The other day I noticed that LITTLE smelled especially good. I mean REALLLLLLLYYYYYYY good- almost yummy... Which was kinda odd because it was the end of the day- and he hadn't had his bath yet. But boy did he smell delicious. Then I noticed that it was because he had chocolate frosting in his hair. I mean- why wouldn't you have frosting in your hair, right? Well- that's a good question that he can't answer just yet. Believe me- I asked and he said "No." Which is his go-to answer for everything right now.
Then there is the just out of the bath smell. I was holding BIG tonight after his bath just sniffing his sweet wet little head. He must think I'm a bit koo-koo. And he's right- but he just smelled so fresh and clean. Not that he normally stinks or anything- but he just smelled soooooo good. I know this phase won't last forever. I remember when my friend's son outgrew the good smelling age and started to wear that silly manly teenager deodorant/cologne stuff. Good grief that's some stinky stuff.

Right now I'm fine with my boys smelling. Because it's usually a good smell. (There are times when they come in from outside smelling like little hound dog puppies- but that isn't the norm.) They usually smell like sweet babies. I know I will never forget the smell because it's burned into my nose from all the baths I've administered.
I may just keep a bottle of baby aveeno shampoo on hand just in case- so I can always remember.
