Is this good, bad, or ugly?

CO is 75/15/0.4. MP is 41/9/0.9.

- flop is dry and I am WA/WB (only ace hurts me usually) so I made bit smaller cbet than my norm
- after flop cbet was called in 2 places I was a bit lost: There's no real signs yet that my hand is beaten (against these two guys) yet it is not that strong I want to go full speed ahead
- turn I decided to check and see what happens behind be so I can get out if they get crazy. After MP checks and CO bets small I feel I have good chance of having the best hand. He could have any pocket pair and think I cbet missed flop, a weaker Q or AQ, or be milking value from trips. I am still not sure about my hand and if he has weak Q or PP I do not want to fold him out so I just called
- river is very weak from him so my hand feels good. I still just call to "make sure I don't at least make any big mistake". Did I miss value not raising?

Looks good to me. I agree CO could be playing a range of mid pocket pairs the way he has played this.
