(Parenting.com) -- Just as her son, Mason, is walking and gabbing like a champ -- the star of TV's "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" reveals the first rookie mistake that caused her to freak out and the new-mom moment that truly embarrassed her (thanks, sister Kim!)





'I make my own baby food'





My mom bought me this amazing baby-food maker, the Beaba. (Says mom Kris Jenner: "Who knew she would be that excited about a baby-food maker? I bought her a million handbags, and I never got that reaction.") I steam and puree fruits and vegetables, and they last for like four days.





Mason pretty much loves everything. I gave him red beets, and it got all over his face, which made the funniest picture. He also loves sweet potatoes, carrots, and yams. Sometimes I mix pureed peaches, pears, bananas, or apples with plain yogurt or an all-natural organic jelly. I have this great book called "Super Baby Food" that's full of ideas. I should be on this Mason diet!

'I have no desire to go out'





Unless I'm working, I can't be away from him without feeling guilty. It doesn't feel good or natural to be, so it's a struggle. My friends keep saying, "You and [boyfriend Scott Disick] should go out and eat or do something."





Recently my sister Kim watched Mason so we could go to dinner. It took so long -- actually, it probably didn't take so long, but to us it felt like it took long -- we were like, should we just get pizza and go home? Scott says he doesn't need to wine and dine me anymore. We would be just as happy having a slice of pizza sitting in bed with our son.





'Mason sleeps in bed with me'





If I've had a long day, then I have that time at night, which is really important to me. Mason did fall on the floor once by mistake. It was the worst moment. I freaked out and looked online [to research the dangers associated with a baby falling off the bed]. He was fine but crying, so I e-mailed the doctor at four in the morning. He wrote me right back, yet I stayed up all night to watch him sleep to make sure he was okay.





I've since lowered our mattress to the floor. I put pillows all around the floor, too. I am doing the best that I can, and I feel really confident in that. Unless someone has walked in your shoes, you really can't judge. Everyone needs to make the best choice for their life. He's such a happy baby, and I really think sleeping together has something to do with that.

'I'm still nursing!'





I have to eat every couple of hours since I'm nursing. If I don't, my body freaks out. I went a little crazy for a week exercising to prepare for a photo shoot, and after that I was like, this isn't worth it. I was exhausted and dehydrated. I need to have energy for my son, and I haven't worked out since. I take Mason on a lot of walks. Carrying him around is like carrying 20 pounds all day.





'If I'm not working, neither is the nanny'





I don't want to judge, but I've also met women who think it's cool to be out or away from their baby, and I don't get that, either. When I am out or away, that's when I most want to be with Mason. I do have help when I'm working. It's important to have one person I trust, so I know Mason is taken care of.





But every time I am not working, he is with me. Even
