Thank you everyone!
I cannot believe it is over. Just need to have it in hand and then the world will feel right again. Crazy how this process totally takes over our lives.
The appointment was at 9:15 and I woke up around 6:00 and went over everything again. I had an entire binder zipped full of information/evidence/copies of everything.
We arrived at 8:55 and were seated in the waiting area by 9. I was so tense for no reason, it was actually nice having the baby there as he seemed to lighten the mood for everyone in the waiting room!
We were called in at 9:30 by one officer, and walked back and there were two officers in there, one observed. They were both very nice. My husband held the baby and I dealt with our evidence. They swore us in and then asked to see my passport, my sons original birth certificate. They went over the basic information such as where we were born and our names etc. They then asked if I had any additional information, but that it wasn't really needed as the package was complete. She took a recent paystub of my husbands and saw we were over the necessary income for a family of three and photocopied it.
She asked how long we had known eachother, how long we had been dating before we got married (6 years), and whether I intended to stay when I came into the USA last (I did not). She then told us we were approved! I said "They make this sound way scarier on the internet!" they both smiled and said we had good proof, and obviously our 3 month old was there too lol.
I am still waiting for a text or email update about I-130 and I-485 forms but maybe they do not do that! Anyways I am very happy and relieved that it is over, at least for now

I made an account online when I got my first noa and have been updated via email. The texts just say to log on and check account. They sent an email that says they mailed a notice for an interview that will take place November 20th. It does not say the time but I received the letter last week with the time. I will update my timeline when I can get on a computer but I do not have the patience to do it on phone, it is all in my signature as well! hope you hear something soon!!

Welcome to the forum.
We used ONE envelope for, the essentially 2 sets of AOS/EAD/AP (I-485/I-765/I-131) applications and associated documents for my wife (K1) and stepson's (K2) AOS processing packet.
YMMV,
BTW, When you get a chance, It helps everyone that uses the forum.
Good luck on your immigration journey.

A cover letter is helpful, but not necessary. I did mine without any cover letter and it went just fine.

I did one short cover letter outlining the 4 forms I was sending (I-139, I-485, I-765, I-131) and then did detailed cover letters for each section separately. Otherwise my item by item cover letter was 2 pages long. Plus the package is split up so I wanted each separate section to have a cover letter.
I used one envelope and clips to separate the sections.
That said, I asked that question here and I was told one cover letter is fine.
