The time goes by incredibly fast. Keep a camera handy and try to document as much as you can. That's the biggest regret I've heard from other people with older kids (they wish they took more photos).

At least with my grand-daughter we shoot her all the time. There are many people around her and most are photographers. She loves the camera too.

It was a little bit of a pain when my sons were growing up -- in the film days.

I have a DSLR, a hybrid DSLR, 2 point and shoots, and a HD digital video recorder. My iPhone is used daily for pictures and video because it's glued to my hand. The DSLR is out on special occasions, the hybrid is on the kitchen and used when I want a slightly better photo than what my phone will take... Basically, don't get wrapped up in forking out big money for a DSLR. I recommend something small and compact, that way you're more likey to use it.

especially this day and age, digital picts are easy to make albums and stuff vs going to 1hr photo's. remember those? lol that was when kodak was still sort of cool. and polaroid? lol i still have my encyclopedia looking photo albums my parents made for me. lol

for me, pictures are great for formal events. i personally like short video clips more. kids speak (make noise) and move around quick and in their funny ways so it's great to capture that. i find myself enjoying my kids' video clips more than picts. i only use a cheapo blog camera or my droid to take like 15sec clips to about 5min.

thanks to mr.gale, im using imovie to edit my clips on my MBP. super easy!
