Embarassed Is my yorkie sleeping too much?

This may be a stupid question but I'm a new yorkie mom/constant worrier.

How much does a puppy normally sleep?? Lilly is almost 5 months old (On the 18th), she is eating/drinking normally (she's my lil piggy) and I belive that her transition to my home has gone fantastically. But I've noticed that she sleeps ALOT. Usually we'll get up at 7 or 8 a.m. (whenever she's ready ) I feed her breakfast (1 heaping tablespoon of wet puppy food, some kibble sprinkled on top and maybe some cottage cheese) she'll beat up her toys for awhile ( an hour or so) then she'll crawl into my lap for a nap.

She'll nap on and off until 1 or 2 then she'll eat some kibble for lunch and play around for a couple of hours eat her Dinner at 5 or 5:30 pm, play until 8 or so..fall asleep again until 10..play then goto sleep around 11:30 and she will sleep throughout the night. She'll get up at 4 or so in the a.m. play for like 15 minutes (and see that I'm really not into it ) then fall asleep again.

Is that too much sleep? Her pooping a peeing are normal..she doesn't throw up. When she's playing she is QUITE energetic and crazy I might add.

Please help..I might just be worrying about nothing..but I just want to be sure.
