1. Yes, you can perform Umrah with your baby.
2. It is not necessary for children to don the Ihram or perform Umrah and Hajj. If they do it, it is rewarding for parents and a spiritual exercise for children.

وينبغي لولي من احرم من الصبيان ان يجرده و يغسله و يلبسه ثوبين ازارا و رداء و يجنبه ما يجتنب المحرم في احرامه فان فعل شيئا من محظورات الاحرام فلا شيء عليه و لا علي وليه لاجله لان الصبي غير مخاطب
