In fact usually it is a good thing to have strings you are not playing slightly muted like this so they won't make undesired or unintentional sound.

[quote=el.lobo]should i be worrying about bad position at this point or just consentrate on getting my fingers to reach and move in a fluid way and correct later.

This is exacly right. Just worry about getting your fingers moving for now. Later as you refine your playing more over time you might find a situation in which it is desireable to keep your fingers clear of a higher string. For example, you might find a musical situation in which it is required to have the string above ringing out.

But for now you are doing fine. Hope this helps!
