Today has gotta be the most memorable day ever!!! It may not be a huge deal to many people but to us it is!

Our baby girl kicked daddy! Haha Well Lisiate felt our baby girl kick!!! I wish I video taped his expression/reaction because it was so darn cute!! When he does his high pitched voice of amazement! Especially when his eyes gets watery!!! How awesome is that!! A true man right there!! Lol :)

Our baby girl is for sure gonna be a daddy's little girl!! I just know it!!! Every time I get mad at him or when he stresses me out, she would always give me a hard time!!! I'm like waaaah??? So not fair!! Lol My hubby loves to rub it in my face!! But oh well, I'm so grateful for our baby girl and her daddy! :)

But like I said! Today was a memorable day for our little family! Hehe!! We can't wait to meet our baby girl!! 20 weeks and 2 more days to go!!! :)

Baby on the Way!! :)

January 6 was the day we found out that I was pregnant! I was a few days late, but I wanted to wait a few days to be sure because in the past I would get my hopes up and cry after! :( So on Jan 5th, my hubby and I were chilling and talking, and I told him "I think I'm pregnant...." He had a smile and said "that would be amazing if you are!" And we left it at that. The next day we went to sacrament and stopped by my in law's house to chill for a bit. We left cuz we wanted to take a nap. So we left, took our nap and I asked and begged my hubby if we could go buy a pregnancy test. He didn't want to cuz we've been through it already and didn't want to get disappointed, but we did anyways and went to his mom's and and chilled with everyone. I was waiting till I had to use the bathroom of course haha then I took the test! Haha I waited a few seconds cuz the test was pretty fast! And it said I was pregnant!!!!! I was seriously jumping for joy in the bathroom! Haha I took a deep breath, walked to the hallway and called Siate, cuz he was playing FIFA with his brother and cousins. He noticed the urgency and knew i took the test and ACTUALLY paused the game!! Haha took him to the bathroom and showed him the test! He couldn't believe it!! He won't admit it but I know! He CRIED! his silent cry though.. I kept pushing him to call his mom to come to the bathroom, and of course he couldn't.. He had to man up first! Haha so when he finally calmed down, haha, he went to call his mom and told her that I needed her. She came a few moments later and I showed her!!! Tears of joy came down! Yup she was the first to know after I told my husband! :) so she walked back to the living room while I prepared myself to tell the entire family! Haha then out of no where! Lina runs out her room and screams, "so it's true! You're pregnant! Congrats!!!" And gives me a huge hug! She nearly knocked me down with all her excitement!! Haha the. I finally made my way to the living room and showed my stick to everyone! Haha and announced that I was pregnant!! Haha it was perfect!! My hubby's entire family was there! Wouldn't have wanted shared it with anyone else! Then I called my mom, my sister, and my best friends!! Then told everyone else!!! It was wonderful!!!! Love my family and so grateful for them! :)

The next day, I had to take another test just to make sure and YUP!! I sooooo was!!! Haha I called and set an appointment right away and was told my due day is September 13, 2013 :) when we went and got our ultrasound we were so excited! We heard our baby's heartbeat and just couldn't believe it!!! We are so happy!!!

I was only about a month and a few days and morning sickness struck! Haha oh Emm!!! My morning sickness was beyond unbelievable!!! I've never met anyone who was as sick as me yet! But I would always have to remind myself that in the end it will be all worth it! But I just wasn't strong and was such a baby!! Haha I went into the ER 3 times! The third time was when I finally realized that I needed more help! So I called my mom that night and she flew to Arizona the next day!!! I was so weak and couldn't eat anything! But with her help I feel like I can fight a dragon! Lmbo! I can eat 3 meals and snack now!! My apartment hasn't been this clean since we moved in! Haha pregnancy is amazing!! Haha I was a hard 4 months I tell ya!!! Haha

I'm 18 weeks and 4 days now and on April 15, 2013 we found out what we were having!!! 90% of our friends and family said it would be a BOY and 10% said it would be a GIRL!! So we thought it would be funny if we tricked our family! So we met up at the restaurant and I had a bag that would reveal our baby's gender! I gave the bag to my mother in law to open and she gave it to her daughter Tio! :) so Tio opened the bag and in inside was blue tissue paper, candy that said ITS A BOY!, and a card that read Oh boy! Haha so I knew as soon as see saw everything she assumed baby was a boy. She opened the card and it read, "GOTCHA, YOU'RE HAVING A GRANDDAUGHTER THAT YOU'LL HAVE THE PRIVILEGE OF NAMING!"Everyone was so shocked! Haha and really thought we were having a boy! Their reactions were priceless! Haha especially my brother in law's reaction! He was so bummed!!! Hahaha

My husband and I are so excited!!! Every time I think about our baby girl I can't help but tear up! I really wanted to have a girl but thought I was having a boy! Man we were so wrong! Haha

So grateful for our Heavenly Father! For blessing us with a beautiful girl! Can't wait to me our little girl!!! She'll for sure be daddy's little girl!!!

I miss my Family :/


 Life so far in Arizona has been great! I have my ups and downs but with the help of my Husband, I've been better. It gets hard at times though. There's times when I miss my family like crazy!!! I sometimes wish we weren't living in Arizona, but back in Utah. When you feel like you have no one else to turn to but your Husband is koo and all, but I miss my sisters! The ones I vent to all the time and go with everywhere when Siate was busy. I hate having those emotional nights when he's away at work cause I start missing all my family. I miss seeing everyone everyday! It gets hard at times when there's no family from my side here. I try to get out and hang out with others, but it's just not the same, but I still have fun. I'm still happy I moved to Arizona cuz Where ever he was I was happy to be with him! :) It just gets hard at times not having my family here. But I will stay strong for my husband! :)

 I'm also trying to find a job, and it's getting kinda depressing! But my hubby encourages me everyday that it will come. I continue to have faith but it just gets hard. I'm starting to hate staying home all the time! haha Not having a Job right now makes me Hate Arizona! yeah it's not the weather, its the whole job situation! haha

 I'm so happy that I have Lisiate in my life though. He's the humble one in our relationship. I'm the complainer. haha. When I'm low, he's always there. because of the love that we have, we hardly argue! it's amazing! haha but I still think about my family and how much I wish we lived in Utah, but My hubby has work here and loves Arizona. So wherever he is, and as long as I'm with him, I will be happy :) I'm so grateful for him!!! So in LOVE <3

MY LIFE AND LOVES :)

 My name is Christina Leilani Afu Na'a Feinga. I was born on June 25, 1992 in Long Beach, California. I was raised by amazing parents who loved me unconditionally. Grew up with 8 brothers and 1 sister. You would think since I was raised with that much "bodyguards" that I would be such a tomboy. "LOOK AT ME NOW" haha. Far from it. Because of my family they've helped me become such a strong woman in so many ways. I've become the strong but the most sensitive child in my family. Being the 9th child and the youngest girl, it kinda had that effect on me.

 When I was 15 I decided to move to Laie, Hawaii to attend Kahuku High with my cousins. It was hard for my family to let me go, especially for me. I am so grateful I went though. I've been through so much. I seriously dont know how I made it 4 years out there. There was ups and downs but I found my way. KAHUKU HIGH wasn't so welcoming on my first day. Well from the first day of school till GRADUATION. I wasn't sure what was wrong, people looked at me like I wasn't cool enough to be a "RED RAIDER." But I am a proud RED RAIDER! I learned to love the school. Some people were such loving people. They helped me  feel comfortable around so much Polynesians. Moving to Hawaii has helped me become so much closer to the church, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I have almost given up with the Church so many times, because I always felt that He was letting people hurt me, talk about me, bring me down so low, that every time i tried to get back up I was always knocked back down. But I didn't give up. He was ALWAYS listening. With Prayer and Faith I always found my way to a "HAPPY PLACE" and to wonderful people. 


 My BESTFRIEND Tirza, who I met in 9th grade, has helped me so much! I was going to move back to California so many times, but I stayed for her. She helped me overcome the hate people always showed me and helped me realize that there are people who care. I am truly grateful for her! Deciding to stay brought me closer to many many friends and loved ones. 


 I am so grateful for my Uncle & Aunt for taking me in. For always being a great example to me. I've gotten closer to their daughters and son. Gain more family members from my Aunt's family. They made my last year in High School so amazing. I was a really sensitive in Hawaii. But I always had someone there to comfort me, my family, my new family, my friends. I worked at PhotoPoly in PCC my senior year, and so far it has been my favorite job! There's happy people everywhere in good old LAIE! I miss that place so much!!! I Graduated from Kahuku High on May 2010 and moved to West Valley, Utah with my parents. 


 It was so weird living in Utah, cause I didn't know ANYONE!I attended a few dances with my cousins and met more family. I began to love Utah. LOL My cousin, Eleanor, invited me to a ward camp in August, SJ 11th Ward, and it was such an amazing experience! Ever since then, I started attending that ward. The people there were so welcoming and so happy. haha. I enjoyed the YSA LIFE! It was a BLAST. I really really love that ward cause that's where I met such an amazing guy, Lisiate Talanoa Feinga! I seen him blessing the sacrament and told my friends that he was gonna be my "EYE CANDY."


 He became my EYE CANDY on December 12, 2010. Ever since he walked into my life, I've become a better person, just for HIM! :) We've dated for 9 months till he asked me to marry him on September 12, 2011 in Miami, on Miami Beach. One of the best days in my life! Another great day was the day I got Endowed. November 17, 2011 in the Jordan River Temple. It was an amazing experience!!! A few days after my Fiance moved to Mesa, AZ to start preparing for our future. It was the hardest thing ever! I cried for almost 2 weeks. It was a crazy experience and I hope that NEVER happens again! haha.


 Lisiate and I chose to get married in the Mesa, AZ temple on March 24, 2012, with a little help from our families. haha. Planning for a wedding was pretty crazy, well for me, cause I was living in West Valley, UT. It's kinda hard to plan your wedding in a different state. But I think I was just stressing for nothing. I'm  such a drama queen. haha. When March actually came, it started to hit me, that I was really getting married!!! I had my wedding dress, bridesmaid dresses & shoes. I think I was set. NOT REALLY. I felt like I had nothing done that month. It was pretty crazy! The most Stressing but yet Humbling experience EVER! I moved to Mesa, AZ on March 18, 2012. A week before the wedding. It was hard leaving Utah, but my heart lived in AZ. When I got here, it was pretty awesome but weird. I loved it though! I got to see my babe everyday!


 March 22, 2012 My Love and I got our Marriage License. It was pretty crazy, there was so much people. They were all there for Lisiate and I! Tongan ways are pretty awesome. We were just signing papers to get our License and to see everyone there just for that was amazing! We then realize that, that was only the beginning! A step closer to being able to married in the Mesa Temple! After we hate a get together to celebrate our day at Lisiate's parents home. The Vilo Vilo Chicken and Fry Bread was ON POINT! We were truly grateful for our family and how much they supported us!


 March 23, 2012 was the day of our Wedding Dance. It was so much fun! We were center of attention, which was so weird! But I have to say, we loved it! We danced all night! And my Honaaayy let me wear heels! (He hates when I'm taller than him. haha) I regretted wearing heels though. OH EMM, my feet was hurting, but I think I played it off pretty well. haha. Anyways It was so packed at our dance! So many people came from out of town came for US! We are truly blessed with amazing family and friends! I really enjoyed this night. To watch my brother and sisters perform a number for us brought me to tears. I love my family! I was so emotional that day. Giving everyone a preview of how I was gonna be the next day! :) We ended the night with joy and laugher! 


March 24, 2012, THE DAY! I woke up at 6 am, cried while getting ready cause Hair didnt go as planned and makeup either! Had to do it at the temple. haha. OH MAN! My day started off really rough! But my sister in law Katie and my Mom helped me out! I arrived to the temple at 9 am to meet up with my LOVE! We signed some papers, then we were off! We got sealed and married for all time and eternity and it was the greatest and spiritual feeling ever!!! To see how much people supported us with our decision was incredible! No words can express how much joy I felt that day. To actually tell the world that I am MARRIED!!! It was a day to remember! 


I am truely grateful for my HUSBAND, my family, His family, and my friends for everything they have done for me! I am Now a BIG GIRL. haha Living in Gilbert, AZ with my Husband is AWESOME! Being married is freaking GREAT!!! I LOVE HIM SO MUCH! My Dreams have came true!
