Default Is this normal?

Please forgive my ignorance but since this is my 1st bike ever, I am pretty clueless when it comes to what is normal and what is not so I figured I ask the experts. I was washing the bike today and when I was moving the bike and turning the handle bars left to right or viceversa, I noticed the front of it slides from side to side just a bit and I am not sure if this is normal or not. I attached some pics for you guys to check it out and tell me. I had not noticed this before and I just got the bike back from its initial 600 mile service so I want to make sure they didn't mess anything up, thanks guys!

This is a front pic

Here there is a small gap

Here there is no gap when I move the handle bars to the opposite position

Same as above, opposite side

And after rotating the handle bars
