Download form SET(M) from the UKBA website. The guide notes will tell you in detail what documents are required. Has your husband passed the Life in the UK test or completed an approved ESOL citizens course? He won't be granted ILR unless he has one or the other of these.
What was his date of entry into the UK? He can apply no earlier than 28 days before the equivalent date and no later than the visa expiry date.
Fees from the 1st October will be £1250 if ILR is applied for in person by prior appointment at one of the Home Office PEO's, or £900 if the application is sent by post.

Settlement application as a spouse / partner, when entry in the UK is delayed by upto 3 months, is subject to a
concession.

Section 10 of Form SET(M) lists documents required..bank statements, pay slips, proof of joint address spread over the 2 years etc.
I've already told you when you can apply with your husband. See previous post. To make it clear, he can apply no earlier than 28 days before his (equivalent) entry date 26th January..and no later than the visa expiry date.

If your husband is applying in person, you'll need to attend with him, or write a letter explaining why you can't be there. Your child won't be applying for a visa, so doesn't need to attend.
Do you have nothing more in the 2 years than one utility bill showing you're living together at the same address? Letters, bank statements??
What part of the country do you live?
You may be better to apply by post. It's cheaper too.

Any doctors/hospital letters? Submit a letter from your parents explaining why few documents/bills etc are in your names.
You will need to include your own passport with the application.
