Nia wanted to find a special way to give her husband the big news. So, she left him a little "gift." Robert was hoping the gift was a Fitbit to count his daily steps. But when he opened the gift bag, he was the one doing the counting!

“I opened the bag and I saw a very, very long sonogram,” he said. “Then I saw three onesies in the bag … and they were numbered 1, 2, and 3.”

A handwritten note from Nia was inside, as well, which read:

“Please accept this gift from me and God.”

The news completely stunned Robert. In fact, he fell out right there!

“I passed out,” Robert, 31, said. “I blinked a couple of times and thought, ‘Whoa, this is real life.’”

But as the shock wore off, joy and excitement set in. Things got even more interesting at the gender reveal party, where the couple learned they were having three little girls! The Tolbert's incredible news quickly went viral, with everyone amazed to hear these parents with twins are expecting triplets. But for Nia and Robert, the nerves have worn off and they are getting everything ready for their soon-to-be doubled household.

“We are a really good team. We are able to tag team to get things done,” Nia said. “That is why we are not as apprehensive.”
