Jennifer Garner Visits New York, Ben Affleck's on Daddy Duty!

Ben Affleck takes his daughter Violet to day care on Wednesday morning (April 3) in Santa Monica, Calif.

The 40-year-old actor left his shirt’s bottom button undone and showed a hint of tummy while Vi, 7, was showing off her new pair of glasses.

The day before, Ben‘s wife Jennifer Garner wore two separate outfits while out and about in New York City.

In a recent interview with The Telegraph, Jen commented on Ben‘s Oscars acceptance speech, in which he called their marriage “work”.

“I know Ben, I knew he meant it as the hugest, warmest compliment in the world. I think he was saying, ‘Look, what we have is really real and I value it above all and I’m in it with you and I know you are in it with me.’ That’s the way I took it,” she said. “Poor guy. … It’s so horrible to put yourself out there – he didn’t have to worry about it from my point of view.”

FYI: Ben is wearing Tod’s Blue Leather Derby Sneakers.
