Obama roaster Wanda Sykes is one proud mutha ... of twins!

Wanda-sykes- The outspoken comedian -- who got alternately hailed and lambasted for her roast of President Barack Obama at the White House Correspondents Dinner last week -- and her wife, Alex, welcomed twins on April 27.

"All are happy and healthy and at home," Sykes' rep told Us Magazine.

Alex gave birth to the couple's first children, daughter Olivia Lou and son Lucas Claude.

Olivia weighed 6 pounds, 7 ounces, and was 19 inches long. Lucas clocked in at 7 pounds, 9 ounces, and was a whole inch longer than his sister.


"The New Adventures of Old Christine" star met her life partner in 2006, and they were married Oct. 25, 2008, in California.

Sykes did not publicly come out as a lesbian until she attended a same-sex marriage rally in Las Vegas after the passage of Proposition 8.

Congrats, girls!
