As she began to unwrap the gift, Jen said, “I’m already crying. I think it’s that time of the month, where, like, just everything makes me cry.”<\/p>\n After a majority of the wrapping paper was removed from Zac’s gift, Jen realized it was the gold dress she wore during DWTS’ TikTok Night<\/a>. (The reality star came in ninth place on the competition series, where she was partnered with professional dancer Jan Ravnik<\/a>.)<\/p>\n Wiping away tears, Jen told Zac, “How did you know? This one was my favorite,” which prompted her husband to respond, “I wanted it to represent your postpartum journey.” The pair is parents to three children<\/a>: Penny, 5 months, Luca, 2, and Nora, 4.<\/p>\n Never miss a story \u2014 sign up for PEOPLE’s free daily newsletter<\/a> to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer\u200b\u200b, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories.<\/p>\n Sharing a warm embrace, Jen then continued to admire her thoughtful gift, joking that it was “better” than the Mirrorball Trophy<\/a> given to DWTS winners.<\/p>\n She also teased her spouse, asking Zac, “How are you gonna come up with a better [gift] than that?” (His response? “You better keep doing cool things.”)<\/p>\n Jen has been soaking up family time since her elimination from DWTS earlier this fall.
