My 485 got approved on Dec 21,2004 and I got the approval papers by mail from my lawyer.
So I took the infopass appointment for me, my wife and my daughter (5 year old) at Miami district office at 7-30, 7-45 and 8-00 AM respectively for Jan 4,2005.
We reached the USCIS office at the intersection of Biscayne blvd and NW 79 th street at about 7-20 and we were asked to go to the back of the building.
The guard let us all three of us in. We then went into a room where there were about 40/50 people waiting and we were asked to place our I-797 forms in a tray. They collected our 797 and after sometime they called us to finger print , took our pictures and were asked to wait.
They called one by one all the people Fped , they took away EADs, I-94 and stamped our passports with I-551 and were done. We entered at about 7-30 and were out by 9-00AM.
There were posts that said they would not let in people 30 mins before scheduled appointment time but in our case they did.

They took the pictures

They took the pictures using their camera which is one like the one we see at DMV. I carried passport pictures but they were not used.
 
Did you need to get three appointments or would one have been enough? I have taken 2 for myself and my wife but did not take any for my kids. Do you think that I need to get separate ones for the kids?

What other documents were required?

I have an appointment at the Miami office for next week.
 
Yes , I took three appointments each 15 minutes apart.
I dont know if they will not allow your kid if you dont have an appointment.
