Two hands with big pairs

The game is 5/10c NL w/ $10 stacks. Players tend to be a little on the loose side, but are capable of making decent reads and laydowns/value bets/bluffs as appropriate. I am "hero" in one of the following hands and my friend is "hero" in the other. We'd (as a group) would probably be able to hold our own in a 1/2NL casino game (i know, it's not saying much).

Would you guys play either hand differently?

Hand #1: (first hand of cash game for the night)
3 limpers
Button (hero) raises to 35c w/ QQ
SB folds
BB calls
3 limpers call -- $1.80 in the pot

Flop is Jh Th 7d
BB checks, UTG+2 checks, MP bets 75c, fold, hero raises to $1.5
BB reraises to $3, MP folds, hero pushes all-in

MP tends to be somewhat loose preflop, but seems to be experienced at cash games. She also tends to play straightforward postflop.

BB tends to play tighter OOP and a little looser in position. It's hard to put him on a hand here, except it's probably not QQ+/AK.

Hand #2: $10 stacks, about 1.5hrs later
UTG limps, hero raises to 50c w/ AA, MP calls, button (MP from previous hand) calls, blinds fold, UTG calls.
4 players and $2.10 in the pot.

Flop: 9 7 2 rainbow
UTG leads for $1, hero calls $1, MP folds, button raises to $3
UTG folds, hero pushes all in

Button could possibly have 68 or T8 here, but it's unlikely. Given the bet and call, it's probably best to call getting 4:1 and position. A9/K9 might be possible as well, but I'd expect button to call with these hands (instead of raising). 97/ 99/77/22 and overpairs are probably the most likely hands the button would have.
