Jennifer Garner has given birth to a boy! According to Us Weekly, Jennifer and Ben Affleck welcomed their first son in Santa Monica today. He joins big sisters Violet, 6, and Seraphina, 3.

The celebrity couple have been absent from most of the awards season festivities in preparation for their new arrival. Their new boy wouldn’t have been a surprise as Jennifer and Ben knew the gender of the baby back in January.

UPDATE: Ben confirmed that they've named the little one Samuel. He wrote on Facebook, "We are happy to announce on February 27, Jennifer gave birth to a healthy baby boy, Samuel Garner Affleck." Congrats to the couple on their growing family!
