Jake is obsessed with superheroes, Roman soldiers, pirates and all manner of people who do battle. Each day he dons his warrior uniform of hiking boots (no laces) and a cape (Libby's yellow and green polkadot apron) and searches out injustice.
He was on a particularly dangerous mission the other night that apparently required him to fly from the man chair (Erik's lounger) to the far end of the sofa. Had I been around I would have strongly recommended against this mission but maybe that's why superheroes don't take their moms along.
The take off went well, he caught some major air but the landing was sticky. It appears the first part of Jake to hit the arm of the sofa was his front teeth. Specifically the tooth he landed on and killed (requiring a root canal and cap) almost 2 years ago. Much bleeding ensued, a dental appointment was necessary, antibiotics are yummy and the supertooth will soon be making an early exit.
Here is the hero in his first interview after the incident. Notice the nice purple color of the gums, the superwatch he chose from the treasure chest at the dentist office and Grandmas, please, help us with the cape!!!

I'm loving that first fist-pound to the landing site. So manly...
The green and yellow polka dots are so becoming on him. Thanks for the update. I really needed that.
Just think how far he would have gone if he weren't wearing the boots! You would have had a hole in your drywall for sure. Try explaining that to the case workers. :) I think Jake needs a big cape with "SJ" on the back--Super Jake!
Seriously...lock him up! SO, so many accidents...
