  We consider the quadratic Schr\"odinger system
  $$iu_t+\Delta_{\gamma_1}u+\overline{u}v=0$$ $$2iv_t+\Delta_{\gamma_2}v-\beta
v+\frac 12 u^2=0,$$ where $t\in\mathbf{R},\,x\in \mathbf{R}^d\times
\mathbf{R}$, in dimensions $1\leq d\leq 4$ and for $\gamma_1,\gamma_2>0$, the
so-called elliptic-elliptic case. We show the formation of singularities and
blow-up in the $L^2$-(super)critical case. Furthermore, we derive several
stability results concerning the ground state solutions of this system.
