Unsurprisingly, it's been an extremely busy two months in Kristin Cavallari and Jay Cutler's household. The couple has been adjusting to parenting two baby boys after they welcomed their youngest son, Jaxon, into the world in May. And although The Fabulist co-host only recently got to enjoy her first real "mommys' night out" two weeks ago, she's made sure to always create time for her fitness routine—in between potty-training and diaper duty, that is.

Having already established a successful post-pregnancy diet and workout plan the first time around, the star stuck to a similar method this time. When E! News caught up with the 27-year-old on Thursday she revealed that she's already lost 20 pounds and is pretty close to her goal weight. She also dished on her exact fitness routine and diet, plus how her little ones have been getting along. (Spoiler alert: There's a lot of brotherly love, awww!)

Tell us about your post-baby workout routine.
I started working out when Jax was three weeks old. I've been working out four to five times a week for 30 to 45 minutes at home, doing tons of leg work like squats, lunges and lifting weights. I want to start Pilates again to focus on my core. I'll probably get back into it in the next couple weeks.

Have you been focusing on any particular areas?
I've really been focusing on my legs and butt. My stomach needs the most work but that takes time more than anything and diet plays a huge role. 

Did you find it was easier to lose the baby weight the second time around?
I'm still a couple of pounds away from my pre-pregnancy weight, but it took a solid three months with Camden and I think it will be the same this time.

Have you changed your diet at all?
No, my diet is always the same. I don't eat any toxic chemicals and I try to eat organic as often as possible. We eat a ton of veggies, chicken, grass-fed beef, bison and fish. We also love sweet potatoes and brown rice pasta. I either make a smoothie, oatmeal or eggs for breakfast and a salad or turkey sandwich for lunch. I have a snack in the afternoon—usually nuts with dried cherries, chips with hummus, or an apple and almond butter. I also love avocados with olive oil and sea salt and I put coconut oil in or on everything.

What's Camden's latest milestone?
We just potty-trained Camden which we're really excited about! He's also starting to talk, which is hilarious and a ton of fun. Jax is getting close to holding his head up on his own. 

How are the two brothers getting along?
Cam is really cute with Jax. He gives him kisses and holds his hand. 

Who do you think Jax took after more in the looks department? You or Jay?
It's hard to tell right now, but he looks exactly like Camden when Cam was his age. 

You posted a "mommy's night out" picture on Instagram a few weeks ago. Have you and Jay had a date night yet?
Yes, We went to dinner for our one-year wedding anniversary on June 8th.

What is one item of clothing you were itching to get into post-pregnancy?
A romper! I couldn't wait to wear this Stone Cold Fox romper—anything with a waist! In the picture (top photo, right) I don't have any shoes on because I was running around outside with Camden.
