Kourtney Kardashian has always been an active mother.
Actually from the moment she took matters into her own hands 10 years ago and led her first-born son into the world – a scene that was later seen by 4.8 million viewers. Hey, the doctor asked if she wanted and she did!
Today this little boy, Mason Disick is celebrating his 10th birthday – no thanks for asking, but we don't know where the time has gone – and that means that Kourtney now has a decade of memories of mom's.
Mason was of course accompanied by sister Penelope and brother and son birthday twin reign in 2014, and his circle of cousins expanded to seven. But at birth, the Kardashian baby boom began, Kris Jenner's first grandchild and the first member of the next generation of Kard.
"You teach me so much every day and changed my universe when I met you." Kourtney paid tribute to her son on his fifth birthday in 2014. "You taught me what it was about Life goes and I am truly blessed and honored to be your mother. "
From his memorable birth to his 2nd birthday with cowboy motifs to the celebrations with Fortnite motifs last year, it was one of the greatest benefits for keen Kardashian fans to see Mason grow up. At the same time, over the past 10 years we have seen Kourtney become a mother of her own, break up a trail for her sisters and brother, juggle work and play and find out the whole thing with parents with their children. dad, Scott Disick .
It was a trip for everyone, happily interrupted by all sorts of fun, sweet, shattering and generally unforgettable moments.
For starters, of course, there was the extremely quiet preliminary to Mason's debut when, after her water broke, Kourtney paused to do her laundry, shower, shave her legs, and get something applying makeup before going to the hospital.

Later asked about the experience, Kourtney said the birth of her son was "surprisingly easy".
"I always thought your first one should be really hard, but it was easy," she said to Life & Style. "I have a fantastic doctor. He actually gave birth to me! The environment in the room was just so relaxing, and everyone I wanted was there – Scott, my mother, Kim and Khloe. No one under the age of 18 is admitted, so my little son. " The sisters Kendall and Kylie could not enter. In fact, because of the swine flu, you can only have two people in the room – so we sneaked in Kim and Khloe! "
It may have been an explosion from the past, but as many sisters as possible have been crowding into the delivery room as has been the case for this family. Kourtney was right about Khloe Kardashians Page when her younger sister welcomed the daughter True Thompson in April 2018.
When asked if she was already thinking about having another baby, Kourtney did not say so, but she believed that the 18-month age difference between her and the next youngest sister Kim Kardashian could be a model of.
In the meantime, she immersed herself in the mother of a child, cooked her own baby food, and managed to get rid of her microwave (she read about toxins and decided that she was more careful than apologizing). German: www.mjfriendship.de/de/index.php?op…=view&id=167, go for long walks with Mason instead of running back to the gym to get in shape ("Carrying him around is like £ 20 all day long "she said to parenting in 2011) and let him sleep in her bed (she became a proponent of parenting bonding and" co-sleeping just happened naturally, "she said to Redbook) and basically adjusted her schedule
"I don't want to judge, but I've also met women who think it's cool to be outside or away from their baby, and I don't understand," said Kourtney to P are nting. "When I'm out or not, I want to be with Mason. I have help at work. It is important to have someone I trust so that I know Mason is being looked after. But every time I am "don't work, he's with me. He's with me on a plane, too, even if the nanny is on the plane."
Regarding appointments with Scott: "We would be just as happy if a slice of pizza would be in bed with our son," she said.
Kourtney also nursed Mason for 14 months.
"I'm sure the whole family thinks I'm [she mimed “a little crazy”] for having them in bed for a long time and breastfeeding, but whatever," she told Redbook in 2014. Khloe made fun of Kourtney's hyper-vigilance, like her various concerns about plastic toys (she is a supporter of wooden blocks, etc.), but Kourtney shrugs.
At the same time, despite her incomparable dedication to her children – first to Mason and then to Penelope and Reign – there are certain things that could harm other mothers, but which she never freaked out about.
For example, when Kris was with her to set up Mason's kindergarten when he arrived: "I thought people used to have babies in caves, everything will be fine," Kourtney recalled your answer.
There may be no larger wardrobes than those in the homes of various Cardashian parents, but Kourtney also appreciates certain signs of wear and tear, and few things were more precious than Penelope wearing her brother's pajamas.
Kourtney considered, but ultimately considered whether she should be born with water at home when she was pregnant with baby # 1. 2, and Penelope was born in the hospital like her brother. However, her mother helped her save her when she was halfway to the world, just like Penelope's big brother.
"Kourtney likes to move out of her own children," Khloe later considered.
Mason insisted that his sister's name initially be "sister", but he eventually got the shoot of the new girl around town.
Penelope, however, is closest in age to cousin North West, who was born 11 months later, and Kourtney and Kim have worked on several birthday celebrations for their daughters, including an affair on the subject Moana in 2017, a glittering unicorn showered with human tricks in rainbows, looks like the mythical creatures of 2018 and this year's extravagance from Candyland-in-Calabasas.
Kourtney was legendarily staged in her own way once she chose a particular path, and that extends to her supernatural wellbeing in her own skin. Although some of her everyday fashion is rather modest, she never shy away from posting a full bikini photo of her mother or otherwise showcasing the character she claims to have worked very hard on.
This level of confidence showed up when she showed herself naked for Dujour when she was pregnant with Reign in 2014.
"Nudity is no shame for me. I am not ashamed of my body. I am at my best when I am pregnant," Kourtney told the magazine. "It is such an amazing feeling, the transformation that your body is going through. It is something that is so powerful and beautiful, and I just really accept it."
So, body positivity, check.
Another very assignable challenge came the following year, however, when Kourtney and Scott broke up after almost a decade, some of which bristled with exhausting drama and very similar-sounding arguments about Scott's behavior. But they had always managed to get through the bad times and had three children together.
From then on, after it turned out in the following months that they would remain broken, it was clear. It was about forming a unified front for Mason, Penelope and Reign and their emotions in a productive way manage. They continued on vacation together, Scott stayed nearby for extended Kardashian-Jenner vacations, stayed with Khloe and Kris – almost to a confusing extent for the casual observer. But ultimately it just meant that they got it going – and maybe only they knew exactly what "it" was.
When they smoothed out the kinks, one of the more memorable moments in between was Kourtney, who had to set the law on boundaries, since Scott had just appeared in the house he no longer lived in, and so on treated as if he still lived there.
"I feel like you just go to my bedroom and & # 39; Hey, can I see all of your sunglasses?! & # 39; …" Kourtney gave an example.
In this particular case, Scott pushed back and said he was looking for his sunglasses among all of her sunglasses … but it often happened when they found out their new normal.
] "I see," Scott finally gave in. "All things that are understandable in this living together with the parents."
This year, Kourtney had planned to take only the kids on a spring break trip to Finland, but in the end he invited Scott and his two-year-old girlfriend, Sofia Richie . "However, they don't make me feel like I'm being left out, which is nice," she told Khloe of her decision. "Otherwise I would not go or invite you to come [Sofia]."
Due to the unsolicited criticism (like all her siblings), Kourtney has proven to be an expert for herself, which is still pouring out of the instaverse in addition to the thousands of "aws" and "too cutes"! that all of their children's photos attract. Mainly her family photos and various captions are a mixture of funny things ("I love a good massage", she recently joked in a photo of Penelope and Reign rubbing their feet while on vacation in Costa Rica), nostalgia and warmth … you know, people love to judge.
For example, some (or more) have offered their two cents over Reign's long hair over the years.
"She really needs to cut his hair," tweeted an observer in October, to whom Kourtney replied, "She really doesn't need to worry about children who are not her own. He is a happy boy."
Kourtney does not clap back all the time (there would not be enough hours at school day for something else!), But if she does … she nailed it.
Mason's hair was pretty long back then (his style is now his own, and Kourtney was usually more of the type who let the kids wear what they want, and Penelope was just getting her first haircut in this year, in February, at the age of 6.
Meanwhile, Kourtney knows that this is part of the cost of living – and this is a life decision she has been thinking about a lot lately, in that there has been serious talk about whether she wants to continue or not part of Keeping Up With The Kardashians to be running its 17th season on E! concludes
"I just decided to spend more time as a mother and put more of my energy into it," she told Entertainment Tonight about withdrawing a bit from the show last month, "but I'm not saying Goodbye. " (At the time, she was shooting Season 18 with everyone else, as usual.)
Regardless of what she decides for the long term, she has everything she needs at home – at home, wherever Mason, Penelope and Reign are ,
