Summer nights

what is everyone planning on doing for these warmer nights coming up as far as pjs for LOs? Right now my son sleeps in a sleeveless sleep sack and has a small fan for white noise. He also refuses to sleep without a blanket. So I'm not sure what to put him in when it starts to get a lot warmer. We don't like to use our ac all that much. I don't really want him to just sleep in a diaper because my sister always did that with my niece and she's 3 now and refuses to wear clothes. 
Also what is a safe way to help with mosquitos/bugs? I've always been told no bug spray or deet for them until they're so what's a good way to ward them off?

    I've been wondering the same about night time clothes, she has been wearing fleece onesies but lately I feel like that's too hot. I have one cotton shirt and pants set so I've just been washing that a lot.

    My ped told us bug spray is OK, I'm a little skeptical though. I have an all natural bug spray I use for myself (sandlewood and citronella oil, basically), it works well, just have to reapply often. I think I might use that for her too, unless the bugs are really bad here this summer.

    I believe they have cotton sleep sacks. We plan on doing light cotton footed pajamas, but we also plan to have the air on since my DH had a freak out moment because he read they shouldn't sleep in rooms that are warmer than 74° (win win for me since I hate sleeping when it's hot anyway)

    Omgosh. My husband read the same thing and is insisting on keeping the temperature set at 68 degrees. I've been freezing for the last 6 months. OP maybe you could just put him in a light long sleeve onesie and a thin sleep sack.

    We've got short sleeve cotton zip jammies and cotton sleep sacks. Also have the fan on and she sleeps fine.

    Short sleeve jammies and the cotton SwaddleMe things fastened under her armpits.  Halo makes a muslin sleep sack, if she seems sweaty I'll get one or 2 of those.  We also keep a window open that's not near her bassinet.

    I read big spray is ok as long as it's under a certain percent of deet

    LO has fleece and cotton pj's. I was a Kohls yesterday buying pj's in the next size and I discovered that they have super lightweight footed pj's. They're almost moisturizer wicking thin. I was buying in 12 month so I'm not sure if they are in the smaller sizes.

    A onesie is what our LO sleeps in. Just a thin  onesie. She gets aggravated otherwise
