You mean their first son Bill, right? :)  As I mentioned in an earlier
post, it's not uncommon for a wealthy and/or "high class" man to wait for
quite some time before marrying and having children.  He spends his time
sowing his wild oats and then getting his life and business established
before finally marrying to carry on the family name.  This is the type of
man I see Lucius as, with Narcissa as a younger trophy wife finally
married in order to bear the precious heir.

Or Lucius was really busy being a Death Eater, and only married a bit
later when Voldemort told him it was time to ensure the second generation
of his followers. ;)
