Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner, during their 13-year long marriage, became the proud parents of three children who've grown up in the spotlight as much as they have.
The couple share 19-year-old Violet, 16-year-old Fin and 13-year-old Samuel, and while their parents keep them away from the world's prying eyes, they can't help but share small nods to their private lives.
Such was the case in a new video shared by Jennifer, 52, on Instagram, with a subtle sign of how much her kids have grown, take a look below…
While the actress twirls around her pet cat Moose, visible in the background, near the library nook, is the home's height chart, with distinct markings for all three kids visible.
It also looks like several of them are starting to reach the magic 6-foot mark, most notably Violet, who already towers over her 5'8" mom and is closer to her dad's strapping 6'2" figure.
Fans were thrilled to see another candid and hilarious glimpse of life at Casa Garner, sharing comments like: "The behind the scenes look is so real," and: "Extra fluffy and patient," plus: "I love that you have a cat named Moose… makes sense that he doesn't care."

"I wanted it to feel old and cool and historic, but I also wanted to make it work for a big family with a lot of things going on," she told Architectural Digest about how she envisioned her home following her divorce from Ben, which was finalized in 2018.

"I looked and looked for a house to move into, but I needed privacy, and any house that had privacy was more grand than I felt comfortable in," she continued, which eventually led to her deciding on building her own home rather than buying one. "I was frustrated, but finally said, 'Okay, I think I'm going to have to build and found this lot.'"

In 2010, Stephen Burky was accused of stalking Jennifer Garner and her then-husband Ben Affleck. He was found not guilty by reason of insanity, sent to a mental institution, and ordered to stay away from the couple for ten years.
3. 13 Going on 30
In the 2004 film, Jennifer was also meant to play the younger version of herself before Christa Brittany Allen was cast as young Jenna.
4. Married twice
Before marrying her famous ex-husband, Ben Affleck, Jennifer was married to her Felicity co-star Scott Foley from 2000 to 2004.

"Very early, I remember my mom saying, if you pick something right off a vine, you're so much more likely to like it," Jennifer recalled of life growing up in West Virginia. "It's like you can taste the sunshine."
