Myrtle Beach is great...you can go there for really cheap. We go there as a family about 4 times a year and have been since I was 9. But if you're looking for an amusement park that wouldn't be great because the main one (Pavillion) closed a couple years ago. There is another one (Family Kingdom, I think it's called), but it's not as good IMO - we only went there once quite a few years ago...might be better now. There are a few water parks, though.
Six Flags in Georgia is GREAT! I loved it there. There's Carowinds in Charlotte, NC, too.
Hilton Head, SC is gorgeous & makes a good family vacation.
We went to St. Augustine as a family when I was younger & had a BLAST. It's BEAUTIFUL & everything's really old (cobblestone streets in town). Then we drove down to Cocoa Beach (not sure if it's spelled that way).
In Florida, you could also do Orlando Studios. That's a fantastic amusement park, too. Plus, I'm pretty sure it's quite a bit cheaper than Disney. & Sea World is the best IMO (next to Disney, of course) and cheaper. Great for kids because they get to see all the animals.
There's also Discovery Cove where you can swim with dolphins...but that wouldn't be good with a baby. SOOOOOO fun, though.
