Baby Talk

At three months old, Harlow was already getting chatty, according to grandma Brenda. "The other day I was holding her, and [she] said, "Hi!"" Nicole Richie's mom told Us in April 2008. "Nicole talks to Harlow constantly, and she tries to answer back!"

Just Like Mom!

"He is a mover and shaker," Aguilera (with Max in NYC in September 2008) has told Us of her son. "He is constantly moving, constantly banging on things. I don't know what that means; maybe he is a drummer in the making."

Picture Perfect

"The day before [the first public photos] came out, I was nervous, because there was going to be a picture of my daughter everywhere," Richie told Harper's Bazaar when she posed with her then 6-month-old daughter in the magazine's June 2008 issue.

Sharing Is Caring

"I think it's important to share what I love -- what makes me me -- with my son," the singer (with Max at an L.A. pumpkin patch in October 2009) has said. "I change diapers and I breastfeed him and I play with him and then I work. I want to show Max everything about me."

Happy Family

"We are going to do it because we want to, not because that's what you do," Richie (with Harlow and beau Madden at Kidstock in Beverly Hills in May 2009) has said of marriage. "We're going to do it when the time is right."

Her Inspiration

Max inspired most of Aguilera's upcoming album, Bionic, out in March. "[It] is just about the future -- my son in my life, motivating me to want to play and have fun," the star (in L.A. in December 2009) recently said.
