There is only one page in any blog that we can post to and by default it’s the front page of the blog. Though we cannot post to more than one page we can create the appearance we have done so. What’s critical is knowing that the static pages we blogger create will never automatically update. http://en.support.wordpress.com/pages/ Only dynamic Categories pages will automatically update when we publish posts.
Below is an example of a static page URL. Study it closely and note that no static Page can automatically update.

Study it closely please and note that only dynamic category pages can automatically update.
http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/category/basic-blogging/Setting up a menu is easy as pie, provided you know the differences between Posts and Pages, and the differences between static Pages, (which will never automatically update) and dynamic Categories pages which will automatically update when you publish Posts with Categories assigned to them.

Create a custom menu http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/
add the Pages to it http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/#adding-pages and order them as you please http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/#changing-the-order-creating-sub-menus -
I am a Volunteer and I cannot see into your private blog. I do not know if your “articles” is a reference to a single static page with text of your own creation on it. Or if you are actually referring to a dynamic Articles categories page that will automatically update when you publish posts with the “articles” category assigned to them.
