As for how big your new girl will be, well given the size of the mom and dad, my guess would be this. She could take after the mom and be 10 pounds, take after the dad and be 3 1/2 pounds or somewhere in between. You may know more about her size when she's about 8 weeks old. Make sure she stays with her mom till she's at least 12 weeks old.
Here is a chart that may help you later on. http://www.yorkiepassion.com/growthchart.htm

Thank You and I'm sorry for your loss as well.
The chart was right on the money with what the breeder said she would be. 4 lbs. As I said, size doesn't really matter to me. I would like one that has similar coloring to Peanut.
The grandfather and greatgrandfather to these pups were both very small.
I've seen pictures of 3 or 4 generations leading up to these puppies
