So we are about 95% done with the Garden of Many makeover. I have to be honest and tell you I didn’t think I would make it here. I never thought it would be such a headache moving from blogger to word press . I would tell anyone that is thinking about doing it , either open a play word press account and make sure you know what you are doing . Or hire someone to do it for you, it is a lot of work. I jumped in with two feet and WOW . I never thought it would be so confusing , all the girls over at Momdot make it sound to easy and it is far from that!

Themes , omg themes. Did you know there is hundreds of different themes out there . I must of picked over 50 , I wish I was inclined enough to know how to take bit and pieces from one and bits from another to make my perfect theme.Stefanie and I spent hours on top of hours at night looking at themes. It was crazy .

I have to say thanks to some amazing people that helped me get my blog to where it is with my makeover . Stefanie over at Mommys Quiet Time we spent so many hours each night trying to figure things out ! Stefanie is working on my button and my social buttons for my site. If you are looking for some graphics done for your makeover make sure to check Stefanie out.

Stef, Love ya girl and thanks so much for being by my side, I would have gave up long ago if you would not have help me through it and listened to me complain!

Rhea over at Mommy Two Three Monkeys , was awesome and did my header and found my great background for me ! She also helped do some css for me ! Rhea thanks so so much , I just love my new look!  Also check out Rhea if you are looking for some graphics for your blog or website !

Cat, OMG Cat. Cat is your word press Guru, she helped me out with a lot of css ! She helped me get things going where they needed to go and get some things working for me! Cat also offers a service for those of you that are wanting to transfer your blog from blogger to word press ! Make sure you check out her blog over at 3 Kids and Us .Cat also just launched her new blog Food for 5 , it is great and you must check it out for some great recipes.

I was becoming so stressed that I had to hire someone to help me get things finished up and all together. I was lucky enough that one of the members from the forum I belong to came to my rescue! Matt from Words of a Poet , make sure you check out his site too!

So what do you all think of the new look, like I mentioned there is still a few things that need to be tweaked or added. I hope for it to be 100% finished by tomorrow night !

Leave me some comments and if you have any suggestions that would be awesome.

If you have a few spare minutes please click on the button I have on the sidebar about Baby Darby , him and his family need our prayers !
