Yes. If you have manual options, take it off of auto, fix the ISO at something like 200, open the aperture as wide as it will go and slow down the shutter as much as you need to to get the shot. 9 out of 10 will be blurry because you shake or the baby moves, but sometimes it works out.

I've never used Lightroom. Looks like it might be fun to play with - neat feature list. I have two laptops running Ubuntu, but neither one is getting much use right now. They're a bit long in the tooth.
