I don't think it's bad for you to ask. You've been there 3 months, which is a typical probation period. You're asking in advance, giving them plenty of time to work it in the schedule. And work isn't the only thing in life; they have to understand that part of why people work is so they can enjoy the fruits of their labor. It's okay to ask for time off. Do it far enough in advance that they can manage it, and it's not like you're asking for 3 weeks in a row off, it's the holidays and people do ask for time off.

It's okay. Go ahead and put the request in.
