Wow, wow, wow!

Hot off the plane back to Toronto, and admittedly exhausted, I'm getting tweets and emails about this HUGE news (and I love that some of you sent me this big tip while I was away, thank you!). I mean, it's not like we haven't been waiting for this moment — what, with a Jennifer Garner bump watch almost every day. So, HOORAY!

And it's a BOY! She really did throw us all off the scent that day on The Tonight Show.... IT'S. A. BOY!

Isn't it great? I mean, can you picture it? Jennifer Garner, 39, Violet, 6, Seraphina, 3, Ben Affleck, 39, and a little BOY out and about? Love love love!

We have absolutely no deets on the name; but, given "Violet" and "Seraphina," it's sure to be FASCINATING. Any guesses, Gorgeouses?

Let's see.... They like colourful and angelic names. "Blue" has already been taken.... How about Raphael or Gabriel for angelic boys' names. Or maybe they'll go Grecian? Troy? Socrates? Plato? Gorgeouses, I think it's going to be a CRAZY name.... I'll keep you posted!

Congrats to the family!

Love!
