Well, D-Day has arrived. Deann began having contractions yesterday afternoon so we made our way down to Columbia after dinner. After being observed for a couple hours upon arrival we thought we'd be sent home since it didn't seem like much was happening. However, the doctor checked one last time and found that she had dilated just enough to warrant keeping her overnight. (Answer to prayer #1)
We were able to rest decently in the hospital room, Deann still having a few mild contractions throughout the night. After checking her early this morning the doctor found that she had not progressed any and talked like we would be sent home. However, after the doctors conferred together they decided to keep her and induce labor today. (Answer to prayer #2)
Now (9:10AM) contractions are regular and we are just waiting for Allison to arrive. I'll try to keep everyone updated.
Thank you all for your prayers. It is such a blessing to be able to rest in the arms of the Lord in every detail!

You guys are such veterans! Taking pictures right before delivery!
No one should expect ANYTHING like this at Thoughts On The Way - except maybe an update to the saints that I DID regain consciousness with help from Rachel.
