Though we know her as an actress she has one role that's just a wee bit more important, mum to her twins Hazel Patricia and Phinnaeus Walter.
While Julia may never age, her kids do as she shared a throwback photo of the adorable duo to mark their 19th birthday.
In the heartwarming black and white photo, the Notting Hill star can be seen sitting cross-legged with a baby perched on each knee.
"19. There are no words for the joy, the fun, the wild rumpus of life together," she captioned the shot.
The actress shares her twins with her second husband, cinematographer Danny Moder.
Though we may imagine her to be an almost perfect mum, Julia has admitted that she doesn't always get everything right on the parenting front.
"Sometimes I get gripped with fear of blowing it, and sometimes I’ve just said to my kids, like: 'So today me as a mom, can we just – can we just take that off the boards? Because I blew it,'" she told Today.
The beloved actress also explained that she had kids when she was ready and didn't give in to pressure from anyone around her.
Nowadays, Julia says she picks and chooses what acting gigs she takes as being there for her family is her main priority.
"It wasn’t by design. So much as not finding something that I was interested in. I was surprised at how quickly the years seemed to go by," she said.
"It was also the math equation of my husband’s work schedule and the kids’ school schedule and summer vacation. It’s not just: "Oh, I think I want to do this,'" she told New York Magazine.
