I read an article once that essentially said that early fireworks are great but you have to have something more than that to sustain long term and you have to be careful that you don't let those early fireworks blind you and cause you to overlook red flags.
That said having kids and their schedules is the best thing you can use to your advantage to slow things down. I would take it as blessing more than anything else early on. Carving out time can be challenging if your schedules are off sink but if you both are vested in working through it you can make time. I sometimes drop my girls off at a local gymnastics place for parents night out from 6 to 10 on Saturday nights. I obviously can't have a sleep over but it is still a chance to go out and connect.
