more walking updates

She will now walk, going from parent to parent, as far at 17 steps/9 feet.

We have to do this in the hallway of our house because that is the only space long enough.

She will occasionally, and more often than before, let go of a hand early and walk the last few steps to get to an object (usually the keyboard or the couch). She will also, more rarely than the former, let go of something and walk a few steps to get to a person.

She also has better control of her walk. She can slow down, speed up, make small changes in direction, and can correct minor problems with balance. When she gets to a person she no longer falls into them but lightly takes and hand.
