Restore Database problem

Hi Gurus,
I am doing Backup and Restore.
But while restore it restore from the previous backup.
What am I doing wrong.
BACKUP DATABASE TestDB TO DISK = 'c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\MSSQL\BACKUP\TestDB.bak'
RESTORE DATABASE TestDb FROM disk='c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\MSSQL\BACKUP\TestDB.bak'
Please reply. I am desperate.
RCDo you have more than one backup in that device? If so you must specify
which one.
