My first lightroom edit.

What do you think? CC welcome!

If the one on the left (the first one) is your final, edited version, then it looks good. If the one on the right is the edited version, then you're white balance is screwed up -- kids shouldn't be yellow-green.

Lol I posted the wrong one! I was trying weird effects and I saved like 10 versions! Give me one sec ill go to my laptop and load the pic!

Not too shabby for your first try. Your kids are adorable and their expressions are priceless. A faster shutter speed would have been needed here to stop the motion. Keep on truckin' though.

Thank you! And I know! It's really sad because that's my favorite picture of them together! It really shows how their relationship is!

Yes, I think this is pretty good. They are cuties! There are a couple little things I'd have done differently, but overall, I think you did fine.

Not bad! Are they sitting on something blue? There's a reflection in the lower right, probably easy to get rid of in AR.

Thanks! I would love to know what is that you would've done different.

Yes they are sitting in a blue thing. And of course I would've loved for this not to be the bathroom but that's where they where playing around. :/

Very minor, really: Like KathyT mentioned, a little faster shutter would have stopped your daughter's hand. I think I'd have tried (kid's are fast) to frame it out a bit - moved back or zoomed out. It could have gotten all of your son's fingers in the shot. Again, really minor things. I think you got the really important things - the colors, a nice composition, and the excitement/happiness they are experiencing.

Tell us what you did.
What release of LR do you have? 4?

Which panels/tools did you use? If you used the Basic panel, which sliders did you change, and what value did you change them to.
Did you use the Tone Curves panel? Custom or with the sliders? The Sharpening panel?
It's pretty obvious you made a vignette, likely with the Effects panel.

For example:
Basic Panel
Exposure +1 EV
Blacks +5
Brightness +50
Contrast +25
Clarity +60
Vibrance +15
Sharpen Panel - 25, 1.0, 25, 0
Noise Reduction - Color 25, Color Detail 50
Adjustment Brush
Exposure +0.5 EV
Sharpen +65
