Blooming: Jennifer Garner showed off her growing baby bump as she collected her daughter Violet from karate class today


She and husband Ben Affleck announced they were expecting their third child just over a couple of months ago.

And it seems Jennifer Garner's baby bump is blossoming fast.

The 39-year-old actress showed off her growing tummy in a white T-shirt and bright red cardigan as she picked up her daughter Violet from karate class this afternoon in Los Angeles.


A short denim skirt and flat black ballet pumps completed the look.

The hands on mother smiled broadly as she walked with her five-year-old who skipped alongside her happily.

At one point, the little girl even kept her mother amused by demonstrating a few martial arts moves.

However, there was no sign of the actress's other daughter, two-year-old Seraphina today.

Earlier Garner had stepped out for a coffee at the Brentwood Country Mart in California, where she strolled along chatting on her phone.

The star, who is thought to be around five or six months pregnant, recently told Ellen DeGeneres that she wouldn't mind having a third daughter as she grew up in a household of three girls.

'It would be so weird to have a boy,' she said, before adding that it would also be 'cool' and 'different.'

The lone man of the household, husband of six years Ben, is also currently hard at work filming Argo in Los Angeles.

Meanwhile, Olivia Wilde, co-star in the actress's forthcoming film Butter, said Garner should 'keep breeding.'

'She makes pretty babies,' Wilde raved to Us Weekly this week, before adding, 'She was such an awesome co-star and a wonderful producer.'

Both actresses appear in the upcoming film about a young orphan who discovers an odd talent for creating butter sculptures in the Iowa town where her adoptive family lives.

She's pitted against Garner, who plays the ambitious wife of reigning champion Bob Pickler (Modern Family star Ty Burrell) in the annual butter sculpture competition.

Ashley Greene, Alicia Silverstone and Hugh Jackman also appear in the ensemble comedy, which hits American theatres October 21.
