I think she is just maturing a little more slowly than your other yorkies. You really are lucky to have what sounds like a very, very, well socialized little puppy and that is something you can pat yourself on the back for. I think you will see her become more and more your dog and a more apparent bond form as she gets older. Her focus skills are probably still in the works and to help it along, you might consider a puppy obedience class. I've found training to be very bonding for a dog and myself.

Sitting on the floor playing with her and letting her have more fun with you than with anyone else is a good idea. Also try not to pick her up too much when she is feeling super playful. Practice having her come to you with little bits of a yummy snack and give her back rubs or scratches when she does, and then play with her with a tug toy.

Overall, I really think she is probably bonded to you, but is easily distracted and still very active and curious about everything. Give it more time.
