Yes, she can be bigger. I think the only way to really, really be able to make an edjecated guess is to go back through the lines and look at sizes. They can have "throwbacks" where the puppies will be the size of ancestors that were larger.
This is a really good growth chart that many use to estimate adult weight. However, you will hear how some puppies chart at one weight and end up at another, so it is not guaranteed by any means. One of my boys charted at 5lbs, and is now 16 months and 5.5lbs, and the other one charted between 2.5and 3 lbs, and is now 2.8lbs at 14 months.
