Are we just friends or something more after the breakup?

My ex and I were together for six years and we broke up in April. Things have obviously been complicated since then but lately our interactions have started feeling less and less like two people who are completely done with each other.
She came over for dinner and kept making little comments like I don’t like that incense but I don’t live here lol. It almost felt like she was reminding herself that this isn’t her home anymore. I joked back Yeah you don’t live here lol and she said You don’t have to repeat it lol. We watched movies talked and just enjoyed being around each other.
We went to breakfast washed her car went to Target and ended up spending pretty much the whole day together. She even bought me a new welcome mat for my front door. We hugged and kissed throughout the day and people walking past us were literally saying things like Look at y’all in love. Even our son told us we should be together.
She kept making comments about my place too like All the fall decorations… too bad I can’t decorate since I don’t have a house. I joked that she could pay for everything and decorate my house for me. At the end of the day she told me she was glad I came.
She wasn’t feeling well so I brought her some things she needed. Her mom was happy to see me and while talking to my ex’s brothers on the phone said My son-in-law is over here. Her brothers then wanted to talk to me because they hadn’t seen me in a while.
At one point while we were hugging and kissing I held eye contact with her and she said You make me feel so vulnerable like my guard is down and I don’t want my guard down.
I told her I’m not doing nothing. We’re just two people chilling who occasionally kiss and hug lol. She said she liked that better.
Later she texted me saying she wanted ice cream. I brought it to her and asked You just wanted to see me didn’t you? She said yes and admitted she didn’t even want the ice cream that badly. I told her Next time just say you want to see me. I’ll like that.
At one point our son even said My momma and daddy been kissing all day right in front of her parents 😂.
There are also all these little things she says that stay in my head. She told me she likes when I talk in a low voice because it calms her down. She’s made comments about things she finds attractive about me and there is clearly still a lot of physical chemistry between us.
She has even asked me before if I only invite her over for sex. But honestly the more time we spend together the more it feels like there’s something deeper happening. We can hang out run errands eat talk joke around and somehow fall right back into the comfort we had when we were together.
That’s probably the weirdest part. None of this feels forced.
She willingly spends time with me. She initiates things. She admits when she wants to see me. She kisses me hugs me and seems completely comfortable around me.
I’m not trying to force anything or chase her. I’m just letting things happen naturally and paying attention to what she does.
I know we broke up for a reason and there are still things we would have to work through if we ever got back together. But after everything that has happened since April I honestly never thought we would end up here.
It feels like two people who technically broke up but somehow keep finding their way back to each other.
I’ve also been working relentlessly on myself and she has noticed.
So I have to ask… does this actually sound like reconciliation could be in the works or am I reading too much into everything?
