Heres something for the apple of any new parents lives! Of course, as a grandmother, I feel the same way. This hat is only available in preemie and newborn sizes, but I think this would look adorable on toddlers, too. I love the leaf on top, but what about adding a curious little worm in a complimentary color? Dont stop at just red apples, either. Yellow and green would work, too.
