Standard DHCP requests and responses to and from devices on your local network. Nothing to be concerned about.

To answer your question a little more completely, you could track down the devices using those MAC addresses (hopefully shown in their UI somewhere) to make sure they should be on your network. The first 3 elements of the MAC address generally indicate the manufacturer of the device, and the Wireshark OUI lookup tool allows you to find that out: 

b4:39:39:5d:a4:5d - Shenzhen TINNO Mobile Technology Corp.
3c:5c:c4:15:34:a4 - Amazon Technologies Inc.
