A working print of a candid portrait from a 2nd birthday party. Please critique, should I burn in the face and shirt some more, dodge the forehead some?

Triky one to print I would think. I think dodging the eyes would help plus burning in the cheeks and nose and that hot spot on her shoulder. Cute kid, good luck!
 
I think you could have saved yourself a lot of printing problems, and improved the lighting if you would have used a white reflector to the left to bounce some light under the brim of the hat and into the face, so that by moving the reflector closer or further away you could balance the lighting.
