Homeland Security Hijinx

I received my green card yesterday. (It's actually more green-ish than green, but definitely not pink, as some fiendish souls led me to believe).
Anyway, in advance of this momentous event, last Thursday I received a "Welcome Notice" from the department of Homeland Security welcoming me *with great pleasure* to the United States. I thought that was nice.
On Friday, I received another Welcome Notice. Identical, except dated February 10 instead of February 9 like the first one.
Saturday I received another Welcome Notice. Yesterday, I received
two Welcome Notices. I know math is hard, but even I can figure out that's five welcome notices.
I completely understand that the Department might be excited to have me here in this country on an allegedly permanent basis. I'm excited too. But all this attention is a little unnerving.
I try to call them but all I get is a recorded message. Not very welcoming.

They're probably just so thrilled that you came in legally...
