My first job was in a government bank. There wasn't a lot of work in banks in 2009 but still I was always tired🤪⁣
⁣
It took me 2 years to find out the reason- It was excruciatingly boring to me. I didn't enjoy it at all. I knew that I had to come out of that 'secure' job and I did. I would have been earning a lot more but that doesn't matter✌️⁣
⁣
I have been writing and doing social media since 2014. I still enjoy it but now I am itching to do something more. I have a few ideas but nothing is concrete yet. I am trying to figure out my next step🤔⁣
⁣
If something exciting happens, I will announce it here🙂 In case you have any suggestions for what I should do next, please comment or send me a DM 🙏⁣
By the way, can you relate with this quote?⁣

#SocialWithMaitri⁣
My most used apps for Social Media-⁣
Even though Instagram has a lot in the app itself, we need more apps to make our work stand out.⁣
I use very few apps and here are my favourites-⁣
⁣
🌟 Canva- I use this for my quotes and sometimes for stories too. Very easy to use and customisable even in the free version. It also has a desktop website and you can sync your work easily.⁣
⁣
🌟 Snapseed- I use it to sharpen and brighten my pictures.⁣
⁣
🌟 InShot- For editing videos. Very very useful.⁣
⁣
🌟 Quik- Super quick and easy app to make videos from pictures.⁣
⁣
🌟 Image Size- I use this when I need to fit images in portrait or landscape mode. It resizes them in correct proportion without messing up the quality.⁣
⁣
🌟 For stories, Unfold and Mojo are good choices but I don't use them because I don't want to put in extra work; raw stories work for me.⁣
⁣
I use an Android phone but I am sure that all of these apps are available on iOS also.⁣
Which are your most used apps for Social Media?⁣

Nani ke ghar jaunga, mota hoke aaunga🤭⁣
We are at Idhaya's Nani ka ghar these days and this is how it's going 👇⁣
⁣
💛Her Nani thinks that Idhaya doesn't eat enough or rather I don't feed her enough. I am not able to convince my mom that she eats enough mostly and is going through a phase which started as soon as we reached her Dadi ka ghar. I am sure that even if Idhaya was eating normally, my mom still wouldn't be satisfied 🤣⁣
⁣
💛No holds barred so Idhaya is doing whatever she wants to.⁣
⁣
💛This girl doesn't leave me even here and I was expecting some relief 😭
⁣
💛Idhaya has caught cold and has a bad cough. I am attributing it to climate change and pollution.🙄
⁣
💛She has confiscated all the soft toys and whatever else she lays her eyes on.⁣
How does it go when you take your kids to their grandparents' place?⁣
On a side note- Idhaya styled herself for this picture🙃 and managed to look cute😍⁣

Babies get to eat whenever they want. They get to cry whenever they want. I am not a baby for sure😅
How about you?

Chhotu Motu Joshi is the name given to Idhaya by her Papa 😆⁣
I call her Haseena, Cuddloo, Chooza D’souza and what not 🙈⁣
⁣
There are many more funny names of this munchkin and they are different from a pet-name or nick-name. In fact, Idhaya is her nick-name and the name on her birth certificate is something else 😮⁣
⁣
She will be known by that name in her school and then later on in life. We have told her that name and she responds to it 😄⁣
⁣
People close to her will always call her Idhaya and the funny names that we use to call her now will be forgotten.⁣
Still, it’s cute to call her with all these quirky names and she responds to all of them 🤣⁣
You also have such names for your kids, right? Share them here and let’s smile together on the cuteness 😄⁣

What's the cutest thing your toddler does which melts your heart?⁣⁣😊
⁣
I might have disowned Idhaya for messing with me if only she didn't have those innocent eyes, mispronounced words, little fingers, weird dance moves and whatever else is the part of package 🙈 Her cuteness is essential for the both of us 😅⁣⁣

We got a professional photoshoot done recently. It was our second because the first one was washed by rains.⁣
⁣
I really needed a few pictures for the gram and the husband rarely gets time.⁣
Sakshi from @audi_sakshi was our talented photographer. She is still a student of Photography but her work is good. I got the kind of pictures I usually upload.⁣
You might want to contact her if you are in Jaipur. Thanks @eight_things_by_preeti for recommending her😊
⁣
About these pictures-⁣
I might keep getting pecks from Idhaya all day but when it came to getting such a shot, we got a whole album of fails 😆(swipe➡️➡️)⁣
It's tough to shoot with kids because they get bored and then cranky. Idhaya held on for a little over an hour but lost it after that 😅⁣ We wrapped up within 1.5 hours😆
Do you also get professional shoots done for gram or otherwise? I would love to know your experience.⁣
