As I have gotten older, I've discovered the joys of being lazy.
Julie Bowen

I think it's pretty common for people to get excited when they meet somebody that they know from the media.
Julie Bowen

I'm in total celebrity denial in general, but there's awareness that probably if somebody has met you, they might go and tell somebody. I just would rather have the word on the street stay at a neutral, not like, She shows up in a ball gown, but She seemed nice. That's fine.

My husband is very funny and his humor has gotten us through a lot. He's good at defusing me.

I guess I'm not that aware of such a big fan base. I have a few core people who write me no matter what I'm doing, but I hardly have sacks of mail being dropped on my door!

How many times can you say, No yanking on one another's genitals? Everything is hilarious until someone starts crying.
Julie Bowen
Image
We can't have iPads until after 7 p.m. Otherwise the entire day is, iPad time? What about now? It makes me crazy. And no TV on weekend mornings.
Julie Bowen
Image
Kids don't seem to recognize when they're hungry until they're starving and in the emergency zone, so I'm like, Who wants some apple slices and cheese?
Julie Bowen
Image
I'm built like a 14-year-old boy. I have no waist, so anything I wear has to have a lot of trickeration going on. I don't fit into girl dresses. I can't just slip it on.

Image
I would love to do more movies, but the reality is women have many more opportunities on television to play a greater variety of characters.
Julie Bowen
Image
I use an app called ChoreMonster. The kids earn points for brushing teeth or picking up the dog poop. It's genius.
Julie Bowen
Image
I would like to say that I am a very relaxed, loving person who is not competitive, but that's a lie!
Julie Bowen
Image
I read some article where Reese Witherspoon said, If you're not yelling at your kids, you're not spending enough time with them. It made me feel so much better.

Success is getting up one more time than you fall down.

I frequently do drive carpool in the clothes I slept in, because it's impossible to get three children out the door with lunches packed and all that stuff and have a do.
