Have you heard of Pinterest? You have? Grr. I was the last one on the planet to get skinny jeans, too.
I made my own pinboard page tonight, and I'm thinking it's really inspirational. Fun. Addicting.

My husband's probably the only one who hasn't heard of it, so I'll explain it to you, Matt (since Carter started singing about mailboxes when I attempted to show you my laptop screen earlier. And? Husbands always listen in blogs). You use this virtual pinboard whenever you see anything on the internet you like. You pin it to your page. Followers get to know your style, You can remember items you want to get without having to save the website on your computer as a bookmark.

You draw inspiration from the people whose collections you're following - I have 4 followers so far, and I already followed them back, stole & repinned their cutest ideas to my page. I'm going to be so organized picking out decorations for our new house and planning Carter's birthday parties. Right now I've just been seeking out pretty dresses, gorgeous pictures, playroom ideas and things I want Carter to have some day.

It's working as a great substitute for online shopping, minus the buyer's remorse. And ... errm ... the exciting package that comes in the mail.

    How do you get started? Apparently I have to ask for an invitation and wait for the response. Is this what you did? How long did you wait for the response?
