Welcome!
Keep at it. You're doing fine.
A few things: from pic of your bike (nice, btw) it looks as though your brifters are really high, almost on top of the handlebars. (or are the bars tilted back too much?) Does this position feel okay to you? Why I'm asking is... if you are in the drops, I can't imagine that you would be able to touch them at all.
OMG - You are so right! I didn't notice before being a newbie but I just compared it to pictures I have of other bikes and those are very off. I think the handlebars are just tilted up too far. I did notice that there is little handlebar there when I go down to hold on to the drops. I feel like I have nothing to hold on to down there. I will take it to the bike store and have them adjust it.
