New Blog Design

Apparently I'm reinventing my blog here in 2011! Let me introduce some of our new features.

Obviously the background and layout are new, hope you like it. I tried to stick with the same basic "feeling"--but this layout comes with a lot more customizable options than my old one, which I really like.

To the left, some of the blogs I like to read. They span the gamut from other parenting blogs to funny blogs to infertility blogs to vegan and cloth diapering blogs. If you like my blog you might like some of them too--if you'd like me to consider adding your blog to my list, leave a comment and let me know!

Below this post you'll see that you can now "like" and "dislike" my posts--sometimes this is easier than leaving a comment. Personally, I can't count how many times I thought that I wanted to "like" someone's post, so I was thrilled to discover that I could add this.

I changed the number of posts on each page from 7 to 3. I think this makes the main page a bit more manageable, especially considering how I can ramble on some of the time. If you want to read older posts, just click on older posts on the bottom of the page, or use the blog archive to the right to find the last post you read and go from there. (Sorry if this is obvious to some, but my Mom also reads this blog--I was thinking of her while typing this paragraph, hehe.)

I also discovered that there is a world of unexplored gadgets in my settings tab. I'm sure there will be many more exciting new developments when I start to discover all the design doors these gadgets are opening for me.

Stay tuned!
