I think I would've preferred a black background on 1 & 2...the white just fades into her bow and skin. I love the positioning though.
 
Nice shots. I like #3 a lot. My only problem with it is that the towel bundle and bright floor seem to dominate the picture. I'd try cropping out some of the floor, maybe a square crop?
 
Yes, much better. I actually like more negative space on top...for me, don't know why, but it makes it look more professional and less snap-shot like. One would think it would be the opposite, but it's not at least for me. I like the idea of using just a darker color rather than a black. You still get the contrast without it seeming like nothing is there. I think these are better (I can see the bow better zoomed out for some reason).
 
I hope you don't mind me giving your picture an edit. I really like the shot put couldn't quite figure how to make it better. Once I commented I figured i had to try.

This is more what I had in mind.

I made a change to the white balance to warm him up a bit (more red) while taking some of the yellow out of the wood. Fussed with curves a bit trying to emphasize the baby. Square crop.

I hope you like it,

I like all 3 images, I do prefer Desi's crop. My preference is make the baby the subject and do close in shots so I would even crop in closer with the basket shot and add a little noise to taste for a more authentic look maybe if you wanted to try for a 70's aged feel. Good shots:thumbup:.
