Life & Style exclusive: Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck: It's a boy!

jen-garner_spl318790_001.jpgBreak out the blue! Jennifer Garner is expecting a baby boy with hubby Ben Affleck, a friend of the actress exclusively tells Life & Style.

While Ben, 39, adores daughters Violet, 5, and Seraphina, 2, he's thrilled at the prospect of a "little sports buddy," the pal tells Life & Style. "He can't wait to take his son to baseball games and play catch with him."

But Jen has a few reservations. "She feels like she won't know what to do," says the pal. "She's close to her two sisters, and her instincts were spot-on with the girls. But she never had a brother and doesn't know the drill." Still, the 39-year-old hopes things come to her "naturally."
