Jennifer Garner is the portrait of summertime, posing in her warm weather clothes poolside for Self magazine. We've been missing our cute Garner-Affleck family fix, but it's great to see Jen looking so fresh-faced and happy. The article shares more of her sunshine, as she talks about spending the season with Violet at her beloved farmers markets. Here are highlights:
- On her favorite season: "What's not to love about summer? I love all the fruit that's available. I love the farmers' market. I love that everybody relaxes a little more. You can feel it in their face and demeanor. People leave work a little earlier."
- On if the warm weather motivates her to work out: "Of course! You're in a bikini! In the winter, you feel like, Who cares? I'm in my husband's sweater. It doesn't matter. But in May, everybody kicks it into gear."
- On whether motherhood has affected her vacation style: "Totally. It's all about experiencing fun. A lot of it is having fun through this other person. I just gave Violet's babysitter a week off because I wanted to stay home and be with her and not be available to anyone else, and it was great. She and I loved it. We got to cook and make banana bread together."
Sounds like Jen is ready to jump past Spring and head right into the Summer months. She looks amazing and hearing her talk about getting back into shape is great inspiration to get beach-body ready again.

I know I'm probably like six months late, but I just rented and watched Juno and she was absolutely INCREDIBLE in it! go jennifer! She is such a mommy! I love it!
1love the pics
i miss seeing jen on here
2LOVE her. She's so cute and grounded.
3I have this issue and just read the article. She's very bitter about the paps taking pics of Violet ... it crept into the summer-focused interview with no apparent prompting, though who knows if something was said to draw it out of her. Can't say I blame her, and now I feel guilty for looking forward to photos of the adorable child!
4Jennifer Garner, is a cutie. She was in boston a while ago. most of hollywood should be like her....

I like Jennifer Garner since ALIAS!!!
6I never used to be a fan of hers, and I'm not really sure why, but I'm liking her more and more. Oh, and I'd be annoyed with the paps too if they kept taking pictures of my kid!
7I like her, she stayed very simple.
8Wow, I never would have thought her to have a babysitter around. I always see her with Violet!
9bought time you brought back some Jennifer lovin!!!
10she looks adorable, hoW refreshing to see a grounded celeb, i bet vi is wondering where are all the meanies with the cameras, since we have not seen her in awhile maybe her and chucky cruise are plotting to destroy us humans
11I would think working for her would be a lot fun. At least you get a week off when you aren't expecting it. She sounds very grounded.
