One more song for Mia

This is the last-resort, put-her-to-sleep song when she's crying up a storm (like today... she logged about 6 hours of crying so far! Darn vaccinations!)

Seated baby on bouncing knee...
Mia likes to ride the horsey knee
bumpity, bumpity, bump bump bump
Someone call the cavalry!
bumpity, bumpity, bump!

bump, bump, a-bump-bum-bum
bumpity, bumpity, bump bump bump
bump, bump, a-bump-bum-bum
bumpity, bumpity, bump bump bump!

Someone else needs to take the reins,
bumpity, bumpity, bump bump bump
Mia's performing a circus act
bumpity, bumpity, bump!
She is standing on the horse's back
bumpity, bumpity, bump bump bump
Juggling *animals front and back
bumpity, bumpity, bump!

bump, bump, a cow and horse
bumpity, bumpity, bump bump bump
bump, bump, a frog and moose
bumpity, bumpity, bump!
... and so on. Mia has juggled fruit, houses, dog toys, utensils, anything I could think of. Eventually she falls asleep! It is a little fun for me, too, as I try to come up with new things for her to juggle.
