Housekeeping

Ahh, wouldn't it be nice if there really was a sweet little lady who showed up and knocked everyday? "Housekeeping?" The housekeeper around here has gone on vacation. Beautiful weather, teething babies, and cheesecake have apparently been calling her name. Good thing she works for food. ;)

Actually, I'm just talking about my little self-inflicted blog makeover. :) I lost my background some months ago and have just been too tired to redo. I have all these great blogs I follow and yet don't share them on my sidebar. (If you'd rather not be linked, please let me know!) So here's to a little housekeeping!

I'm in need of some help. Pretty please with a cherry AND whipped cream on top! Does anyone know how to make the picture on my header center? I cannot for the life of me figure it out. I would love to know so when I find time to actually make the header picture I want I can put it in the right place. I rather like symmetry. Which is ironic since most of the pictures on my wall are a little crooked right now. But I'd rather be blogging. Just keeping it real, ladies (I suppose I should add and gentlemen though I don't think any men read this).

Any tips/ where you get your cute backgrounds/ where you make your collage headers would be greatly appreciated. I've been in a design rut.

For two years.

I think it might take some major pushing, prodding, pulling and late night chocolate to get things cleaned up around here.

If you made it to the end of this you deserve an award. Or a piece of cheesecake. Not that I have any left, but if I did it would be eaten in your honor.

And on that note, I'm heading to bed.

Your welcome!

Looks great! And now that you mention it, I guess my background disappeared awhile ago too. You've inspired me to look into it...sometime...
I love the picture at the top. Unfortunately, I don't know how to center it, but it's definitely a great one of your adorable kiddos.

I love the new background. I got a lot of help from Picasa and Picnik. They are both free photo editing places - picasa is a download, picnik is web-based. That's how I designed my header. As far as centering it is concerned, I have no idea! I just lucked out, I guess. :)

Sorry... not sure about centering. But, I honestly didn't notice. I was too caught up in how cute the picture is!
