baby showers. If

Onesie
– A

at the crotch that can easily be removed if there is a need for a
change of diaper for babies. You
need not to buy lots of onesies since it is the first to be outgrown
by the baby.
Footed
Sleepers

more protection for the baby. In

comfortable according to the weather. Footed sleepers are versatile
than other clothes since it can be used in daytime for playing and
for night-time for sleeping.

booties are for extra protection outdoors.
Hats
