^ That's the wife, who wanted to post.

Yayyy, of course you should celebrate! Lol, maybe you're hesitant because you're following a post in which we question CIC's competence, is that it?
Don't worry about it being "application received." Some people get to "in process" before PPR....some but not all, and the most important thing to pay attention to is this communication from the visa office.
How many PPRs are we up to this week? 5 or something? Damn, this is a good week.
Yay! Thanks everyone for the responses, btw ddobro2 put in the topic our timeline for you to put on the spreadsheet several pages back now wherever last week was.
but here's the updated version then:
App Sent: May 27th 2011
App Received: May 30th 2011
In Process: July 5th 2011
Sponsorship Approval Date/Xfer to Buffalo: July 5th 2011
Buffalo received applicant's part (we didn't figure out if this = AOR): July 14th 2011
PPR: October 6th 2011 (day email was received)
I totally didn't expect this either, my wife just gave birth and most of my day was being occupied by checking on our little girl in the NICU and checking on wife who had to have an emergency c-section following a pretty quick and crappy turn during later stages of labour. I had just paid for wi-fi at the hospital and went to do my obligatory bedtime CIC app check to see if there were any updates, use e-mails I sent to myself with the info to copy/paste both mine and my Canadian wife's ID numbers i.e. looking at both of the separate numbers we were given to see if they might say anything different, but the email inbox had that email from Buffalo there which, being completely dead tired (like "almost nodding off while typing and nearly dropping the laptop out of my lap" tired), I almost had mistaken for spam until I read it again and remembered 99% of spam doesn't include my first/last/middle name and my application number in the subject part.
