Hey,
You don't need to work your abs to see them.
Dropping your bodyfat alone is enough for you to see/feel them.
However, if you want to build peaks and valleys in your midsection, squats and pushups hit the abs indirectly, thus there isn't enough stress on the muscle fibers to cause hypertrophy.
I recommend training abs directly at least once a week, knowing that you practice yoga.
Janet Jackson swears by low repetitions (around 12) while Britney Spears trains her abs every single day with high repetitions.
I don't like Britney, so I will go for Janet
In my humble opinion, I would recommend that you keep on doing what you are doing, plus hit your abs once or even twice a week.
I hope this helps.
