[HTML5 - CSS3] Responsive navigation tabs resting at bottom of header element

I am trying to build out a tab based navigation that rests at the bottom of my header element in my web site.  The problem is that I am building it to be a fluid responsive design much like http://joshuasortino.com/.  The problem I have is that my tabs are not resting at the bottom of the header and when I resize my browser it doesn't flow with the rest of the document.  Below is my pertinent code:

HTML:
<header class="pagetop">
	
    <a href="index-html5.php"><img src="../images/template/varasight-logo.png" title="VaraSight Surveillance, A Division Of Feeney Wireless, LLC." alt="VaraSight Surveillance, A Division Of Feeney Wireless, LLC." border="0" class="logo"></a>
    <nav>
    	<ul>
      	<li class="tab"><a href="/">HOME</a></li>
    		<li class="tab"><a href="/">Products</a></li>    
    		<li class="tab"><a href="/">Services</a></li> 
    		<li class="tab"><a href="/">Company</a></li>
    		<li class="tab"><a href="/">Contact</a></li>  
    		<li><a href="http://feeneywireless.com" target="_blank"><img src="../images/template/division-of-feeney-wireless.png" title="A Division Of Feeney Wireless" alt="A Division Of Feeney Wireless" border="0"></a></li> 
    </nav>
</header>

Thanks so much! That is perfect!  Would you recommend conditional styles rather than multiple CSS files for the different resolutions?  Thanks again!
It works the same, but if you use single file there are less request to server, which improve speed of website download.
Cool, thanks again man!  That helps a ton!
