Modern Family star Julie Bowen: “I’m just like every other mom trying to do the best I can.”

Modern Family star Julie Bowen opens up to Celebrity Baby Scoop about her three “rowdy” sons (Oliver, 6, and 4-year-old twins John and Gus), the joys of motherhood and her new book The Adventures of Ana and Phyl: The Carnival. Julie dished on what her house is like with her sons, “I have three boys, so my house is … rowdy! They are close in age, so they really do like playing with one another, and so far, get along very well. I hope that continues. We just came out of a busy summer with lots of camps and activities so we’re settling in to new routines and a new school year.” Wondering how Julie balances her busy acting career and home life? Julie shares, “It’s a constant juggling act and I’m just like every other mom trying to do the best I can. I have noticed that now that the boys are a little older they notice more when I am gone, so I try to be around as much as possible. But it’s good for them to see I have a job that I love, too. And I’m lucky that my work schedule is very manageable.”   

What’s up next for Bowen? “I’m really enjoying my work on Modern Family and the stage it’s given me to bring new information to other moms. This includes my work to raise awareness of anaphylaxis with the Get Schooled in Anaphylaxis campaign as well as my work with Neutrogena next year. As a mom to a child with life-threatening allergies, I know it’s important to keep this conversation going both at home and at school, which is why we developed this new e-book, titled, The Adventures of Ana and Phyl Axis: The Carnival. So, more of that and just spending as much time with my family as I can!”
