My dear friend Nichelle has helped started a non profit organization to help underdeveloped communities. I have put some of their information found on there website below. They need to raise $20,000 to create a school for the upcoming school year. If you can, check out the website and help them out. Buy a block,donate or purchase a necklace or t-shirt to help.
SCHAP stands for: sustainable, comprehensive, humanitarian, assistance & planning.
Mission Statement: "To bring sustainable solutions to humans living with extreme disadvantages in an effort to empower them with tools, resources, information & vision requisite for development & an increased quality of life, while also teaching the correct principles of sustainable & comprehensive humanitarian work to aspiring philanthropists."
It is a really great organization and I would love to see them be able to go back out there and build the school.
If you have any questions, you should email Nichelle here.
♥ Michelle

It's officially official
And the verdict is. . . . .. . . .. . . It's a GIRL!!!
Yes, little Chloe Darling Schmitz is to be the cutest little lady ever. Seriously, it's a scientific fact. The ultrasound gave Michelle and I great shots of her - and we'll have to put them on here soon to show you!
Now that we know what we're having, the excitement for this baby has just increased like 10 fold. Time to make this nursery come to life! Watch out Ikea and...other places too...here we come!!!
Ooh and other exciting news too! I felt her kick for the first time!!! I know Michelle gets to feel her all the time like inside the oven and everything, but I'm always missing out on all that action. This was a very monumental experience for me as a first time daddy. Thank goodness it was just my hand on her belly and not my face...shoot probably would have broke my nose.
Can't wait to meet her!!!
