UPDATED: Trouble with duplicate div tag...

Question

I am working on validating the code for my blog now as I
think that might solve some of the issues I am having. I was able
to clear out all of the xhtml errors except for one... a duplicate
sidebar div tag. One of them is at the bottom of the header file
and the other is at the top of the sidebar file.
My first thought was just to delete one of them so I tried
that and it validated. Problem is that it screwed up the layout on
my pages in Safari and Firefox when you do a search or look at any
of the archives, etc.
So I deleted the other one and it was worse.
I think this issue is what is making my search results and
archive results load below the sidebar... so it obviously needs to
be fixed, but Im not sure how.
The page is at
http://www.babybumps.net/blog
and the code is attached.
Any thoughts?

Try leaving the duplicate tag in, but renaming it to
something that is not a
duplicate first.
If that doesn't work, then we will have to take a closer look
at your code
and particularly your floated elements.
