OOPSES and WET DOG SMELL

OOPS! I created a post yesterday and went on and on about how my son smells like a wet dog, but I accidentally created a second blog, and have to fix it. Hopefully this will post to the correct page!
Well, yes, it's true. Justin smells like a wet dog. Our neighbors' dog, Ginger, came to live in our back yard on Thursday. Unfortunately for her, it has been raining quite a bit since then, and she is mostly wet or damp. It dried out long enough on Saturday to give her a bath and her flee medicine. Justin just loves this dog and follows her around the yard all day. On Saturday, he smelled so strongly of wet dog that I could smell him from 5 feet away. He bathed. But, shortly after he awakened Sunday morning, he was in the yard, and smelling of wet dog again. He went to church smelling like a wet dog. Last night, he went to bed. No bath. Wet dog. Today is sheets day, so I just didn't bathe him last night. The mystery of it is this: the girls are playing with the dog, too, but they don't even have a faint smell of wet dog on them! What is it with boys and smells? Are they odor sponges?

I have to totally agree with boys attracting strange smells. Even after you bathe them, they seem to get into smelly things that you are not sure why. Love your blog and pictures. I am sure Cristian and julian will love seeing pictures of your family!!!!
