Ready to get another busy day underway, the lovely Miranda Kerr was in mommy mode as she stepped out of her New York City apartment on Wednesday (July 18).

The 29-year-old Aussie supermodel toted her handsome young son Flynn Bloom in her arms as the pair readied to take on the traffic in the always-bustling Big Apple.

The mother/son bonding comes just as Miss Kerr spoke with Women’s Fitness about her own childhood memories.

Having fond thoughts of her past in the Land Down Under, Miranda reminisced, “I love being in nature – growing up in Australia, the beach has always been a big part of my life and I feel very at home and happy there.”

Now that she’s a grown woman, the Victoria’s Secret beauty finds joy in other things such as entertaining and whipping up tasty meals for her loved ones.

Of this, she explained, “I love to have people over to the house and cook for them and have dinner parties. I cook anything – fish, a roast – it really depends on who’s coming and what they feel like and what my husband feels like eating.”
