Cody Laur, 22, left, of Metamora, Mich., gets some help from Santa while waiting for the hospital to take a photo of him with his wife Alecia and their twins Wyatt and Westley in Hurley Medical Center's Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) in Flint, Mich. for Hurley's 2nd Annual Baby's 1st Christmas Party, on Dec. 17. Santa was on the scene to take pictures with the babies, and he volunteers to give each family a special scrapbook page, prepared especially for them.

Great photo! Congratulations and HO HO HO!!!!!!!!
LOVE IT!
LOVE IT! Brings a tear to my eye!
Merry Christmas!
That is the sweetest thing! I love it! What a great scrappin' opportunity. :-)
What a wonderful keepsake for their baby book and a "When you were just a baby...." story when the boys are a little older!
Yup, that one's a tear-jerker.
Why is there a two liter bottle of Mountain Dew in the hospital? Are they trying to get the babies all juiced up on Mountain Dew?
Awesome picture. I love the 2 liter bottle of mountain drew. I have a feeling they will be consuming lots of mountain drew with twins.
My twins will be a year old on the 26th...this picture takes me right back to one year ago when they too were in the NICU...I think the dad is on the right track with the Mt. Dew, caffeine and good sense of humor are two of the best tools to get through the first year. Good luck and enjoy every minute, it's a great ride!!
Merrell Mess twins,
Congrats!! Awesome pics!! You are about to be educated on NICU twins, you will learn much!!
My twin girls are in a NICU in Ny State. We have been at the NICU for about 35 days, hoping to
leave in about another 40 days give or take. It is a experiance, expect to shead some tears and also
expect some of the best and happiest times of your life. You will find it hard to be away from the NICU!
I hope you have a great experiance as the docters are great, and the nurses will soon be allmost family to you.
Just a great bunch of people!!
Best Regards,
J and J Bing, N.Y.
I love this pic:) What a lucky man he was to get a tasty caffeinated drink from Santa Claus, and a helping hand:)
I hope they were able to get a copy of the pic to show off to their kids when they're older.
My 3rd child spent 8 days in the NICU had to spend Thanksgiving with our nurses but I will say the nurses and doctors of the NICU's are wonderful people and blessings in disguise!!! Glad we weren't there when Santa came that year!!!
