Joys
From day 1, he has slept like a champ in her crate, LOVES it and has never once cried or kept us up at night.
He pees 100% of the time on his pad in his pen ( his crate door is left open so he can get up and pee if needed, but usually makes it through the night! (however if he is out of the pen, he will pee whereever he wants if not watched like a hawk)
His sweet little puppy kisses, and the way he greets us when we get him up. He lays his lil ears back and wags his tail like crazy...it's so cute!
The way he has bonded well with the kids...he loves chasing them around the house.
He has a really soft bed at my husband's office that he gets so excited about when he see's it. I think it reminds him of his mommy's tummy, as he nuzzles it and cuddles it!

Frustrations
He squirms like crazy in your arms, and makes it a danger for anyone other than my husband and I to hold him....the kids know they cant hold him unless sitting on the ground. But he has attempted to leap out of our arms several times.
He refuses to poop in his xpen and walks around while pooping, so even though he knows to go on the mat, he ends up walking off of it and pooping about 6-12 inches off of it everytime.
He has officially found his voice, and WOW!!! Ear piercing yaps at the kids or our cat, or the vacuum....OUCH!
He rarely sits still and sleeps on us....he is only interested in sleeping in his crate, and just once, I would love to have him snuggle up to me so we could nap together
Rocco is what I call a "poop traveler" Bella does the same thing but she is outside pottied trained...Maybe you could put down another potty pad so he has more pad to travel on

I think all Yorkies puppies are squirmers when hold them...I NEVER let anyone pick up my pup I tell them NO...I know it sounds rude but its only for the safety of my pup...He has almost jumped out of our arms too so what I do now if I know I will be picking him up I put his harness on him and hold on to that
