I purchased a Casio Exilm Ex-Z1000 about 5 Months ago and have had an absolutely wonderful experience with it thus far. At around 249$ this camera is an Awsome buy. The quality of pictures that I have been able to take, has been comparable or better than those of any Huge cameras that my freinds own. All of the exilm series camera are small, easy to use, and have great quality. The one down side to such a small camera is the lack of major zoom. However the 3x Optical zoom has proven to be more than sufficiant for any every day shots. Due to the fact that the camera is 10.1 Megapixels, i was able to take a picture of a butterfly from about 4 feet away, then later zoom in using the camera's and cropping function, was able to see in clairity the individual hairs on his body. I have traveled to both Austrialia and the Bahamas with this camera and have yet to be dissapointed in any way. It uses SD memory cards, which are widely available and at a reasonable cost. I would suggest a 1gb or more card, just due to the fact that once you start taking pictures, you will not want to stop. I purchased the Sandisk Extreme III 1GB card, which allows me to take about 230 pictures. Another nice feature of the camera is the fact that you have a decent quality video feature built into it. While i wouldn't recomend recording your child's first steps with it, it's a great feature to have for everyday use. I will be glad to show you some examples of the photo's I have taken using this camera if you would like to contact me at icyblue1986@yahoo.com I tell all of my freinds, about the nothing but wonder experience that i have had with this camera, i would certainly recommend this model. The image quality and convenience more than out weigh the lack optical zoom. I would personally recommend this camera if for no other reason than the convenience, being small allows you to have it with you and get a shot of something rare, as where the bulkier SLR cameras sit at home and collect dust. Hope this helps, Good Luck!

There are several. Kodak Easyshare with a docking station or printer station are built for people who want digital pictures but don't know much about computers.
HP also makes cameras and printer stations.
Barring that, any point & shoot camera will do for taking pictures. Then you can get a photo printer or a printer with a card slot or (better yet - save some $$$) bring your memory card to WalMart and have them make your prints.
Printing your own pictures is relatively expensive.
