A person born in the U.S. becomes a U.S. citizen by birth, regardless of the parents' nationalities or immigration status, and this remains true even if the child lives most of his life outside of the U.S. The U.S.-born person may file an application for a Certificate of Citizenship to obtain documentary evidence of his/her status as a U.S. citizen, and with the Certificate of Citizenship may apply for a U.S. passport. In many instances, a U.S. citizen who has reached age 21 would be able to petition for other family members, such as parents, to obtain immigration status. It would be wise to consult with an immigration attorney about the details, in order to confirm eligibilities and to address options and strategies.

You did not state how much delay so I cannot say if you should take any further actions. It is very common for the USCIS to scrutinize N400 if the green card is based on marriage.

Generally, an adjustment of status application process for a foreign national in the marriage-based Immediate Relative visa category involves filing a Petition for Relative Alien, an Application for Adjustment of Status, biographical information forms, an Affidavit of Support, application for an Employment Authorization Document (and for some, an application for Advance Parole) and a full set of supporting documents. Failure to properly complete and fully document applications can lead to substantial delays or even more harsh consequences. Immigration applications often can be far more complex than they may appear, and it would be wise for you and your wife to consult with an immigration attorney who, after learning all of the relevant information about you and your family could advise about immigration eligibilities, options and strategies, and could then offer legal representation in the application process.
