    I really like the first one.
    Composition and exposure is very good. I like the tight crops. The first one shows your 'baby' off very well. It is a photo of her and about her without anything extra or distracting.

    The second is also a good shot, I just think that the fingertips and polka-dotted shoulder is a bit distracting.

    No 1 for me

    Very natural shots of a beautiful model.

    I love the eyes and the close crop of the first image. The second seems a little more contrived and there seems a darkness around the eyes (may be my monitor).

    I would be interested to know what lighting you use on these shots as they are very effective.

    Thanks for sharing

    These were taken with nothing more than window light.

    You've placed her very well in relation to the lighting--no shadows or anything. I like the first one most--the crop, the expression, etc, nice "colors" in terms of dark/light. Second one's real good too, however you may want to turn the stuffed animal's "face" a little more towards the camera just to get a better sense of what it is, though of course not so much that that face takes over the shot. Second one looks a liiiiitle posed. Well, I mean of course its posed, but I'm not really feelin the attachment she has towards it.
