Awww! Don't worry, you'll get to play around soon! You're already getting lucid in your dreams, so it won't be long now

Do you do reality checks while awake? If I may suggest, try combining your RC with a reminder to stabilize. Like for me, I won't do the stabilizing IWL like I do with the reality check, but my mind carries on the thought: "If I was dreaming right now, then I would rub my hands together, or reach out and touch that tree," or something. It might help push your mind into that next level of lucidity

Overall, don't feel too bad The majority of my lucids tend to be a level 2 (awareness of the dream, with control, but still stuck in the plot). Even if it makes it harder to accomplish tasks, they're still very enjoyable
