Christmas was wonderful. Perfect. We got to spend time with both sides of the family and still managed to find time to ourselves too. Spending our first Christmas together as a married couple exceeded any and all expectations I might have had.
I also forgot to mention in my last post that I had a birthday last month. I turned the big 2-2 on December 11! Joel and I spent the day together, and then we went to dinner with the entire family - my side and his - in the evening. It was pretty awesome.
We spent New Years in New York. The Twins threw a killer bash, of course! Everyone was there and I think we both had the best New Years ever. Joel isn't usually a drinker but I managed to persuade him to have a few beers. He definitely enjoyed himself. We spent New Years Day recuperating at the Twins' house, which is kinda difficult with that many kids running about but amusing nonetheless! Joel hasn't spent that much time in New York and had only seen the kids a few times. He kinda fell in love, particularly with Nate. I suspect it's just because he's the baby.
We got talking about babies and whatnot, as we sometimes do. Joel kinda surprised me when he told me that he'd like to start a family in five years or so. I gotta be honest, I was thinking more like ten years down the line. But the more I think about it, the less scary five sounds. Still, I think it's pretty safe to say that we wont be trying anytime soon!
