“Welcome to this world Forrest Bradley Decker! My heart is full! #wolfpack completed with a 9lb lean, eating machine (& a Decker bucket head)! Mommy sure knows how to grow some babies,” he wrote.
The couple’s been open about their plans to only have three children.
“We’ve always had the conversation that it’s either two or it’s three,”James Decker told Entertainment Tonight. “Eric came from a family where it was just him and his sister, and he said he always wished he’d had one more sibling. I was like ‘I don’t want the kids to feel that way so let’s just have one more baby.'”
But, now that little Forrest has arrived, the singer’s family is complete.
“We feel like this will really complete the family, and then he’ll get fixed,” she said, referring to her husband.
Her husband wasn’t alone in wanting another baby, either. Their daughter was keen on having a baby brother or sister, too. The singer told her daughter to “pray to Jesus” if she wanted a sibling, James Decker told People in an interview:
In the pregnancy announcement, the mom and dad showed Vivianne that her prayers had been answered:
