As of right now I have 2 CFL lights about an inch or so away from my plant ( A 13W and an 18W). Right now it's still a pretty small little sprout. Wondering if I should buy a different type of light for this stage or if it's fine for now? And what type of lighting do you recommend I use as she develops and grows bigger? Thanks in advance!

That's plenty of light until she gets going. You can use that lighting for the next 2 weeks. After that I would want an upgraded light. I'd go COB array or quantum board for sure. Personal preference.
You can get an HPS for cheaper.
Cobkits.com where I got my cob kit.
 
If you don't want to go all the way to a COB set up as mentioned.. I'd suggest multiple 125w CFL's with some reflectors. I grew a few autoflower under some and they did decent; seed to harvest with 2700k's. A little stretchy but nonetheless good for what it was with impressive trich development.
