Jessie James Decker Recalls How Her Kids Prepared for Their New Sibling
In an interview with People magazine, Jessie opened up about her kids’ involvement in preparing the nursery for their new sibling.
The musician expressed gratitude for their enthusiasm, noting, “They’ve been such a big help. What I love about this is they’re really aware of what’s going on. Before, whenever Forrest was born, they were still babies themselves, and so they knew what was going on, but not to this level.”
She added: “I mean, Vivi will be 10 years old when this baby’s here, and if we all remember being 10, you know what’s going on. And she is completely aware and so excited, and they’ve all been helping me in the nursery finalize things.”
She also shared sweet anecdotes about her sons, with Forrest writing love letters to the baby and Eric stepping up as her “protector.”
“He tries to hold my hand when we’re going up and down stairs or puts his hand on my back and gets worried, or he will not let me carry anything heavy because he’s just paranoid,” she recalled. “He’s like, ‘I got it, Mom. I’ll carry this.’ ”
Jessie James Decker Shares Her Husband’s Reaction To Her Fourth Pregnancy
Jessie first announced her pregnancy in August 2023, taking to Instagram to share the news with her fans with a heartwarming video featuring her growing baby bump set to Mariah Carey’s “Always Be My Baby.”
Days later, during an Instagram Story Q&A, the “Boys in the Summer” singer revealed that the news initially took her husband by surprise.
“[Eric] didn’t believe me, actually. He thought I was playing a joke on him … but I would never joke about something like this. He literally thought [my then-pregnant] Sydney peed on a stick, and we were, like, messing with him,” she said.
After reassuring him of the reality of the situation, Jesse shared that Eric quickly embraced the news with excitement.
“I was like, ‘I’m not joking. This is real,’” she recounted. “It was a shock for a while there, but then as soon as he knew it was real, I mean, you know him. … We love kids, so we’re like, ‘Yeah!’”
Later in November, Jessie confirmed on Today that she’s expecting “another boy,” when host Jenna Bush Hager asked about an Instagram post that many fans thought was a hint.
