Every family needs some quality vacation time together. This summer, Kate Moss took her daughter, Lila Grace, to Saint-Tropez for some fun in the sun. How cute is little Lila with her long blonde hair that matches Mommy's? "She's a Mini-Me," says Kate. Kate's friend Lily Allen is just as obsessed with Team Moss as we are: She tagged along with the two for some beach time.

Ever since Milla Jovovich had her daughter, Ever Gabo, the two have been inseparable. Says the proud mama: "Having a baby is the most incredible thing I've ever done as a person—and also the biggest single teacher in the world for me is my child." At the playground, Ever Gabo giggles in delight as Mommy pushes her on the swings.

When Alessandra Ambrosio and boyfriend Jamie Mazur welcomed little Anja Louise into the world, their lives were completely transformed. "We have now felt a new kind of love and joy that we never knew existed," says Alessandra. Here she takes a break from a stroll on the beach with Anja to point out the seagulls to her.

Heidi Klum Just call Heidi Klum supermom. "We were always looking around the table and always thought one more would be nice. And we kind of took one baby at a time, and every time we thought, Yeah, one more, that's it.... But I think now it's the first time I feel like this is it," she says. Even though very pregnant, she still finds time to play with her kids. Be careful with that ball, Henry!

It seems twins are in these days. In Toronto with a hip (and pink!) stoller for two, Rebecca Romijn takes daughters Dolly Rebecca Rose and Charlie Tamara Tulip out on the town. Says Rebecca: "They're starting to think that things are hilarious, like they're noticing the dogs as being anything other than furniture. The dogs were play-fighting the other day and they thought that was hysterical." We love girls who have a sense of humor!

It seems like only yesterday Brooke Shields became the youngest model ever to grace the cover of Vogue back when she was 14. Now she's all grown up with youngins of her own, but they seem to have a grapple on where they come from. "The thing I'm the most proud of in my personal life is that my daughter actually thinks that I'm fabulous," says Brooke. Looks like fabulousness is a passable trait! People couldn't take their eyes off the model mom and her daughter Grier Hammond when they were at a dog park in Los Angeles recently.

The always dazzling Christie Brinkley hit the town with daughter Alexa Ray Joel for the 6th Annual Wayuu Taya Foundation Gala at the Stephen Weiss Studio. Looks like Alexa really made out in the genetics department: Not only is she gorgeous like her model mom, but it seems that dad Billy Joel passed on his vocal skills, too. "I love to hear her sing," says Christie of her eldest child.

At the 2nd Annual Pregnancy Awareness Month Celebration, Josie Maran poses with her date for the occasion: her daughter, Rumi. "My daughter loves getting messy," Josie says. Hmmm... Could that have anything to do with the fact that Josie gave birth to Rumi in her backyard?

Having a famous mom like Cindy Crawford means you probably get to hang with other famous people. We're sure lucky Kaia and Presley were ecstatic when they got to go to Miley Cyrus' Sweet 16 with their mom. But Cindy, of course, was happy to share in the fun. "Having children really changes your priorities."

Backstage at New York Fashion Week in February 2009, Natalia Vodianova shows daughter Neva what she does for a living. The pair pose for a shot as Natalia reflects on how far she's come in life: "I have done it. I have everything I want. I have made enough money to secure my family and that is all I care about."
