First Christmas time is not a good time to get a new puppy no matter what breed.
Yorkies are fragile because of their size and many breeders won't sell to families with very young children.
And you need to be able to financially take care of a Yorkie, they are expensive to maintain. You have to figure out the cost of shots, spaying or neutering, food and unexpected vet bills. We had to take one of our Yorkies to the emergency vet and had to put over $900 down as a deposit for them to take her (they were planning on keeping her overnight and calling in the neurologist, so they wanted money upfront)
A nice pet quality Yorkie can run around $1000. I paid over $1000 for Beamer, and he is pet quality.
You can also probably find a nice Yorkie through a Rescue group. Check your local shelter out as well.
But, I really would rethink a Yorkie with a 2.1/2 year old and being a single mom with financial limitations.
Oh, and no, it is not normal to be constantly shaking.
