While gossip columns have spent the past few months guessing whether or not actress Jennifer Garner and husband Ben Affleck were expecting their second child, Garner finally confirmed today that she is, indeed, pregnant, reports US magazine.

When asked by a USA Today reporter at the 10th anniversary of Baby Einstein products in Los Angeles, Calif., whether she had any upcoming projects, the actress reportedly pointed to her baby bump and said, "This."

And while Garner refused to reveal the due date, she did tell Access Hollywood, "We're so excited, obviously."

Garner and Affleck are already parents to 2-year-old Violet. Speculation that Garner was expecting began after the couple purchased a new $16 million house in L.A.'s Brentwood area.

In 2007, Garner told the U.K. edition of Marie Claire magazine that she couldn't wait to give Violet a sibling. "We definitely wonder what it would be like to have another – hopefully, knock on wood, someday," she said.

Wonder what color this child will be named after.
