Shower thank you gifts for mom/mil

My mother and mother-in-law are throwing my shower and I am trying to think of a cute gift/way to thank them for all they are putting into the shower.  I have already bought them both grandma brag books but was wondering if anyone else could think of something that would be good to give them.  My mother-in-law will be a grandma for the 7th time and my mom will be a grandma for the first so the things they may appreciate are different.  However, I would love to give them the same gifts to make it fair. 

Thanks for your help ladies and hope everyone is doing well!

    Well it doesn't work if you want to give them the same gifts but for my mom and MIL, DH and I went with something specific to them and their needs... something they would use often. For MIL it was a nice travel coffee mug and for my mom it was a neat l

    I got all of my hostesses towel aprons from etsy, and they loved them. (In fact I loved them and wish I had kept one!)

    We lost our first (EDD 07/23/12) after finding out at 12 weeks there was no longer a heartbeat. Our rainbow was born 05/22/13 and was worth all we went through.

    My mom and SIL threw a family lunch for me.  I gave my mom some tea towels from Target that matched her dining table linens.  I gave my SIL a small make-up bag with a Burt's Bees sampler and a couple face mask packets inside.

    I gave my mom a coach purse (outlet) that would be big enough for a diaper bag because she watches DD full time.  Then I added a bunch of grandma things in there but for the baby - bibs, onesies, pacis, etc all with cute grandma sayings.

    I gave bottles of wine when I was pregnant with DS. Maybe picture frames that say "worlds best Grandma" or something?</
