Sorry, I know it's so frustrating-I felt the same way, like I was inadequate or doing something wrong, but then I remembered, this is a puppy-much like a baby.
We had luck with getting a wire-kennel-cage type crate for night and when we arent there.... we also controlled when they ate/drank and this helped w/the elimination-cut up hotdogs when they go in the right place, whether it be outside or inside really kicked my lucy into gear and we took her outside every half our and asked-do you need to go potty-and eventually she would bark back and now she will come and bark when she needs to go. This took an awful long time-we also had to learn taht she will not poo in a yard that is dirty (must be picked up once a week) and had trouble going outside in the rain or snow-which required extra tone/motivation from us.
My vet told me that if you feed your yorkie twice a day, they will usually eliminate on more of a schedule---we are trying this with our new puppy b/c if she is left all day, she will go and she will snack on it-yuck!
So I wld suggest taking a step back and try and think about blocking them off with you when you are hanging out doing dishes, watching tv-even if you have to leash them in the beginning to keep an eye on them-to try and eliminate the pottying in the floor-and try to give them as much "YOU" time as possible... playing catch-things that will tire them out so when they do go into the kennel, they arent whining and wanting you, they are snoozing !!
good luck and keep us posted -there are quite a few training books out there-i've watched a log of the dog whisperer on natl geographic channel and he has a lot of insight about a dog's needs-you might check it out.
additionally-you have to remember if they whine/cry it might also be for attention and you have to find ways to be sure you dont reward that behavior by ignoring them
