seems like it will never happen

I have been practicing on average a half hour a day for a few weeks and it seems like my chord speed is not getting much better. I had a few lessons from an instructor and have been using the guitar for dummies book. One chord change that is particularly bad for me is going from D to G. My pinky finger (#4) shoots way up in the air before going down on the high E-string. It seems like the motion will never be quick enough to play any song in 4/4 time let alone anything faster :( Is this a normal part of learnig or should I realize that I am guitar handicaped by now?
