Well after spending about 4 hours at the doctor today they decided it was fractured. There is a small fracture on the inside of his heel. And they believe he broke the growth plate in his ankle.
He thought he was really cool once he saw the cast on but after a few hours he realized that it can be very annoying. I guess that is what you get for jumping off the stairs.

Here he is at his jumping point. It actually made him nervous to be sitting there so hopefully he won't be jumping again anytime soon.

Do you think they ever learn?

So the other day Jones decided to jump off the side of our stairs from about 8 stairs up, and ended up hurting his ankle. Two days went by and he was still having a hard time walking on it and at times would just crawl. So we took him into the doctor that night for x-rays. As of right now they don't think it is broken but they said there was a lot of swelling around one of the bones. We were told that sometimes the break doesn't show up until after the third or fourth day when it starts to heal. So in a week if he is still walking funny we go back in for more x-rays. Anyway he has to wear an air cast for awhile. As soon as we got home from the doctor he jumped up onto the counter, (another place he likes to jump from). You would think that him hurting his ankle would keep him from going to high places but obviously not. Luckily I walked in just in time to catch him from jumping off. I guess kids are made to keep their parents on their feet.
