Too be honest. I stressed and agonised over this too and you know what, DD hasn't worn anything that I got her before she was born. She has only just got to 0000 I would be content with the basics you have and you can always go shopping or get someone to pick up a few things for you until you can go yourself. The bonds wondersuits are great, I also like to put a singlet suit on then a top and pants for night time - i find pants are easier to pull on then fighting with too many buttons in the middle of the night but you will work out what you like best quickly.
With DD i had singlets (about 5-10), the bonds wondersuits and then just the short sleeved and no legged bodysuits.
We didn't use pants or tops on her until she was well over a month old, the bodysuits and wondersuits were perfect.
You will use those short sleeved ones HEAPS over summer, i would suggest Muslin Wraps for a summer baby too (am about to buy a few for #2) as they still provide warmth but don't make them sweaty etc.
I used to wrap DD in her muslin wrap and then when she went to bed i had a nice light blanket for her or sometimes just a sheet in summer when it was too hot but she still wanted to be wrapt.
I guess I should stop manically buying stuff then!! I have bought just a couple of bodysuits to see if I like them and have seen that you can actually buy them at the supermarket so will not be a problem to pick up a couple more! Weather is warming up beautifully too so by the time he arrives might need different stuff! (38 weeks tomorrow...)
but you will work out what you like best quickly.
