Holiday Craze or Holiday Laze?

I love the holidays!  I always have.  Maybe because I'm a Christmas baby, Christmas time is my favorite.  I love shopping for presents in general, but come Christmas time, I have always love love loved finding that "perfect" present for someone.  and Holiday Baking... oh how i love holiday baking.  Every year for at least the last 10 years I've made cookies boxes for Co-workers.  Boxes filled with at least 4 different types of cookies... if not more.

However, this year... I don't know what it is... maybe its having a newborn on my hands that seems to drain all my energy?  Whatever it is...  Present hunting seems more like a chore... and baking cookies... well, I can't seem to find enough time in the day to bake enough cookies.  And why can't i seem to decide on what kind of cookies to bake.  My list keeps changing and shrinking.  So, I think now, I might only do one kind of cookie...sad.  And my elaborate packaging idea...forget it! I think I might just throw them in boxes and call it good.

I hope this is just a phase... and one that passes by ... say tomorrow :)  I don't want my love of this holiday season to diminish.

Maybe a nap will help me snap out of this mindset!
