Jennifer Garner is in love with her teddy bear!

Sharing a snippet of her LA home tour for Architectural Digest via her Instagram page on Sunday, Sept. 8, the actress, 52, revealed that her cuddly bear was the “love of my life.”

“I think it’s the overalls 👩‍🌾🐻,” her caption added.

Garner also revealed that the bear was a gift from her father William John Garner.

“Welcome to my bedroom,” Garner said in the clip while holding onto the light brown bear. “This is TBear. My dad gave him to me when I was three from the Sears catalog.”

“My mom made him some overalls,” the 13 Going on 30 star added before speaking about her cozy room. “I knew I just wanted something that felt tight, compact.”

“It was not a space that I needed a ton of room devoted to,” she continued. “Do you like it Tbear? Yeah, TBear likes it.”

The footage revealed Garner’s bed decorated with dark blue cushions and a matching blanket. The room also featured floor-length curtains, covering windows that led to what appeared to be an outdoor porch.

Garner then shared a throwback picture of herself as a child carrying TBear and smiling into the camera.

Speaking on her home tour, the Alias alum revealed that she’s usually very private about her property but is very proud of what she’s built.

“I’m such a private person about my home and here I’ve just taken you through the entire house. And really, it’s for a couple of reasons,” she said of the property she’s lived in while raising children Violet, 18,  Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12, whom she shares with her ex-husband Ben Affleck.

“I’ve never built anything all by myself before and I’m so proud of it. I am filled with gratitude every time I walk into my house. That I get to live here, that I’m so lucky to have my kids here,” she continued.
