  It seems you have deleted that page. Create a new one in Pages > Add New, don’t turn into a child page, set it as your posts page in Settings > Reading, and update your custom menu accordingly.

  Example of hierarchical page structuring:

  Parent
  – Child
  – – Grandchild

  Hope this helps.

  No, now I can see two posts when I click “Blog”. Refresh your browser page or clear its cache.

  Heelo there,
  I click “Blog” and I see two posts. They are Breakfast!!! ans Hi. The fact you cannot see them points to a browser issue.

  Which browser and version of it are you using please?

  Also please follow these browser specific instructions again and see if that works.

  • changing your browser settings, refreshing the page, or clearing the browser cache and cookies – instructions for specific browsers.
  • Note that when you make adjustments to your browser settings — changing privacy settings, deleting cookies or increasing security — you will need to close your window and restart the browser before those new settings become effective.
  • You could try upgrading your browser.
  • You could try using another browser.

  If those troubleshooting techniques do not work for you there are others we can try. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2010/10/18/blogging-and-troubleshooting/

  Thanks guys…All is working except for my feature picture??? When I go to my pages and click edit blog it is on there but not on my site. It is the template header instead. I have checked different browsers and cleared my cache. This has to be something simple I am overlooking. I am using internet explorer 8

  Yes, it’ll be the default header image. Featured images replace the default header image when you view a single post or a static page. But when you set a static page as your posts page, you no longer see that static page: you just borrow its title, so to speak, to create a link to your latest posts (that is, what your homepage would normally display if you hadn’t set a static front).
