What Julia Roberts has to Say about Motherhood
Julia Roberts recently gave birth to twins: Hazel and Phinnaeus. At 37, America's Pretty Woman couldn't be happier in her new role of motherhood. The twins were delivered at a hospital in Southern California. Since the twin's birth Julia has done voice-over work for the remake of E.B. White's "Charlotte's Web". She is also set to work on a film for children called "Ant Bully". Roberts has often told reporters that she'd like nine children. She claimed that pregnancy was a breeze and she certainly hasn't lost her trademark smile. Julia seems to enjoy all of life's experiences. Motherhood simply brought highlights. Roberts says she only has one complaint: huge breasts. Julia told a reporter for the 'The Oprah Winfrey Show': "It's no laughing matter. This is the only dress brave enough to hold in my breast line." However, Julia has kept a striking figure, which she gives the credit to Pilates. What is motherhood?

It is certainly a role that Julia Roberts plans on holding 365 days a year. Alli Ross is the webmaster at the Baby Names Box - where you can explore over 6,000 baby names and their meanings.
