We think we've got the names right...
... but we might need a bit of help with our fuseki.

Very cute!
I'm assuming that Sente was born first and Gote second ...

I can see a case for Child Safety here... The children cry, Sente is answered and Gote is not.

My daughter is nine months, and what I've found is that DGS is my friend. After the second time I had to leave a KGS game because of her, I decided that it wasn't worth trying to play except when I really could guarantee that I would not need to tend to her in the next 75 minutes. That happens rarely, usually after she and my wife are both asleep.
They're both really cute, but I love Gote's expression in the fuskei pic.

I know the feeling well. The idea of doing anything I want to do before my kids are asleep is a distant memory.

At your level studying Fuseki isn't the most efficient way to improve. I suggest you work through this beginners book of Life and Death problems.

At least she doesn't say '' Beards are for bears
