Where do I start?!?!?!? I even found ALOT of blogs I never published so I just posted them and no telling when they are from but hey must have needed to vent or just get my mind and heart emptied then like I do now.. Thank God I can xfer this blog to FACEBOOK where I am always updating.. HAHAHA..
Some of you are not friends with me on facebook so you are probably wondering what in the world happened...
Well Salem arrived at 35 wks and 6 days and spent 6 days in the NICU... Went to well baby first but started having breathing complications. Which was ok cause some of Samuel's Dr.s was doing rounds that week at MTMC.. Samuel was born at Centennial.. So having that said and done was one of my sweet prayers that some of Samuel"s dr.'s and nurses would be there doing rounds to meet Salem..
Salem Joseph Snyder was born December 5th, 2009 at 249pm.. 6.8lbs and 18 and 7/8 long.. he had hair and came out screaming.. SOmething I wanted to hear so bad.. I was in labor about 2 days off and on.. Really a week in my opinion but they called it braxton hicks.. what do they know really.. we know our bodies.. so when i would go in before Thursday Night they would always send me back home.. Well By Saturday my blood presure was like 140/104.. And keep ion mind they had me on Magnesium and staidol to try and stop contractions.. I HAte both of those.. Well I had pre-eclampsia and toxcemia.. (Please forgive me if I missspell anything) All I can say they next day when the dr. came to see me her words to me was God had His hands on yall.. We were minutes to seconds losing you and possibly him.. After all my surgeries obviously my uterus is RETARDED (< dr.s word for it) She was unable to deliver Salem but her partner did and she said my utuerus was like a helium ballon so full about to bust.. It was tissue thin.. So I am so thankful to be alive!! I have been trying to get my energy and strength back ever since.. At first when we came home I was on adrenaline and could not stop cleaning and organizing now that has all slacked off a bit but not totally.. I even said the other day I am getting worst than my mom.. They say you always end up like em.. Which is not a bad thing at all considering MY MOM IS THE BEST.. I know you probably can agree on your moms..
When I look at Salem when he is sleeping he reminds me of Samuel.. And at first I just cried and cried.. Nw it makes me smile.. Cause I know that Samuel was our prsonal lil angel that day for the dr. God does know what is taking place in all our lives good and bad.. God makes more sense to me daily..
Anyways... Day before yesterday we had to take Salem to the emergency room which he is 9 lbs now and the reason we had to take him and he was xfered to Vandy for overnight obversation was because he was diagnosed with Broncolitis.. Which is under the same umbrella as RSV.. Which is LIFE THREATING.. We are home but we have to montior him constantly.. It is so sad to see him sick.. We had a followup today and his stats are good.. He lost a couple of oz.s because he did not eat much last night or this am.. But this afternoon he is eating much better.. Praise God!!! Please continue to pray for him.. THis is a 3 to 4 wk process and days 3-7 is supposedly the worst and we are on days 3...
So needless to say.. People who dont understand preemies and us not getting out no more.. cause we have ventured out some on the warmer days we had lately but now we are kickin ourselves in the butt for it... but like I was saying people who dont understand have never had a preemie or a sick lil one and does not understand the seriousness can go on with their bad selves cause I am no longer gonna let what they say or do effect my decisions for what is best for Salem.. I appreciate all the support for family and friends and the medical staff that have helped us with Salem.. It is just hard when you get misunderstood or shunned...
Please pray for Brad's family as his Grandfather passed away Saturday Night..
Anyways Enjoy the pictures I post On the next blog in the next few days.. God BLESS YOU..

31 wks and counting!!
Hello!! I promise I am not trying to slack to much on this blogging.. But I am on facebook update through pictures on there every couple of weeks or so..
We are doing well and hanging in there.. Last week we were 30 weeks and 2 days on our appt. and Salem was measuring 33 weeks and 5 days and weighing 4 lbs 5 oz... How amazing is that?!?!?!?! We are so proud and excited.. We will play a game soon for people to take guesses on his weight and length soon.. So if you want to play find us on facebook.
This coming Sunday my aunts, cousins and sister n law are having a tea for me. I am excited about it.. I asked to do it as a tea so people could just come and go how and whenever they want.. I get overwhelmed if I am in front of alot of people at one time.. And I try my best to keep the stress level down not just for me but for Salem as well..
We have been on medicine the last month or so to manage the contractions that I had been having.. And the last couple of days I have not needed it every 6 hours like previously.. Which is a blessing..
I did get vaccinated today for the H1N1.. I have been so nervous about even getting it but the pros outweighed the cons..
We thank you all for your prayers, love, and support.. We have truly been touched by God throughout this whole journey!!

one of those days...
Today is one of those days...
Do You ever try not to dwell on certain things but to feel that you have acheived something it helps tremendously to look
at during those times. I sit here looking back over our last pragnancy in 2008. April was one of those months that I look
and it is a blur and seems at times like it never happened and that I was never pregnant. God is really teaching me faith steps
during this pregnancy. I know sometimes lately I never never just sat and wrote out my feelings so please bare with me as some
of this I may be all over the place..
But as most of my blogger friends know it is great therapy to blog and get your feelings out.. I am actually hoping to print
all of my blogs out and possibly try to write a book at sometime in the future. I was sitting here this afternoon and thought I
usually here recently just write about recipes and updates on this pregnancy..
God Is so good even when we don't understand. I truly believe that even though it may take me a while.. Sometimes in life I guess I
have to go around that same dern mountain before I get to the top of it and on to another one.. Why do we have to be so hard
headed sometimes.. Hey i guess the first step to moving forward is admitting your issues and this is one of mine..
So today we are 23 weeks and 2 days pregnant.. Mom told me and you are gonna me pregnant many more. I said I know mom but
I feel like I have to look at it this way to get over the hump of this week completely.. I look back and can not believe I endured
labor for 5 days and gave birth to a 1 lb 10 oz baby boy who could only fight for 9 days thru the honeymoon period..
Preemies have a honeymoon period and it can go either good or bad.. But either way that experience was an emotional roller
coaster ride with lots of learning experiences to go along with it.. The main thing that I learned was LOVE.. I guess every mother
experiences this but when you know that there is nothing else that you or that the dr.'s can do. you ultimately have to make a
decision that just ain't fair and most are not put in that situation and i pray for those that are faced with that decision.. But I learned
more about love and sacrifice.. There is so many times I thought to myself and prayed Lord please don't let him suffer and help
us all make the best decision here.. And that is when I got a peace that can only come from the Lord.. And sat there and had to let my
baby boy go back to his creator.
okay enough of the sad sobbing story but that is how wacked out my mind is.. So if you are reading this from facebook now
you may understand more of why I am just estatic about each day lately.. I could literally scream yell in excitement but the Good
lord knows i give him all the praise thru it all.. he has made a way where there seemed to be know way.. i thank each of you that are apart of my
life cause without your love and support this would not be a easy as it has been.. God Bless You!

22 weeks and 3 days!!!
We went to the MFG better known as the highrisk dr. yesterday.. We are doing well.. He was head down and boxing away inside of me.. now I know when I have been getting uncomforatable and why.. It was precious to see him doing so well..
I have not posted pictures lately so hopefully i will posted some ultrasound pic's by the end of the week.. I apologize for that..
Well, obviously the "nesting syndrome" has kicked in so I have highlighted weeks of certain things to do around the house and daily stuff to accomplish set out on a list.. along with a color coded calendar.. sounds ridiculous but it helps tremendously to know that I am accomplishing something.. And I never know when they may possibly say you need to go back on bed rest.. I am still taking it easy.. No lifting or straining and no vaccming I make sure that I leave that kind of stuff for Brad.. And yes I even asked him what day of the week does he want to vaccum.. He has only agreed to one day I would do it more than that but I can't so that is where compromise in a marriage comes in.. LOL..:) Some say nesting dont start till third trimester but it has hit me early or I am just going stir crazy.. I sit alot when I do things..
I have even tried to cook some more and the wifey stuff.. tonight I have set some round boneless steak in the fridge to thaw.. Tomorrow night we are having Pepper Steak.. I have not cooked this version before but if you are like me i am always trying to find something new to cook...So I am going to try out the recipe and if I approve cause I am picky I will share the recipe with you the nest time I am on..
May God bless You ALL and I pray that you all have a very blessed week..

Just sitting here...
I have been extremely lazy today.. I guess dreary Sundays are good for that... I am thinking about what all this last year or so has taught me and my family in general.. It is just absolutely amazing.. I know that I mentioned to you about a book I read after losing Samuel.. Well I am about to start reading part 2 of it.. It is call A NEW KIND OF NORMAL BY: CAROL KENT
We are definitly about to embark on a new kind of normal.. God knows I am scared and excited all at the same time.. we have a 22 wk checkup tomorrow and I pray that we get great results.. There is alot that we need to get done to prepare for Salem but I just have not wanted to do anything major till we can get past the 23 to 25 week points... We are so close to get over them hump.. I am so excited but trying to maintain balance.So many ?'s go thru my head..
What is really going to feel like to hear a baby cry right when it is born?
what will it be like changing a diaper outside of a incubiator? Will Salem pee on me the first time like Samuel did? What will it be like to feed Salem right away and not just let him get one time taste from my finger like Samuel? What will it be like the first night home with Salem? So So many more ?'s go thru my head... Will I keep him clean enough... Will I keep him feed enough.. I am just in awe of all these ?'s that constantly pop up in my mind.. I don't remember having these kind of ?'s before..
I guess it is good to have these ?'s so we can highlight these as we go throughout this new journey we are so close to...
Well.. I thank all of you for your love, prayers, and support.. We serve an AWESOME God!!!
May You each have a blessed week!!

Howdy!!
hOwDy!! I am in awe of how quick my blog goes straight to my notes on facebook.. That helps from repeating myself 100 times +... LOL!! :) I set that up a while back so if you are on facebook and we ain't friends yet find me or if you are my friend on Facebook and want to catch up on all previous blogs you can go to: bradntiff.blogspot.com
I realize that blogging more often back in the previous days helped me release quirt a bit off my chest.. I need to pick it back up lots more since I am supposed to be taking it easy and not over doing it.. Talking about not over doing it.. I literally am trying not to do too much and I am so grateful for Brad, my moma, and my aunt Rosie for taking time out to help straighten and organize the house tonight.. We even cleaned out my closet so it is now Salem's closet.. Not much in there yet but we have made him plenty of room for his stuff.. I am excited about getting things moved around.. Now we just have to get some furniture moved out of his room to get it painted but we are going to wait a few more weeks for that..
I am so very thankful that I am not in a rush to get things done. Sometimes in life like with Samuel I believe I got the "cart before the Horse" and this time I have been slow to accomplish things.. I have registered at Target and Babies R Us.. I did not finish registrying for everything but necessities.. I guess I have tried to guard my heart and my emotions this go round.. Probably a bit too much.. Brad even says he isn't getting too excited till after 25 weeks.. So we will see..
If anyone has went thru a hard pregnancy and losing a child I am sure you can relate with us.. Going thru that with Samuel was definitly a FAITH TEST! And now that we are pregnant again and already having a scare we are on the edge of our seat as we would be in a scary movie and really having to put our TRUST AND HOPE IN OUR LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST! I know that I have tried to stay as busy as possible with TV shows, BIBLE READING, hanging out with family, dr. appts, and lots of praying to bypass the WHAT IFS and this next week or so if really a time for me to ponder what the Lord has done for us and not what has not gone our way.. Our ways and HIS ways are usually going in two different diretions especially during tough ruff testing moments which is part of Life... As I have said many times before We would not have been able to handle this with out our Lord Jesus,family, friends, and lots of prayers.
As I write this I think about who may read this and I know I need to say THANK YOU to you.. Cause you obviously have took the time out to follow us and pray for us and took time out to read and care.. THANK YOU..
I am considering going through all my previous blogs and printing them someday soon and using them to write a book.. I know that the Lord has allowed us to go through tests, trials, and life in general to help someone that may cross our path.. If you have known us long enough please give us some inspiration on things that we should not leave out in this book I am wanting to write.. Heck I already asked someone to be the proof reader and who knows if it would even hit the shelves and when but I know God has gave me insight on writing my life story a few years ago while I was in Teen Challenge... What we go thru in our lives is not a mistake but it molds us into who we are becoming good or bad!
Well I have babbled enuf this go around.. I pray that all of you are having a great week and look at what you have this week instead of what you don't!!
God bless YOU!

21 weeks and 1 day.. And takin it easy!!
Hello all! I know that you have not heard from me in a few weeks.. I was gone to my parents all last week cause we had a lil scare about a week and a half ago.. We do ask you for your continued prayers.. We had to go to the Hospital a week ago this past Thursday due to pain, pressure, contractions, Braxton hicks, and a bloody show.. So they kep me Thursday Night and Friday morning to monitor me and Salem.. Yes if you did not know we are having a BOY.. And his name is Salem Joseph Snyder.. Salem means Peace! Lord knows we all need some of that.. Well my dr. was not on call in the midst of Thursday's episodes and Friday's but her partners were so they put me on complete bedrest till Monday and until I could meet with the HIGH RISK DR. and My reg OB..
So I met with them on Monday and with me having the transabdominal cerclage place my cervix is closed at the top but dialated at the bottom.. They want to see me every 2 weeks at the High risk and in 4 weeks to my reg ob.. We are anticipating getting thru the next couple of weeks since I did go in labor with Samuel at 23 weeks and had him at 23 weeks and 6 days.. Prayers are greatly appreciated during this time.. We have discussed as long as I am doing well and get to 35 weeks we will discussed csection for 37 weeks.. Which will be mid December.. We are really looking forward to our Christmas Present this year.. What a JOY to have a baby around Christmas.. We are so excited but trying to remain balanced..
Just cause I am not on bedrest I still have to take it easy and I know my limits and the Braxton Hicks come and go alot at bed time.. I appreciate all of you.. If you have Facebook I am on there updating more and more..
God Bless You!
