Santa Claus took timeout from his busy workshop on Thursday, Dec. 18 to visit with babies and their families in the NICU at Aurora Sinai Medical Center in downtown Milwaukee.

A news release said the tiny arrivals are the perfect gifts for their families, but they are not ready yet to head home to celebrate.
