Content: (17/30)
Started here and ended on the index. I don't know. All of your entries are about your children, which is something I can understand, as you are a stay-at-home-mom. But you don't always seem happy about where your life is. You're not always happy with Jerry and you don't seem to get out and do much... I don't know. You sound like you want to, so you should! Also, your typing is absolutely wretched. Taking shortcuts like "tho" and "LOL" are just... annoying to a reviewer. And your spelling is atrocious. It's not that hard to learn to type correctly, just for ease of reading. It's not hard to run a spell-check either, if you don't want to type it out. Either way, that would definately strike a reviewer if you have good spelling, instead of if you have bad spelling. Your content itself is.. well... not that interesting to me. I'm not a SAHM, and I don't ever really want to be one for very long. Most of the things you talk about also aren't things that I would really want to remember. When I write, it's a time for me to put down the things I want to remember from the day: the good stuff, the important stuff...whatever. Not the stuff that I know won't come in handy in 20 years when I can't remember what life was like now. I would focus more on writing about... the things that really matter to you, and on expanding your emotions. You just kind of state your emotions and don't ever elaborate on them. I can't emotionally identify with you at all because of that. That's what I would work on.
Design: (15/30)
The text box is wonky. Nothing really fits within the pink part, which is the idea. The design is very wide, as wide as my wide-screen screen, which is pretty damn wide. I like the pictuers all around the outside: that looks good to me. I don't like the huge number of clicky-flashy-moving banners at the top and bottom of each entry. Make a separate page for them. Same with the weather thing. Also, your font is insanely childish looking. It drives me crazy that I know you're over 20, but your font throws me off to thinking you're like, 13. I know the font is called Kristen and it's not like, child-script or anything, but it just looks childish. If you're going for a mature site, change it. I don't know. The whole site just seems to present a very childish look, but maybe that's what you're going for with the pictures and colors.
Update: (8/10)
Every three days, if not more often. That's pretty good. There's not much consistency to your entries anyway, so just keep it up.

Well it works, but I"m not a fan of the asterisks. What do they do?, like, what purpose do they serve?

Further Comments:
Really kinda creeped out that you're married to a man who could almost be your grandfather.
