Ello’ to all of you who’ve stopped by. Please allow ourselves to introduce… ourselves.

We’re the Lutz’s. But before we get into all of the “about us” schtuff, first it might make sense to explain to you why the name of our blog is “Lutz Pod”. The simplest answer for that is that I (matt) have a few tattoos (insert my mother’s sigh of disgust here). And my wife, God love her, likes to make fun of me for them. One just happens to be of an artist rendering of a Killer Whale

What can you say about such a spirited little girl? From day 1, we knew our world was about to be rocked! She brought more excitement and energy into our house than we knew was possible. She makes us laugh on a consistent basis and has a personality 10 times her size. When Lily comes into the room, you know it! She’s our firstborn, our little ham, and the love of our lives. Just have a looksy at her photo gallery and I’m pretty sure you’ll see why. Enjoy!

So the Day finally came when Declan was born – he was a punctual little fella arriving only 1 day after his due date, unlike his sister who was was not blessed with the virtue of patience and was born 2 weeks early (Lily is still working on her patience).

Born at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Santa Ana, California on 4.23.11 @ 4:14am – weighing in at 7.14 lbs & measuring 21″ long. Obviously getting his good height my side of the family
