Telling family the good news - Ways to announce?

Hi, my husband and I recently found out that we are pregnant and I planned on telling our families on Mother's Day.  Please suggest cute ways of telling them the good news!!!!!!!  Gift suggestions, which let them know of the good news? 

All suggestions welcome and keep them coming.

Thanks.

    We jused a poem and put it in a frame for both sets of grandparents...

     do not have a face to see,
    Or put inside a frame.
    I do not have soft cheeks to kiss,
    I don't yet have a name.
    You can't yet hold my tiny hands, 'nor whisper in my ear.
    It's still too soon to sing a song, or cuddle me so near.
    But all will change come summer time,
    That's when they say I'm due.
    I'll be your first grandchild; I can't wait till I meet you.
    All I ask between now and then is your patience while I grow.
    I promise I'll be worth the wait, because of all the love we'll know.
    So have a Merry Christmas
    A wish to you from me.
    I cannot wait to be a part
    Of this great family!

    We got a t-shirt for our dog that said "I'm going to be a big brother!" and brought him to both grandparents' houses wearing it.

    ?

    I know, kind of lame, but our dog was like our first child :)?

    You could wear a shirt saying "I'm going to be a mommy" or something like that, haha. Or give your mom a mother's day card that says To Grandma  :)

    We announced on my Birthday so after dinner the Birthday cake said "Baby _______ is on the Way!"  

    You could do a "Mother's Day" Cake if you wanted!

    I had a friend who told her family by taking a picture of her and her husband.  They each had similar football tshirts on and they had writting on the picutes...new shirts $20, snacks for the game $30, knowing there are three people cheering in this picture...priceless.  It was really cute!
