Daddy's little helper: Ben Affleck takes daughter Violet to pick up supplies for new puppy as he spends time with kids in Atlanta
Ben Affleck arrived in Atlanta a few days ago with a puppy for his kids and on Sunday he enlisted the help of oldest daughter Violet to get supplies for the new arrival.
The actor and director, who was wearing his wedding ring, is in Georgia to spend time with his three children while his estranged wife Jennifer Garner, 43, films Miracles From Heaven on location there.
Ben, 42, was photographed leaving a pet store carrying a puppy crate kit while Violet, who's nine, carried a yellow plastic bag filled with purchases.

Shopping trip: Ben Affleck, wearing his wedding ring, took oldest daughter Violet with him to buy supplies for the puppy he bought his children
The little girl was cute as a button in a stripy tank top and flounce skirt and a pair of dark blue sandals.
She seemed excited to be taken along by her dad to pick out new things for the family's new Golden Retriever puppy.
The Batman V Superman star wore shorts and a t-shirt with calf-length socks and trainers but appeared somewhat tense as he walked with his daughter back to their SUV.

It's clearly a stressful time for the Argo Oscar winner as he and Jen try to focus on putting on a united front for the sake of their three children: Violet, Seraphina, six, and Samuel, three.
The new puppy will presumably delight the youngsters and give them something to focus on as their parents work out the details of their divorce.
The couple announced their split just one day after their 10th wedding anniversary on 30 June.
On Saturday, the former couple were both seen wearing their wedding bands as they spent a family day at a school fair and treated the children to ice cream.
It was the first time in a month that the whole family has been seen in public together.
When the Alias star has finished filming her faith-based movie, she and the kids will return to Los Angeles where they will continue to live on the same property as Ben.
