4yo gets couple little yellow bruises on her lower back and couple little yellow bruises outer thigh, is this ok?

Yes: Those are contact areas and bruising will occur there with bumps. It is areas such as the backs of the legs and the inner parts of the arms where you wouldn't expect bruising that would be worrisome.
