Something you use everyday.
I'm thinking something obvious like this laptop, my cell phone, my toothbrush. Um... the refrigerator, the couch or my own eyeballs? But, I'll go with this...
Not the baby, the Boppy. Since he was born, the Boppy has been something we've used every day. Seriously, new moms... if you don't have one, get one! Best baby accessory ever. Even if it's not for nursing/feedings, Callen has always loved playing on, laying on, loving on his Boppy... so, definitely worth it! Of course, we got this one when Preston was born, so it has been through a lot! In fact, a few months ago I had to repair the inside seam because it was coming apart and stuffing was starting to come out. This is one well-loved, well-used Boppy! Every day!
I haven't really started weaning Callen yet. I mean, we've cut back on a few feedings because he is getting a lot of table food and snacks and so he doesn't need/want me as often. But, he still nurses at least four times a day, and sometimes once or twice during the nite too. I'm ready to wean, but I'm being lazy I guess. But now that we've finally got Callen's bedtime routine and sleeping figured out (for the most part), it's probably a good time. Sigh. I guess that means he really is becoming less of a baby and more of a toddler! Sad face.

I don't think you have to rush with weaning. Ruthie is 15 months and still going strong with nursing. Here in Canada they recommend nursing until age 2. I have a few friends in my little hippie bubble who nursed their kids until age 4 or 5, so that seems pretty normal to me (although I think age 2 is enough for me, personally). But obviously, do what you think is best for you family. =)
Love the boppy! I can't nurse without it. I wish they made an inflatable boppy that I could take on our trip when we go to Portugal.
