Kristin Cavallari: ‘My heart exploded’ when son Jax matched outfits with me

Kristin CavallariJaxon’s 9-year-old son wanted to be just like his mother.

“When Jax said he wanted to match, my heart exploded,” the 36-year-old founder of Uncommon James captioned a photo of her and her son in matching outfits via Instagram story on Saturday, June 24.

While Cavallari wore a sexy crop top with denim cutoffs, her son wore a similar outfit — but modified it to work for the little boy’s style. Jaxon wore a plain white T-shirt and jeans shorts and cowboy boots. The mother-son duo even sported similar accessories, including a black and white plaid shirt tied around the waist and dark sunglasses.

The laguna beach alum brought both Jaxon and eldest son Camden, 10, and daughter Saylor, 7, to a concert in Chicago. “Now the party really starts,” she wrote in a photo from Camden on Friday, June 23. “My favorite people made it to Chi.”

She also showed off Saylor’s cropped outfit. Cavallari’s daughter wore pink cowgirl boots with a beige skirt and white top.

The hills alum hides her kids’ faces in her social media posts. She and ex-husband Jay Cutler, with whom she shares her three children, have expressed that they wanted to give the trio some privacy while growing up. However, the Chicago native has already found herself battling her kids’ desire to join social media.

“I just want to respect their privacy until they’re old enough to make that decision,” Cavallari told exclusively to Us Weekly earlier this month. “I think I want to keep them off social media for a few more years. I mean, my oldest is almost 11, but I think that’s really young to be on social media.”

She added that both Camden and Jaxon are “obsessed with YouTube” and have begged for their own channels. “I still think they’re a bit young to be involved in that sort of thing, but the day will come, of course,” said the Really simple cookbook author told us. “Selfish, I’m excited for them to join all of these things because that means I can start posting them because of course I mean I want to share that whole part of my world with people.”

As her boys compete for their own social media accounts, Cavallari revealed that her “biggest parenting challenge” is raising Saylor. “She’s stubborn and she’s tough. She is definitely a reward for me,” said the Very Cavallari alum told us. “My mom says we’re identical.”

Cavallari shared her gentle parenting approach: “I think she’s so tough, but it’s the tough ones that usually need the most love. I just try to kill her with kindness and just try to love her as much as I can.
