Hello All,
I'd like to introduce you to two new players:
Django Aldous Wright
Gabriel Luis Wright
... who were born at 2am (UTC) on Wednesday 9th June. I have two sons!
(Before you ask, their mother rejected "Sente" and "Gote" for the names.
)

Congratulations, need to show the pics to my girlfriend, she'll freak out because both of them are so cute :3 Django sounds kinda funny, have the second names a special meaning (grandparents?) ?

Congrats!
That which can be destroyed by the truth should be.

I assume Django was named after the great jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt. Or was he named after the high level Python web application framework? I'm guessing it's the musician because Gabriel is known to be a horn player
Congratulations!

Congrats Tealeaf, that's fantastic news! I'm sure you'll be teaching them the twin skills of placing stones and doing cartwheels very soon. Also props to Mrs. Tealeaf.

Thanks!
The names are all references to things that have meant a lot to Emily and me over the years.
Django (Reinhardt)
Aldous (Huxley)
Gabriel (Garcia Marquez)
(Jorge) Luis (Borges)
... and yes, cartwheels and joseki will both definitely be in their futures.

Congrats!! ( But I still think that you should have named them Sente and Gote
)
You didn't mention any complications, so I trust that the mom came through ok.

Firstly, Congratulations. Secondly, May I ask, are they identical or fraternal twins?
