Kailyn and her man have been nonstop busy preparing for their fabulous reception, so they kept their anniversary low-key. Just a simple dinner and one simply adorable surprise! No, we're not talking about traditional flowers or some heart-shaped chocolates. Instead, Kailyn packed a sweet note written on a napkin in Javi's lunch bag, which naturally he shared with fans!

"Unpacking my lunch and I find this! Thank you Kailyn Rae," Javi posted to Instagram along with the note, which reads 'Love you with my whole heart.'"




Please give us a moment to happy-cry and inflate our blow-up boyfriend. These two are the cutest couple ever! We can't wait for them to re-tie-the-knot later this month and get a jumpstart on their happily ever after … a beautiful life full of Scentsy candles and camouflage.

What's the cutest surprise you've ever planned for your man (or lady!)? Hit the comments and share!

Teen Birth Rates Cut By More Than Half Since 1991, Experts Say 'Teen Mom' Helped





The teen birth rates in the United States reached their peak in 1991, but a new study shows that over 20 years later, in 2012, the number of new teen mothers had been cut in half. And while there are many things that have contributed to this huge decline in teen pregnancies, some experts are saying that MTV franchises "16 And Pregnant" and "Teen Mom" have played a part in bringing that number down.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there were 61.8 births per 1,000 women aged 15 to 19 in 1991, and in 2012, there were only 29.4. Further, the rates are down in every American state and across all racial and ethnic groups.
Bill Albert, the Chief Program Officer of the National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy, told the Christian Science Monitor the shifts are connected to variables like more readily available contraceptives (IUDs, in particular), tough economic climates -- which can dissuade young people from getting pregnant intentionally -- and even the visibility of Maci Bookout, Katie Yeager and other young mothers featured on "16 And Pregnant" and "Teen Mom."
"It’s off-the-charts extraordinary progress," Albert told the Monitor of the CDC's findings. "And the pace of progress is accelerating."

Jenelle Evans Rocks a Gold Bedazzled Monokini

Do you ever find yourself thinking, "Why wander the tepid water parks of North Carolina in a regular bikini when I could be trolling around in a monokini?" Well, Teen Mom 2's Jenelle Evans is right there with you.

Hot off the heels of boyfriend Nathan Griffith’s arrest for a DUI on September 7, Jenelle and her man took her son, Jace, swimming at Myrtle Waves!

Jenelle Evans Rocks a Gold Bedazzled Monokini
 
Of course, most moms would wear a one-piece swimsuit on an outing with their child, but Jenelle isn't most moms. She decided to mix things up with a bedazzled monokini, and there's no denying that girlfriend looked muy caliente.  First of all, this kiddo looks adorable –– but enough about him… get a load of Jenelle's smokin' hot bod! Clearly, those gym sessions with Nathan are doing wonders for her figure.

Sure, we're slightly blind from the gold sequins on Jenelle's daring suit, but whatever. She's basically a beach goddess. And when we say "beach goddess," we mean "vaguely-‘80s-feeling water park goddess," naturally.

What do you think of Jenelle's glittery monokini? Is it way too scandalous for a childrens' park, or does she look totally stylish? Hit the comments and let us know what you think!


Check out this photo of Jenelle cheesin' for the camera with Jace!

Leah Messer's Daughter Aliannah Is Starting Pre-K This Fall!

It seems like just yesterday that Teen Mom 2's Leah Messer was popping out two adorable babies on 16 and Pregnant, and we can hardly believe that her daughters are almost four years old! Aliannah Hope and Aleeah Grace have grown leaps and bounds since they made their television debut, but their childhood hasn't been without struggle.

After years of tests and countless doctors appointments, Ali was diagnosed with a rare developmental disorder. Leah prefers not to reveal too much about her daughter's condition, but recent melancholy tweets from this West Virginia mountain momma had fans worried that she'd received bad news about her little lady.

Luckily, this doesn't seem to be the case. Ali's about to start Pre-K, which means she's healthy enough to be on her own during the day! Although, Leah is most definitely a ball of nerves about Ali's big milestone….

"Nervous about my little girl starting school next week!" she tweeted on September 7. "I know she'll do so great! Mommy love you Ali Girl! #Pre-K here Ali comes!"

We couldn't of said it better ourselves! Ali is going to rock Pre-K's socks off, and here's to hoping she has a fabulous year full of straight As!
