Sorry, but everybody else is wrong. If you have your two-year CR1 green card, you can use it and your valid passport to travel in and out of the US as you like.
Just make sure you don't miss the appointment for application for your 1-year card.

You can apply for a pre-permission-permissiong to re-enter, but it's not guaranteed to be approved, or that they won't consider you leaving as abandoning your application for residency. It's best to wait the 2 years to get the 10 year residency card before doing any travel outside the U.S.

No, you can apply for travel permission but there are a few things that you have to meet before they grant you travel permission
If you have never overstayed a visa or been illegal/undocumented, you can apply for travel permission. This too is a document that can be filed with your application (for fastest results) or later on. It requires a photograph, much like a U.S. passport photograph, and is valid for one year. It generally takes about one month to receive your document. With this too, if you have not received your green card within 8 months, apply for renewal of your travel document.
