Here's the official 34 weeks update...
No news is good news. =)

I'm pretty uncomfortable most of the time, but that's to be expected.  My abdominal muscles have never been in great shape, but now they are completely shot.  I'm using my back to hold this baby up most of the time which is exhausting.  BUT, I am blessed!  No sciatica as of yet, and no numbness in my limbs, and no swelling. 
I had my last apt with DrC this am.  Sad to leave his office, but excited that it means I'm that much closer to babytime.  Baby sounded good.  A little rowdy with a HR of 160+, but I had 2 cups of coffee right before the visit so, not surprizing.  I gained a pound and am still measuring a little big.  But, not worth moving the EDD.
Nesting hasn't really begun yet.  I'm cleaning, but that's more for the housefull I'll have at Thanksgiving than for baby.  I don't have any baby clothes to wash and fold since we got rid of everything under 18mos.  Crib never came down, so that's ready.  I feel like I should be 'prepping' but there's really nothing to do at this point.  I guess that's a good thing, more time to rest and get ready for the holidays.

Here's a pic from this am, taken by my little photographer Lil:
