Having an infant is boring! (self.parenting)

As of today, I have a 1 month old. She is amazing and I love her so much, but she's boring! Don't get me wrong, she's difficult and my wife and I haven't slept a good night in a month, but all she does is eat, sleep, and poop. There's basically no interaction.

I'm so looking forward to being able to laugh with her, play with her, and generally start teaching her the world.

How do you feel? What's your favorite stage of child development?

being a parent gave me great insight into hamsters

Right... wait, what?

"don't put things in the cat"

What?!

I've heard of "don't microwave the cat", but that's supposed to be for much older kids.

Talking about microwaves, do have her put an egg in the microwave. If she's got any curiosity, she'll try stuff on her own... better to learn some consequences in a controlled setting.
