Answer 1

spooning usually means cuddling.  He is the big cuddler and you are the little cuddler.  Kind of an odd term, but I think that is what he means.  If you want to know for sure, ask him.

Answer 2

Your snuggling, laying on your side, and he's laying behind you.  Your knees are bent and so are your hips, so that you two lay together like spoons in a drawer.
