So, Tristan had two loose teeth. One tooth already had the permanent tooth growing behind it. Tristan decided that he wanted Brian to pull the tooth that had the tooth growing behind it. So after some amount of struggle, Brian pulled the tooth. But... he pulled the wrong tooth! There was a lot of blood and Tristan then didn't want him to pull the other tooth that needed to come out.
This picture is from the first night of teeth pulling. 
He agreed to let Brian pull the other tooth the next night. Unfortunately, Brian only could get it "mostly" pulled out. It wasn't until the next night, as Brian was kissing Tristan good night that he reached in and twisted it the rest of the way out. Now he has a very cute tooth gap and Jack-O-Lantern smile. Losing teeth is a very big deal in kindergarten. Tristan was very excited to show everyone at school and get to mark 2 marks on his paper tooth on the wall.

Brian must have some strong hands to pull out a non-loose tooth with just his fingers.
Yep.. that's my man.
OK- it was a semi-loose tooth. It just wasn't the really loose tooth with the permanent tooth already growing in behind it.
I love that story. Tristan looks so grown up.
