Eric Decker on Being a Dad to Two Kids: ‘It Definitely Makes It Feel Like the House Is Complete’

07/15/2016 at 03:30 PM ET

Eric Decker has definitely scored the mother (er, father?) of all touchdowns when it comes to his family.

The New York Jets player is dad to daughter Vivianne Rose, 2, and 10-month-old son Eric Thomas II with his country singer-songwriter wife Jessie James Decker. And though he’s certainly got his work cut out for him at times juggling a football career and parenting duties, life at home is a lot more fun with two kids.

“It’s great because they’re starting to play together,” Decker, 29, told PEOPLE Wednesday at the Superdry store opening in N.Y.C. “Eric is getting to an age where he can move around and hold his own with Vivi, so that’s been a fun transition to see from him being a baby to more of a toddler and on the ground playing.”

He adds that his older child has been a great big sister as she’s learning how to share with her baby brother.

“It definitely makes it feel like the house is complete when you have two little ones running around and playing,” Decker continues.

Jessie James Decker is loving spending time with her “chill” baby boy Eric Thomas II, but with two under 2 now, there also comes a bit of chaos.

“It’s really great, the dynamic between all four of us, having one more addition,” says the singer, 27, whose Christmas EP, “This Christmas,” debuts Dec. 4. “Now that there are two babies in the house, it’s a lot more action!”

That action includes Daddy, New York Jets wide receiver Eric Deckerbonding over football games and making room for “tummy time” with baby Eric, 9 weeks, while mom keeps 19-month-old daughter Vivianne Rose in on the fun — all while functioning on very little sleep.

“Every now and then Vivi may try to get a little bit of attention when I’m breastfeeding him, but other than that. she’s been a really big help,” says James Decker. “She’ll help throw the diapers away or she’ll help bring us a diaper. She’s trying to play that big sister role.”

“Obviously [newborn son Eric Thomas Decker ll is] only a week old but [17-month-old daughter] Vivianne, our oldest, is just very nurturing and very sweet with her brother.”
