Licky Licky

Hi everyone, well our 2 1/2 male brindle (crosby) is getting along so well with our 5month old male flashy fawn (coda) its great, they play all day long but coda doesnt want anything to do with crosbys squeeker balls, he would rather chase and chew crosbys hind legs....
Anyways when quiet time rolls around and you go to pat coda all he wants to do is lick, I mean his tounge and tail are going a million miles an hour, you cant go near him without getting a wet one. Crosby was never like this although he will give kisses this is a huge diiference between a kiss and a lick, its almost like coda has a spoonful of peanut butter on the roof of his mouth that he is trying to get rid of.
Will this pass with time or do we get used to it?
I have tons of pics but cant figure out how to post.
