Taking on a lot so husband does not have to?

I am a first time mom. I just gave birth Dec. 23rd, 2010. When it comes to my husband I try to take on a lot. My husband works a full-time job and I do not but I get work in. I am a full-time student online and taking care of a new born and two dogs at the same time is not easy. I also make sure I do all the cleaning on top of that. At night time my daughter some times does not want to sleep or just wants to be held. I am the one getting up every time she cries or is awake. But that is by choice. I get so tired and frustrated. My husband tries to help but I just won't let him sometimes. I would rather him get sleep than I because I always feel bad if he doesn't. Are there any wives out there that try to take on a lot when it comes to your husband?

That is amazing, I try to do the same but its mostly at night that I dont bother him cause I know he has to get up early to work for us. We are not all that lucky to find wonderful men like them. Good luck as well cause I know it's not easy.
