Hi and Welcome to YT. How sweet of your DH (dear husband) to get you a Yorkie for Christmas!!
I think they are puppies maybe until they are a year old, but don't know if there really is a "cut-off" just like babies, when are they not babies anymore? Mine is 22yrs old. lol!
They like to play! that is a good way to bond. get a toy and play tug of war. Or play fetch, or chase. I actually get on the floor with mine. (creek, creek)
Even when you are training them with treats, they like that and bond with you. treats=nice person. Of course cuddling and holding doesn't hurt.

have a wonderful time bonding with her. Donna
