<human>: Can you give me a shortened version of the text?

For thanksgiving I am going to see my sister and brother in law and celebrate thanksgiving there. I just became an uncle (for the first time) a few weeks ago and this will be my first time seeing the baby. I am really good with kids in elementary school from like 3rd grade to high school to my age (I'm 23). But I have never had much experience with babies and don't really know how to treat/act around them.

I'm nervous about visiting my nephew for the first time and I don't want to be the "boring uncle". I don't know if this is the right thing to say but if I treat the baby like my cat is that okay? I'm really good around cats. And they love me. Are babies at all similar?

To go a little bit further. In general I am just awkward around babies (I actually work at a place where there is infant daycare and I am right near them, I just have no clue how to act). I have never really been around them for extended amounts of time. I am actually the baby in my family so I never was around one as a kid either.

any advice/suggestions would be really appreciated.
<bot>: I am awkward around babies. How can I be awesome around babies? I'm a 23 year old male. Should I treat my nephew like my cat?
