It's safe to say that 2018 hasn't exactly been rainbows and butterflies, but the year has also brought many wonderful things: We've been treated to multiple royal weddings (including, yes, Priyanka Chopra's) as well as a year in celebrity coupledom that's given us all the feels.
But one of our favorite parts of 2018 has been the births of so many snuggly, adorable A-list babies. From Prince William and Kate Middleton's newest junior royal, Prince Louis, to the multiple princesses of Calabasas (looking at you, True, Chicago, and Internet-breaking Stormi), there were so many debuts to celebrate, whether it was a celebrity's first child or a wonderful new addition to the brood. Meet the famous babies of 2018, right this way.
Chicago West
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's third child was born via a surrogate in January and almost immediately nicknamed "Chi." She was the first of 2018's three Kardashian-Jenner additions to be born.

Stormi Webster
Kylie Jenner never confirmed her pregnancy (with boyfriend Travis Scott) until little Stormi was actually born in February. "My beautiful and healthy baby girl arrived February 1st and I just couldn't wait to share this blessing. I've never felt love and happiness like this I could burst," she wrote on Instagram shortly after Stormi was born.

(Kylie's first photo of her daughter, by the way, broke Instagram's record for most-liked photo of all time—not too bad of a debut for the newest member of this social-media-loving family.)
True Thompson
There was much drama surrounding the April birth of Khloé Kardashian's first child with NBA player Tristan Thompson: His cheating scandal broke right before she went into labor with their adorable daughter, True. But the new mom seems be loving her latest role—and is still with Thompson.

We are so grateful."
