Jennifer Garner & Ben Affleck are making room for more infant. The couple confirmed that they are expecting their third kid. 

They confirmed the news to The Associated Press, basically saying that they are "thrilled" to have another infant. The pair, who married in 2005, already have daughters, Violet, aged five, & Seraphina, aged two. 

"She's always wanted children," a source told UsMagazine.com of Garner. "This was her plan all along." 

In addition to a growing relative, Garner & Affleck still have busy film careers to juggle. Garner, who recently starred in the "Arthur" remake alongside Russell Brand, has a lot of films on her docket, including "The Odd Life of Timothy Green," which he promoted at Disney's D23 convention, & "Butter." Meanwhile, "The Town" director Affleck will next star in Terrence Malick's forthcoming untitled project & is attached to the thriller "Argo." 

As for fatherhood, in an interview back in 2008, Affleck shared that he hoped he is a nice dad. "I hope so. I think all of us like to see ourselves as nice dads, but there is also that fear, 'Oh, I don't require being like my father,' or, 'I hope my infant doesn't turn out like me.' You know, I have those feelings," he told the U.K.'s Mirror. "So the key is optimism."

Garner spoke to Usmagazine.com earlier this year about how he manages to balance work & relatives. "You must have a great nanny, & you require having a supportive husband," Garner said. "We figure it out day by day. It is always messy, & it is never as glamorous as people think it is, but they get through, & as long as the children are happy, it is all nice."
