Having small baby as main charactor in a films is hard, but thought these movies pulled it off nicely.

Not in any particular order:

Baby's Day Out (1994): Written by John Hughes, it follow comical misadventure of a baby on the loose in Mnahattan.

3 Men and A Baby (1987): Three bachelors find themselves forced to take care of a baby left by one of the guy's girlfriends. Tom Selleck is actually pretty funny in this movie.

Raising Arizona (1987): Arguably, one of Coen Brothers best film-and probably Nicolas Cage's too.

I loathed 3 Men And A Baby. Took a date to see it back when. Of course she adored it. Don't even get me started on the Talking Baby things.

I hate those movies where baby talk. The expression on their face and subject matter they are talking about is never in sync and not funny...unless you are Stewie Griffin :D

I thought Three Men and a Baby was pretty funny. There is chemistery between Tom Selleck, Steve Guttenberg, and Ted Danson which makes this movie work. But the sequel Three Men and a Little Lady was a disaster. May be it was the sequel you saw and loathed.
