Julie Bowen is One of the "Super Moms" on TV

I call our very own Julie Bowen as a "Super Mom".  Know why?  The reason is that she is a hard working mother in real life and her job right now is also to be a mom on TV.  She plays Claire, the better-half of Phil in the funniest, craziest, mockumentary "Modern Family".  Working Mother has round up Hollywoods moms who play the role of moms too on TV.  Julie Bowen is one of them.  To see their full list of "Super Moms", click here.

Ty Burrell Becomes a Real Dad

Ty Burrell and wife Holly recently adopted a little girl.  Will Ty Burrell become Phil of Modern Family?  Maybe, an even better dad than Phil.  Cheers!  Congratulations to the Burrells for this milestone in their life.  Here is what Ty said to Kristin Dos Santos when asked about parenting:

"I apologize for half of it. But I will actually take a little bit of pride in how much Phil cares. He really is putting in the time, and he really cares about his kids even though he gets very few things right. I do love how much he tries, you know what I mean? If my wife and I ever have kids, I hope I can try as hard as Phil. Maybe not quite as hard as Phil, but I hope I can try."

And now, the money quote/epiphany: "I guess if Phil can raise kids, so can I!"

Less than two weeks later and whammo! He has adopted a baby. Coincidence?

Of course. And I'm only kidding. But (bad) jokes aside, it's clear Ty had babies on the brain when I talked to him two weeks ago at the Paley Festival's Modern Family event, and seems well prepared to be an even better dad than ultracool Phil Dunphy.

See what else Ty says about Phil and parenting in the video clip above.

As for the show's biggest diva, Ty says she, too, comes in a tiny package.

"Let's be honest," Ty deadpans. "Lily is not a team player. Nothing but finger sandwiches and Evian. Just a little bit of dialogue would be so nice [to make her do]. But no, she's like, let them do the work. Smoking her very long cigarettes."

One thing's certain: Ty's newly adopted little girl has one very funny dad. And he might want to keep her away from Lily.

Julie Bowen on Battles with Loose Flesh Syndrome

I found this at Celebrity Baby Blog.  Julie Bowen of "Modern Family" has recently appeared in an episode with her undies in "Fifteen Percent" and only with her trench coat in the last episode "My Funky Valentine".  She tells Celebrity Baby Blog that having given birth to 3 kids has left her with loose flesh.  I think that she still looks good and she maintains her figure well.

The producers of Modern Family are having their fair share of fun at star Julie Bowen’s expense, the actress joked to Celebrity Baby Blog exclusively.

In one recent scene, Julie appeared in her bra and underwear and in an upcoming episode there will even be an “incident in a public place with nudity,” she reported, musing:

    “I don’t know. I think they just think it’s funny that I had twins and — maybe they’re saying — ‘She fought to lose the weight, now we’re just going to get her naked as much [as possible].’ I have no idea.”

A modest Julie was then quick to downplay her dramatic postpartum slim-down. “There’s loose flesh in places most people shouldn’t have flesh,” she points out. “You know what? I’ve given birth. They’d better take care of me when I’m old, that’s all I can say.”

In the meantime, Julie is still very much taking care of Oliver McLanahan, 2 ½, and fraternal twins John and Gus, 9 months next week, the latter of whom are teething — and making mom earn her stripes along the way!

“[They're] biting me while breastfeeding,” Julie, 40, shared. “How’s that for fun?” Unfortunately, it’s a phenomenon she said she is all too familiar with. Julie added,

    “My older one did the same thing sometimes. It’s not a party but you get past it.”

Oliver, John and Gus are Julie’s children with husband Scott Phillips.
