Today is Lewis' birthday. He took off work Wednesday, Thursday & Friday of this week because I'm also off on fall break. Today we decided to have our babysitter keep Isis anyway so that we could have a day together just hanging out without a baby like we used to! It's crazy because we haven't had a day alone like this since before Isis was born!! Of course I ended up cleaning & organizing most of the morning, but now I'm just laying in bed watching a movie! In the middle of the day!!! Because I can.
But I'm also catching up on blog reading & thanks to Adriel's new Photography series at The Mommyhood Memos & then all Jhen's beautiful pics at From Here to Eternity, I'm thinking about the fact that I badly want a DSLR camera. It's my #1 wish list item for Christmas. If I got nothing but that, I would be so happy! It's like the gift that keeps on giving!
I really want a Canon Rebel xti, but I'm open to other suggestions. I also heard good things about a Nikon D40. But here's my question, since most of you are taking fabulous pics for your blogs...
What kind of camera do you have??
What do you like about it?

I have a NikonD5000 and I love it. The reason we got it is because I photograph all my children's many athletic endeavors and it does a really great job with it. It is a big camera so you can't really carry it everywhere. I have a little camera that I carry in my purse to catch all those random shots.
Good Luck hunting for your gift!
Also loving Adriel's photo tips. I wish I had some camera advice for you, but I'm in your boat. My camera is a five-year-old Sony digital something or other and I want a nice DSLR!
