How to dress a baby that is being carried during a hike?

When you carry a baby in a baby-carrier, it protects you from the wind and is almost an extra "layer" of clothing. It is preferable to dress the baby in a light and breathable bodysuit. Be sure to cover as many parts of the body as possible to protect from the sun, and don't forget hat and glasses!
