my point is, do not expect approval for your minor son yet if neither you nor wife is not naturalised yet.
You are very unlikely to get approval for your son.
The conditions for a CoN for a minor are clear - at least one of the parent must be entitled to Irish citizenship.
Except, either one of you have been in Ireland at least 3yrs at the time of his birth. In which case, you apply for his Irish passport and not a CoN because he is automatically an Irish citizen.
Please note that the number of years a minor has been in Ireland is not relevant if any of the parent are not Irish or have stayed on the Island of Ireland at least 3years at the time of his/ her birth.
The following may be of interest to you:
A person born in the island of Ireland after 1 January 2005 to parents, at least one of whom was an Irish or British citizen or entitled to reside in the State or Northern Ireland without any restrictions on his or her residence, has an entitlement of Irish citizenship. Otherwise, a person born in the island of Ireland after 1 January 2005 is entitled to Irish citizenship only if, during the four year period immediately preceding the person’s birth, one of the parents has been resident* in the island of Ireland for a period of not less than three years and neither parent was entitled to diplomatic immunity in the State.

All the very best
I am not agree with you one can apply his/her minor's citizenship after 5 years if the minor was born in Ireland
