Welcome to Yorkie Talk. We will all be looking forward to seeing your new baby. How old will your puppy be when you get her? Do you know her projected weight?
Before you bring your puppy home find out from the breeder what kind of feeding routine the puppy is on. Just the stress from going to a new home often causes puppies to not eat much at first. I recommend keeping the puppy on the same food it is used to for at least a week and then you will want to switch the puppy over to the new food slowly. The breeder should provide you with a little bit of food when you get your puppy.
You will need a safe area for the puppy for the times you or your gf are busy and not able to watch the puppy. I recommend either gating off an area like the kitchen or get a exercise pen for the pup so you can place his bed, food and water in the pen
Make sure you get his vaccination record. Until he has had all his vaccinations you will not want to take him outside in areas where other dogs have been.
Best of luck with the new pup.
