Construction: Caution Ahead

I knew after I received my referral and that my Spud was not a Haven that I was going to have to re-tool the blog.  I had planned on pimping it before I left for Vietnam, but you all know how rushed things can get once you have travel plans in hand.  And since Spud is sharing his nursery with me (was and still is my office until my contractor/cousin builds me another unit in another room of my house) I rarely get much computer time.  He is a light sleeper and the tapping of the keys wakes him up.  Fortunately for me, I was too lazy to move his pack 'n play where he sleeps back into this room after Auntie Krissy and cousin Catherine's visit for the past few days.  Yay, for me! 

So I am staying up way past my bedtime to work on the lay out.  It's not done yet--I don't like the dotted background and I am going to work on the header some more, but ya'll may be stuck with it for a few days until I have the time to work on it again.  If you like it let me know, if you have specific suggestions, let me know those as well.  I'm not really sure beyond the poem what I really want in the header.
