Subject: [Leica] Camera Shake

In trying to photograph my ACTIVE fourteen month old daughter, I'm
losing a lot of well-composed pictures with great facial expressions to
camera shake.  I think that my daughter's constant movement, which
forces me to rush for pictures and prevents the use of a tripod, is a
contributing factor.  Trying to get down to her level also seems to
increase the problem, but I am able to capture her facial expressions
better from down there, I think.  The Leica sling made by Lutz Konermann
would, I believe, allow me to grip my M6 better and improve results, but
he seems to be out of town indefinitely, and I've tired of missing good
moments while I wait.  Is there any technique or gadget I could use to
improve my photographs?  Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
