ABINGTON, Pennsylvania - It's a boy! And another two boys! And three girls as well!

A suburban Philadelphia family is welcoming six new additions.

A statement from Abington Memorial Hospital says sextuplets were born there on Wednesday.

The hospital says the three boys and three girls are premature. They're being cared for in the neonatal intensive care unit.

Pennsylvania already has one famous set of six. The reality TV show "Jon & Kate Plus 8" and the spinoff "Kate Plus 8" are about Jon and Kate Gosselin's twins and sextuplets, who live in Wernersville.
