Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck just celebrated their first Christmas as a married couple and they made sure it was everything they'd dreamed of. 

The star revealed in OntheJLo.com that she and Ben had double the fun this year with their offspring and she explained why she called it a Hummingbird Christmas.

She continued: "I wrote a song called Hummingbird for my new album, This Is Me … Now. To me, hummingbirds are messengers of love. They’re very agile—can fly forward, backward, and up and down. They’re also the fastest bird but they always have time to stop, eat something sweet and smell the roses. I identify with them, but more than anything, whenever I see one, I feel like it’s a sign from God that everything is going to be OK."

We have blended families, doubled the people, doubled the fun, doubled the love, doubled the presents and tripled the chaos!!
