I guess my questions are: do ya'll typically play a baby 2 pair this strongly? And what do you think of the river check?

Results in white: <font color="white">BB has 8d 4c and drags it </font>

Tight passive players are typically calling stations which means that there's a good chance you're going to have to show down the best hand if villain hits the flop at all or maybe even has Ace high. So with little to no folding equity do you really want to play 47s even from the small blind? I'd just muck preflop and save myself the headache.

Other than that, I think you played it fine.
