LOS ANGELES, July 6 (UPI) -- Comedienne Tig Notaro and her wife Stephanie Allynne welcome twin baby boys.

Notaro shared a picture on Facebook of the young ones laying next to each other in their cribs, with their cat Fluff looking at the babies curiously, US Weekly reported.

The 44-year-old married Allynne in her hometown of Pass Christian, Miss. in October 2015.

"Max and Finn Notaro arrived happy, healthy and really, really cute on June 26," Notaro wrote next to the photo. "Fluff has a ton of questions about how long they plan on staying. Thank you everybody for your endless love and support."

Notaro's friend Ellen DeGeneres congratulated the couple immediately upon learning their big news.

"Congrats to my friend @TigNotaro and her wife @StephAllynne who are the parents of twins!" the daytime television host tweeted. "Hello twins. Goodbye sleeping thru the night."

The great news of twin boys comes after Notaro endured a string of bad news within just a few months in 2012, being diagnosed with C diff, losing her mother and learning she had breast cancer.

But life got better. She met Allynne on the set of In a World in 2013, beat breast cancer, then performed topless at the New York Comedy Festival in 2014, post mastectomy.
