Either camera will be great for you. They're both very good entry-level cameras, in fact, slightly above entry-level.
At this point, here are my recommendations: go to a local store which has both cameras (a camera shop, Target, maybe WalMart). Try them both in your hands. Pay attention to how comfortable it is to hold the camera (is the grip too big? too small? do you feel cramped or stretched?). Try using the menus and controls. Do you feel comfortable reaching everything?
One thing you should NOT worry about, in the store, is how good the images look. Demo models in stores may be beat up and not representative -- you'll get great images out of either camera.
After you've found out which one feels better, start working on the really important things: composition, use of colors, lines, shapes, how to pose people, focus, and generally make a good image (it's more about you than your camera!). After that -- after a long time of that! -- you might start thinking about new lenses. Until then, don't worry about any more equipment.
Just my 2 cents. Hope it helps!
