I've got a Nikon D40 as well and I use the Nikon ML-L3 remote when I use my tripod, works great.

Great job for your first try at night shots. I plan to do a night shoot soon myself.

The grainy pics are due to you ISO being too High. Changing the ISO setting on your camera changes the sensitivity to light of the image sensor inside of it.
The lower number that you select the less sensitive the sensor is to light (and conversely the higher the number the more sensitive it becomes).
This is useful when you’re shooting in different lighting situations - particularly when there’s low light and you might not be able to use a flash (you’d bump up your ISO setting in this case).
The only cost of increasing ISO is that as you do it you’ll notice that the ‘noise’ or ‘grain’ in your shots also begins to increase.
You probably won’t notice this graininess on your images when lookin at them on the LCD on your camera - however when you get them back to your computer they’ll become noticeable with higher ISO settings.
