Trying out some photography...

So, I have this friend named Charity who takes really awesome pictures of her baby, and it inspired me to try to figure out how she did it.  I have a Nikon D40X, and there are so many different settings that I have never looked at (I just use the automatic setting).  So Bobby and I sat down for a long time trying to figure out how to get the best indoor and outdoor pictures.  After a couple of hours of looking at youtube videos and reading up on the Nikon, I was pretty pleased with the settings we found for outside pictures.  Here are the results:

But when it came to indoor pictures, I'm a little disappointed.  Our house is rather dark, and I just can't figure out how to get a warm-colored, non-blurry photo inside.  We tried to take a few of Gia, and here are our results.

If anyone has any tips, let me know!
