Scott Disick and Kourtney Kardashian reunited for lunch with kids

Splits can be ugly but they need not be, especially when there are kids involved. And Scott Disick and Kourtney Kardashian prove this by having lunch together with their kids.

For the first time after news of their split broke, reality stars Disick and Kardashian were spotted together in public last Thursday. The two were having lunch at the Beverly Hills Hotel with their son, Mason (5) and daughter, Penelope (3). Scott and Mason were already spotted the day before, spending some father-and-son bonding at Barnes & Noble and Rosti Tuscan Kitchen.

Disick and Kardashian reportedly arrived separately — him in a Mercedes sports car and her in a Range Rover. After the lunch, Kardashian dropped off Mason and Penelope for a visit at their father's home.

A source told PEOPLE of the meeting between the two, "Scott and Kourtney chatted and seemed okay. Kourtney seems to be making an effort so Scott can spend a lot of time with the kids."

Another source says Disick is starting to realize how his split will affect the kids and wants to do the best he can to make things easier for them. PEOPLE quotes, "He's coming back down to earth and trying to figure out his next step. He wants to do the responsible thing. Now that things have settled down, he's acting like an adult again. He's got a long way to go, but he's taking some steps that are encouraging."

Disick and Kardashian split earlier this month, during the July 4 weekend. Disick was in Miami when Kardashian decided to end the relationship and spent some time in New York before heading back to California. Kardashian, on the other hand, has been spending all her time with the kids and her family and friends. She was recently spotted at the 2015 ESPY Awards to show her support for Caitlyn Jenner.
