Jenelle Evans Wedding Invitiations: See Them Here!
First comes love?
Then comes marriage?
Then comes a baby in a baby carriage?
Not exactly. Not in this exact order for Jenelle Evans.
The veteran Teen Mom star checked off the latter item on the list above before all others, as she’s the parent of three young kids: Jace, Kaiser and Ensley.
But she’s all set to make her way back up the rundown in less than two months’ time.
Indeed, Jenelle is getting married to David Eason! On September 23!
And you know what that means, right? No pigs are not flying past your window at the moment.
But with just a few weeks until her big day arrives, Evans has gone ahead and sent off invitations to her wedding guests, including good pal Tori Rhyne.
Tori, in turn, has shared a picture of the invitation on Instagram, writing as a caption along with it:
Finally got my official wedding invitation in the mail today to my best friend @j_evans1219 wedding.
I had to take a picture because the card is soooo pretty and I’m so happy for her and David. Congrats babygirl, I can’t wait to see the day you finally get married and live a happy ever after kind of life.
You deserve it! Love you!
Eason popped his question back in February, not long after Jenelle gave birth to their baby daughter, Ensley Jolie, on January 24, 2017.
He asked for Jenelle’s hand in holy matrimony while on a hike, dropping to one knee with MTV cameras (of course) present and gifting the love of his life with a pear-shaped diamond ring.
“The engagement was definitely one for the books! His idea was so original and he left me speechless,” Evans has said, adding earlier this year:
“He told me to look at the roses on the ground and asked if I thought they were pretty. Of course, I agreed!
“Then he said, ‘These are for you!’ and I said ‘no!"”
Not really, that is. Jenelle said yes.
“As I looked over his shoulder, MTV was there behind the trees and I had no idea they were going to be there,” Jenelle explained.
“He asked me to marry him and I said yes!
“We were both in tears.”
Along with her new journey of love, Evans says she’s embarking on a fresh start to life.
She recounts in her new memoir how she nearly died of a heroin overdose and told Us Weekly in a new interview that she’ll never do this hard drug again.
“I quit cold turkey,” Jenelle claims of this experience. “I just went to my mom’s house and rode it out. I started to go through withdrawals for the first time…
“You can die from trying to withdraw on your own. I luckily did it safely.”
Good for Evans, right?!?
No matter what you may think of this Teen Mom, she does have children.
Let’s hope she remains off drugs and ends up happily married to Eason for many decades to come.

Kailyn Lowry: PRAYING Baby Daddy Chris Lopez Will Be a Dad to Their Baby!
The road from Teen Mom to living happily ever after isn’t exactly easy. No matter how much you love your children, life is usually full of heartbreak and disappointments. Having started off as a teenage mother only makes life’s challenges even tougher.
At 25, Kailyn Lowry is no longer a teen, but she’s definitly a mom — with another baby on the way. Now, Kailyn’s even talking about her pregnancy. The trouble is that her baby daddy, Chris Lopez, has expressed zero interest in being a father in any sense beyond biology.
And … it doesn’t sound like Kailyn’s taking it well. It’s actually worse than we thought.
So, Chris Lopez refuses to be on Teen Mom or be a dad at all.
HollywoodLife‘s source says that Kailyn isn’t willing to accept “no” for an answer from Chris Lopez.
“Kailyn is praying that Chris has a change of heart and he will want to be a dad after the baby is born.”
Oh no.
That sounds like denial.
She can pray all that she likes, but she should be accepting that Chris isn’t going to be in their lives — and making plans accordingly.
“Kailyn’s own father upped and left when she was really young, so she knows what it’s like to grow up without a dad, and she really doesn’t want the same for her baby.”
Different people handle that in different ways, but clearly it had a huge impact on Kailyn.
“Chris has said he wants nothing to do with Kailyn or his child, but she’s hoping against hope that he will change his mind once he sees photos of the baby.”
If she’s counting on that little tug of emotional manipulation and oxytocin to change his mind, she’s not going to like the results.
Anyone who starts off by peacing out only to agree to see their child after seeing a photo isn’t likely to stick around out of a sense of parental duty.
Babies change your life, but they don’t change who you are.
“Kailyn doesn’t have any desire to get back with Chris romantically, but she thinks it’s really important for their child to have him in his or her life.”
It’s … kind of important? We’ll get to that.
“The thought of her baby having to grow up without a father to guide and love him or her absolutely breaks Kailyn’s heart”
Kailyn needs to understand that different home environments impact different children in different ways.
Now, Kailyn’s already a mom, to Isaac and to Lincoln.
Jo and Javi, the respective fathers of the boys, are there for their sons even though they have their own lives independent of Kailyn’s.
That’s, you know, following your basic responsibilities.
But we need to talk about Kailyn’s preoccupation that growing up without a father will somehow damage her baby.
Because she’s wrong.
Don’t get us wrong, growing up with two parents is at least potentially better than growing up with just one.
Growing up with eight parents is even better, but that’s usually only an option for those polyamorous relationships where they buy a house together and raise any children together.
Or maybe on, like, a commune.
But single parents can do amazing jobs of raising children, and those children can grow up happy and productive.
Kailyn clearly developed some issues (like, a number of them) as a result of growing up without her father.
(Some of those issues led her to where she is now in life, having started as a teenage mother and now having three babies with three fathers)
But she needs to understand that her experience isn’t universal.
Some people grow up and thrive with a single parent.
It’s hard on the parent, absolutely — fewer people to share the work and emotional labor.
But if Kailyn’s concern is that her child will grow up with the same complex that she did, she doesn’t need to worry.
In fact, plenty of kids raised by single parents are better off without the other.
Maybe Chris Lopez would be a good father if he were willing to be one.
But usually, if somebody’s shirking their responsibilities from the get-go, they’re not going to suddenly transform into an all-around good person.
Kailyn can work to create an environment for this baby that will be healthy and nurturing.
It might be a little confusing, since the baby’s brothers will both have dads, but Kailyn can absolutely find a way to explain that to her youngest child that will be delicate and affirming.
But … Chris has to pay child support, right?
