We're trying to find something stroller/baby friendly (well-behaved friendly - she loves being out and about and VERY rarely fusses - we're lucky!) and indoors.
Last time my husband and I were in DC, we did the Spy Museum and the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History.
We're willing to go to DC or Annapolis (my husband has never been to Annapolis) or stay in Baltimore (we've done the Inner Harbor and can't fathom paying $25/pp for the National Aquarium), but as much as I'd love to wander around outside, it is just not a good idea for the baby.
Any suggestions?

Ok....well not much to do inside...but...If you don't want to do the Harbor, you always have Fells Point which is a lot less packed than the Harbor and has some really nice eateries.
You can try Annapolis and I would recommend going early because it gets crowded fairly quickly.
Also as an out of the way spot, Old Ellicott City is nice especially if you like the antique shops and there is a nice brewery restaurant (kid friendly!) that is there...try their crabcakes!!
If you do come to DC and don't want to go to the Smithsonian, try hitting Georgetown (again go early) or the Smithsonian. Also, the tidal basin by the Jefferson Memorial is pretty good if you DO decide you want to walk and if you can find a shady spot, it's ok..BTW try the National history museum as it's just been redone and reopened.
