When I was only a month or two pregnant with my daughter, I was buying up all the baby girl swimsuits at Target for her anticipated summer arrival. Each one, whether its pattern or shape or adornment, had me swooning. My daughter is now nearly 10 years old, and every time I’m in Target around this time of year, I take a quick spin through the baby clothes section and marvel at just how sweet and small and oh-so-adorable all of the pieces are. But something about those baby swimsuits just melts my heart. Here are the absolute cutest swimsuits for baby and toddler girls available at Target right now.
