxing. My nephew who is into martial arts had his feet injured as well. Who knows? It does not seem to pose a problem. Sorry, it creeps you out. It might be advantages when wearing pinch toe shoes or cut-out sandals.
- Rosy J on
I think they are so cute together, I want Vi to be my daughter in law hahaha, I just read the comments on this photo in http://www.x17online.com, and I would never go to that site again, they are all so mean! Why people always want perfection, they were saying that Violet isn’t a cute kid, because of her teeth, I like CBB because here we are all polite and specially we now all kids are gorgeous no matter their shape or color.
- angie on
Violet is so cute! She is the happiest kid in Hollywood, always smiling! God Bless her!

$228.00 for a sundress! Try Wal-Mart. Zellers and pocket the difference. Ridiculous to spend that much.
- Anne on
I just love the way that Jen is always taking Violet somewhere and just spends so much time with her. These 2 are gorgeous and looking great as always!

So what if she spends 228$ on a dress? I remember once reading that following “Juno’s” success she earned 7 mill.$ on that movie alone.
Wouldn’t it be completely stupid if you have that amount of money and then wouldn’t treat yourself once in awhile?
The only problem i have with the dress is the color. Would have suited her much better in green.
- lilith on
yes, you have to remember that when someone gets 7 million for a movie…$228 dollars probably is equal to $8 dollars for us…
