D-Day + 4...but counting down the hours

well, folks, no little lofton yet. we go in tomorrow morning at 9 to texarkana to induce, so we'll let you know when she makes her grand entrance. i (cindy) am doing well tonight. still hoping i'll go into labor on my own, but i've had such a peace all week about His timing in all of it. we've prayed a lot over the details of all this, and He told me a few days ago that He's heard every prayer & is working to answer them in His time & in His ways, so my job is to trust Him & be patient. it has been such a good pregnancy, at least the second half has. (from an attitude standpoint) i have no complaints physically, either. i haven't felt 'heavy' or ugly or miserable or anything like that. plus i've gotten more massages from my husband than ever before (big perk), and i've had the best excuse to sleep late, take naps and eat tacos carne asada as much as i want! it has been such a good process for me to go through, as i've had to come face to face with lies i'd been believing from the enemy. my heart is anchored in so much more Truth now than it was 9 months ago, praise God. i am so confident in the fact that He will give me ALL i need for life & godliness, as He promises, and that includes this new journey of being a parent. one day at a time. we have nothing to fear when we really know who our Father is. nothing at all. His peace came over me today like a warm blanket, so thank you to all who have been praying for that. it made a difference. You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, for he trusts in you...isaiah 26:3 i love that verse. anyway, time now to rest. thank you for all the support, phone calls, prayers, gifts & encouragement! we are so grateful to have such awesome friends & family. we'll let you know as soon as she's here. :-) buenas noches!

here are a few pics of the nursery for those who care. it's not quite done, but you can get the idea. i love it. the walls are peach, of course (but you can't tell from these pics) my mom made the bedding, jason's mom & i made the curtains (which will be roman shades once we find brown ribbon), all the furniture was either consignment, given to us, or made for us. (jason's dad built the bookcase)
