During my pregnancy, I was very sensitive to smells. Food, body odour, almost any scent grossed me out. Even now, my nose is more sensitive than Chris - or maybe he's just noseblind.
Definition of Noseblind: The gradual acclimation to the smells of one’s home, car, or belongings, in which the affected does not notice them (even though their family members or guests do).
Many times I'll come home with Hannah, and Chris will already be back from work. I will smell dinner, or worst case scenario, Booyah's letterbox...he may have sensitive smell, but he's one cat who is definitely noseblind! I crack out the Febreze Air Effects Meadows & Rain to make our home breathable for all.

Febreze surveyed Canadians and here’s the smelly truth:
- 93% of Canadians would like to know if their homes smelled bad. Wouldn’t you?!
- But we’re just too nice: only 63% of us would tell someone if their home smells
- 48% of Canadians believe that a smelly home is the sign of a dirty, lazy homeowner. Ouch!!
- So, what are the worst home smells? Garbage, pet odours and smoking smells
- Back on the dating scene or have a teen who’s trying to impress? For 61% of Canadians, the smell of their date’s home is a deal breaker, and 28% would make a quick exit if their date’s home smelled.
- Excuses, excuses: 36% of Canadians have either avoided visiting friends with smelly abodes or make it a quick stop.
- Doorbell or warning bell? 37% of Canadians panic when unexpected guests drop by. Is your home always ready for guests?
- 45% of us dread visiting homes with pets because of the smell. Don’t let Fido take the blame, take action!
- Pull over, driver! 58% of people have wanted to get out of someone’s car because of its smell
