Though he&#8217;s too young for candy, he&#8217;s definitely up for sporting a cute penguin costume and being strolled around town by his parents. All the shops along our neighborhood&#8217;s main street take part in a big Halloween trick-or-treat event, so we got Finn suited up and ready to show off. Margot strolled him down to Lincoln Ave., where they were met by at least a few thousand parents and their costumed children.<br \/>\nThe orange Bob made a perfect penguinmobile, and they wove their way through sidewalks choked with pirates, Elmos, ladybugs, princesses, monkeys, lions, tigers, and bears&#8211;oh my! (There were even a couple of Dorothys and Scarecrows.) Our Finny was the only penguin on parade and got many compliments on his soft, fuzzy outfit. Margot and Finn ran into our friends Mira &#038; Anja (dressed as a strawberry), and Heidi &#038; Liam (a sock monkey).  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jnack.com\/finnegan\/first_halloween\/\">Here are some pics<\/a> (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.jnack.com\/finnegan\/first_halloween_html\/\">HTML<\/a>) from the day.<br \/>\nSoon we&#8217;ll be facing the onslaught of trick-or-treaters that descend on our neighborhood every year.
