My man is a baby!

So, our six month old son has been having problems sleeping all night. He flips over on his stomach, freaks out, and then doesn't want to be alone. I mean really, he is learning to turn over, crawl and he is getting teeth. That's a lot! My husband couldn't handle his night of taking care of him. Like the third time he wakes up the husband is freaking out. Ugh, give me my son and I'll take care of him. Patience dude. He claims he felt so bad...please.
Today we were going to take LO to the fair to see the farm animals. I've been waiting forever to take him. What a great learning experience. Ok, when it is time to pack the kid up and go, the hubby lays on the bed and then doesn't want to go. However, instead of telling me last night or this morning he waits till the last minute to tell me he doesn't want to go. Then he decides to go with us and made us all have a miserable time. How embarassing! My parents went and he didn't even talk. He acted like a miserable school child the entire time just moping around. When we got back to my parents house he just sat in the chair with his eyes closed. Then didn't talk to me for the entire 40 minute car ride home. What a great experience for our child.
Not to mention all the other crap he has complained about. We're out of trash bags you need to find another solution. Ok genious, just use the slightly bigger sized trash bags. And he has reminded me like five times to scoop poop out of the yard...how about his cats' vomit on the carpet that he doesn't clean up. Some days I wonder if I can stand him! UGH!
Thanks for reading

Re: My man is a baby!
Does he usually act like this? If he does then I'm sorry :-/
Men just don't have the patience women do. I'm not making excuses but I deal with the exact same thing.
My LO is 6 months today and yesterday I finally went to get my hair done (since having LO! I used to go every 8 weeks)...My apt was at 12:45pm and at 2:22pm I receive this text "Can u get the heck home I'm at my wits end". God forbide I enjoy a little alone time!
MEN!
OH man, I'm sorry, that is not cool at all....
Some guys just can't quite handle things like us moms can, or it takes them a bit longer to get used to things... Is this something he does a lot, or was he just super cranky this time around?
I think you need to give him a kick in the buttox. If he doesn't like the poop or needs different trash bags, how about he gets up and does it! It's not your job to keep track and take care of everything. He lives there, too therefore it's his responsibility just as much!
I hope things get better soon and this was just a silly man phase
