    it's not the tool that makes the picture, it's the photographer.

    my recommendation is you don't HAVE to spend a lot on your gear.
    Learn to work with what you have.

    do some reading, look at a lot of photography, and learn what you like.

    i didnt read the whole thread, but i looked at your baby picture in your first post.

    learn about fill light. it can be flash, but it doesn't have to be. you can just use a simple white card and get beatiful light. and all that can be done with a point and shoot camera. sure the dslr is nice, but you don't need it to make good pictures.

    learn some basic lighting, some photoshop techniques, etc.

    just experiment and you will find techniques that work for you, and not have to blow a big amt of money to achieve the look you want.
