I guess I wanted to teach her the difference - like something she should drop - like her toys and something she shouldn't be playing with at all by saying no.

As suggested I will try to puppy proof the house. I got her as a surprise V-Day gift so I'm still puppy proofing the whole house. Her living area is puppy proof except for the satellite cords (which I can't move and they run throughout the whole house).

I know Yorkies have a little attitude, but not like this. I'm guess I'm still in shock because prior to this she was a scared puppy that use to always want to stay close to me and now she is a hyper yorkie with an attitude. I love her regardless.

*** At the moment I only have a cam on my laptop and phone. Both very sucky quality to capture her esp. the "Ughhhh" sound she makes lol.
Well, if she was a scared little puppy and now she has an attitude; I would say you have done your job! You've made her feel safe and secure and she knows you aren't going to hurt her if she speaks up. I think you will soon learn to love this attitude; it really does set yorkies apart from other breeds. Of course, not all yorkies have it.
