Need some help with my blog...

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy! -
So I love the look of my blog but I need to have a few menu buttons on the top.

Such as:
About me
Giveaways
Blog hops
Praise Reports
Cute things my kids say or do
PR Friendly
Awesome Tips


What else do I need? How do I go about doing that?  I understand html code a teeny tiny bit... hmmm?

Go to your dashboard. Design. Page elements. Add a gadget. Pages.

from your dashboard click new post. then there are those tabs that say posting, comments, settings, etc. under that you should see new post (the section you are currently on), edit posts, and edit pages. click the edit pages. that is where you add a new page. hope that helps! cant wait to see what you do! :D

Thanks you all are helping a lot!!!

Posts do not generally go onto other pages like you've got on the navigation bar now. Pages are static--set up to remain the same all the time. They do not collect posts, no matter how you set them up. I guess it depends on if you want posts or pages.

You can set up categories that you can sort your posts into. I've seen this done on the sidebar, but you could do it at the top where your navigation bar is too.

I'm not really an expert on any of this!!! Just a HACK. ;-D There are a bunch of tutorials like the one I sent you on setting up categories and putting the on the navigation bar. For example:

Create categories:

Book Description
Discover how to lead your child to Christ.
It's the most important conversation you'll ever have with your child, but that doesn't make it easy. The gospel is simple enough for little ones, but has kept theologians debating for years. So when it comes to explaining the Good News to your son or daughter, where do you start?
In I Believe in Jesus, John MacArthur walks children though the gospel of Jesus in a way that is easy to understand, and equips parents, grandparents, teachers, and loved ones to share the familiar story of God's love.
By opening the door to conversations that lead to salvation, this picture books has the potential to change lives forever.
My Review: This was an easy book to read and it paints a very clear picture for kids and parents to easily discuss the elements on the page to make sure the child understands what decision they could be making.   That decision to follow Christ is a big one that will impact them forever so making sure you…

Toddler Rainbow Craft for St. Patricks Day

St. Patrick's day is March 17th so its approaching quickly.  I have a few ideas on art and food projects that i want to do with the kiddos.  Hopefully I will have enough time to complete them and share them with you.  
This was a super easy one for those little hands.  I cut the stripes of colored paper but if you are working with a preschooler or school aged child then they can practice cutting.  The two toddler boys here only had to glue the pieces on their piece of paper.  EASY, but they enjoyed it!  :) 
It sure has brightened my kitchen with them hanging on the fridge!  :)  
I also talked more about the Promise God gave us with the rainbow since I know that history a whole lot better then the history of the Irish Holiday!
