Dom - Yes, you told me so... thanks! On the other hand, apparently last night i was just being a b**** and i needed to stop telling him what to do. I told him that if he was doing the stuff on his own or even when i just asked that it wouldn't come to that. He didn't want to talk to me much last night. Another joke about not getting any (sunday was not that long ago... really now) and i went to bed.
Sounds like you're doing well, with the "firm but fair" approach.
I think as long as you both keep being firm... AND try to somehow keep it with a feeling of working with a "partner" rather than a "child", that he will settle down after a week or two. (even though he's ACTING like a child...)
It's tough to keep it out of the "parent/child" level, I know... especially when they act like a child by being pouty but sounds like you're doing well! You might want to "reward" him with sex tonight, though. Not only does it make him feel better about him doing stuff for you over the last few days... but good sex, makes a husband feel more like doing more things for you in the near future. (especially if you mention during it, that you are feeling happy because he's been helping you. If you ignore his poor attitude, and focus on the positive there, he might drop the attitude in the future)
So, there's a little insight into handling husbands for you
