That baby ought to be in pictures — lots of pictures! Baby's first day will seem like a blur to everyone involved in the lil one's birth.

Digital devices have made capturing your family's precious memories easier than ever. When kids' milestones and funny moments pop up, it's rare that Mama doesn't have a digital camera or iPhone at the ready.

Here's your guide to taking, organizing, and actually enjoying all your digital snaps.

I remember when online photo editing sites were practically nonexistent, and you had to drop a load of cash to buy into software like Photoshop. That situation is a thing of the past thanks to free online photo editing websites that can turn your snapshots from drab to fab in just a few clicks. Here, find nine online photo editing sites that are totally free.

Time flies while you're watching your children grow, and photos offer the only known window to the past. Digital cameras mean more pictures without film cost restrictions so more parents are playing shutterbug — posing newborns for precious pics and tackling toddlers for a quick capture. Instead of taking thousands of snapshots for your Facebook or family blog, do your family a favor and aim to capture the most standout moments and leave the rest to your memory. Here are the 15 photos you should make sure to take this and every year, and one terrifying scene you can delete from the pose list.
