Although the first puppy is cute, I would pass on her. Those big rounded ears are not what I look for and I am curious as to why the breeder cut the hair on her face like that. The second one is a little better choice, just going on the first impression of a picture. Hard to tell. But I always like to watch them play, see their personality and see most of all how they react to me and mine. Take a good lookat their back to make sure they are developing a straight topline and not showing signs of roachback or sway. Check joints to ensure they feel tight, no slippage. Check her bite.

Ensure you are dealing with a good AKC breeder. Look at both dam and sire. See where the puppies are kept and where the adults are kept. Check the list to see if she has had any AKC suspensions. Ask for a reference or two who has one of her puppies. Ask for a vet referral who will vouch for her. Review a copy of her health guarantee. There is a sticky on here that lists things to look for as well.
