Am I spewing or does the logic justify flop raise and turn bet?

Blinds: $0.50/$1.00 (5 Players) CO: $151.11 (Hero)
BN: $372.26
SB: $117.96
BB: $100.00
UTG: $224.83
Preflop ($1.50) Hero is CO with A 4
UTG checks, Hero calls $1.00, 2 folds, BB checks
Flop ($4.00) T 4 6
BB checks, UTG bets $3.80, Hero raises to $11.13, BB folds, UTG calls $7.33
Turn ($26.26) T 4 6 T
UTG checks, Hero bets $10.72, UTG calls $10.72

I ended up limping this hand for a couple of reasons, I was getting 3bet a reasonable amount by BU and I have been trying out different limping ranges with recreational players so I can play a wider range etc. Thus far I don't know how well it is going to work lol.

This recreational player happened to be playing 60/18/16 C-betting was 50% over 30 opportunities and I had 300 hands on him

My thoughts on the flop are that I don't really want to call his bet with a player behind, because I can get squeezed out at some frequency he gets into the pot with all sorts of equity etc, even though likely he would just bet out if he had a stronger hand and not checkraise (so maybe the idea that I am scared to continue with a 4 because BB is going to raise or whatever is not really logical)

I raised to isolate the rec player, define his hand a little bit better, get BB out of the pot, and to protect my equity, turn T pairing, I assume that he is going to have an absolute ton of flushdraws and gutshots so I elect to bet 40% or so to check the river.

After I looked at this hand I asked my self if it was really necessary to do this.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
