That she is going to be a great-grandma for the 1st time? We have waited and are now out of the 1st trimester (we didn't want to get her hopes up) Now I would like some creative ways to tell her? I want to send something through the mail since we don't live near her? Any ideas would be great!!

Send her a calendar marking only 9 mos marking due date. Put on there, monthly, the age of the baby until it's BIRTHDATE.
Also, register online, if she uses a computer, so she may be able to help you shop. Ask her if she still has her crocheting nearby and how you would just love to have a baby blanket for your baby from her...
There are a lot of ideas and you can send her a pic of u, every month, so she may see you blossoming...
OH YEAH... CONGRATULATIONS!!

Get a calender and fill in all your family dates (birthdays, anniversaries, etc.) then put something on your due date...SMITH BABY DUE or YOUR FIRST GREAT GRANDCHILD"S DUE DATE, or something like that. Then mail it off as a gift. When she calls you about it ask her to go through each month and check the dates the she will come upon the special date and be so surprised plus she will have a calender to keep track of the time until the date.
Or send her two newborn outfits a girl one and a boy one then write a note aksing witch one she thinks would be the best to bring a new baby born in ___________ home in.........

I would make a personal card off the computer. I would put your baby picture on the front (Saying hi grandma)and when she opens it up say something to the effect Congradulations your going to be a great grandma. Grandmas love it when you make them things.
Congrats

my friend told me about how someone she knows went to like bulid-a-bear and made a bear and dressed it in the color of the sex of the baby and then put a recording of the babies heart beat and it also had when the baby was due and that she send it to her husband because he was in Iraq and that it was a cute and creative idea :)

if she has email or you can also do it thought regular mail make a card explaining how much you enjoyed being with Grammy when you were little and how much you look forward to her having a wonderful impact on your child
