The Summer of the Baby is in full swing. This week alone welcomed two new arrivals from Nicole Kidman and Matthew McConaughey (not together, silly, that'd be weird). Plus, Angelina's chilling in a French hospital, waiting to pop.

With so many awesome moppets, it's hard to decide which ones to love the most. So we're here to help! We've boiled the A-list baby pool down to nine that sport a certain spritely magic—and not just the biggest paydays for magazine covers. We left No. 10 open for you to decide.

So which hot tots made the cut?

1. Shiloh Jolie-Pitt: She's a product of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, which means an automatic No. 1 spot on any baby list. At least until George Clooney slips and knocks somebody up. Also, we gotta give Shi a shout-out before those twins totally overshadow her.

2. Kingston Rossdale: Gwen and Gavin's kid just oozes cool, even when sucking on a pacifier. It could just be the killer kicks, but he's also the most easygoing guy around, happily hanging out in parks with everybody else's kids.

3. Levi Alves McConaughey: Sure he's supernew, but he's destined for bestness. We can't wait to see Matt's little man surfing, grilling, playing bongos and hanging with Lance Armstrong. Don't have to worry about his privacy, either—the surfer gang's got his back.

4. Suri Cruise: We're not sure whether it's the fancy designer dresses or cute shoes or priceless pout, but her adorableness is more than enough to trump whatever bizarro hijinx her parents get into.

5. Emme Anthony: Jennifer Lopez can't choose favorites, but we can! Yes, it's true. Emme is our favorite J.Lo twin, but there's still time for Max to bad-mouth Spencer Pratt on Letterman and become our new favorite twin.

6. Barron Trump: The Donald is his dad, but that's not his fault. What's really remarkable is his closet of crazy-preppy clothes—knee socks, cable-knit sweaters tied around his shoulders, this jacket and lots of Ralph Lauren. He's a mini-Chuck Bass waiting to happen.

7. Johan Riley Fyodor Taiwo Samuel: How could the very publicly affectionate couple of Heidi Klum and Seal not make one of the best babies around? There's so much love there. Plus, spectacular hair!

8. Violet Affleck: This adorable Affleck-Garner production is always out running errands with her mom and the paparazzi. But she seems so cheerful about it, and that makes our hearts smile, just a little.

9. Nahla Ariela Aubry: Mom Halle is a superhero (more Storm than Catwoman) and dad Gabriel is a supermodel. Super plus super, raised to the power of utter hotness, equals one of the best babies of Hollywood. Plus, does your mom have an Oscar?

10. [YOUR CHOICE HERE] Where are the spawn of Nicole Richie, Christina Aguilera and Tori Spelling?! And yeah, what about that other J.Lo twin? Let us know the missing baby that will make our list truly magical.
