23 Things Assignment #2 - More Pics

Here are 2 more pics to add to my blog. I didn't think I had any pics on my PC, but I did have pics of my twin boys born February 2003.

This is Nicholas, born 8:30 a.m. and weighing 7lbs, 9oz.

Nicholas is the practical one, the neat one that likes everything in order. When he plays with something, it's black and white to him, and uses the toy for what it does.


It's hard to believe that they are now 4 years old (going on 5) and are in Junior Kindergarten this year.

This is Brandon, born at 8:31 a.m. and weighing 6lbs, 5oz.

Brandon is the dramatic one, such the little actor when he plays. He's the messy one (lets his brother do all the cleanup - when he can get away with it!!!). When he plays with something, he's the creative one, and tries to see what it can do if he plays with it another way than what it's meant for. They really are opposites in personality.

And yes, I was huge just before they were born.

23 Things Assignment #2

Not many people know about Burano, Italy. This was one of my favorite spots to visit on our trip to Italy in 2001. Burano, Italy is a small island just a boat ride from Venice. It is a quaint town known for its' beautiful brightly coloured homes, and canals running through it, just beautiful!!! When visiting Burano, it really feels like you're in a totally different world with its' laid back life of the people living there. Burano is also known for its' magnificent detailed lacemaking. The streets are lined with quaint shops selling lace and older women sitting outside shops doing what they do best - lacemaking. So if you ever visit Italy in the future, make sure you visit Burano.

23 Things Assignment #1

Wow!!! this is interesting and can't wait to continue with the future exercises. I found this first assignment easy to follow. I have researched and created a document about "What is Web 2.0?" In it, it includes some of the features of Web 2.0, and of course, blogs is one of them. It is interesting to now have the opportunity to put the document I created to practice, and have hands on training related to the topic.
