Help me with a camera...

Ok...If you are reading this and have a camera that you love, PLEASE comment and tell me about it. We have a little Cannon Powershot Camera that is fabulous for throwing in the diaper bag for quick candids, but it is a few years old, and I am wanting to upgrade. I'm still going to use that one to keep in my purse/diaper bag, but I would like a bigger camera to take nice pics of the boys. So basically, I'm looking to upgrade. I've looked at the Nikon D40 and the Cannon Rebel XTi, but I'm definitely open to any suggestions. Please give me your input...even if we've never met...I need help with this one!!
Thanks Bloggers!!!
I'll keep you updated with what we decide on.

Edited to add: Do I need 10 Megapixels or would I be fine with just 6???

I did the same thing right after KM was born. I got a Kodak Z812 IS. I absoultely love it, and it wasn't expensive at all compared to the others.

the nikons are great cameras but i have heard that they are not so user friendly - even to the point of taking a class to really learn how to operate them efficient/proficiently - while i love and hear all kinds of fabulous things about the nikon lenses etc i would have to say canon rebel as well! especially if that is the newest one out and i think it is right? we have the canon rebel digital and it is fantastic! love, brandi

You should really talk to Hays about cameras. He is the expert. He has helped Matt and I purchase all four...yes four...of our cameras. He will definitely help you out.

canon digital rebel xt all the way. Mine has 8 MP, but you would be fine with 6 unless you are doing some major cropping or blowing up prints to poster sizes!! I have had my digital rebel for 4 years, and I call it my second child, because I am always making sure i have it with me just like i do with luke!!
