I thought this was absolutely adorable, and it has a matching blanket that can be purchased as well. This is what we dressed our son in on his day home from the hospital. It was July, and the material is not too thick to be hot. It did fade a tiny bit when washing, but I only know that because I washed the outfit several times, but never the blanket that matches, and when I compared the two later, the outfit was noticeably lighter.
