{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}They might be too tiny to trick-or-treat this year, but these NICU babies are celebrating Halloween in style.
While spending the Halloween holiday in the NICU may be stressful for families, nurses at the Broward Health Medical Center in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, conjured up some extra special Halloween magic by hosting a costume contest for the little ones and their families.
Among the costumes were a pumpkin, Harry Potter, a mermaid, a tiny frog in a blue truck, Pac-Man, and even grape jelly.
