Default Size of a puppy?

Hi, I am not sure if this is where I should post this...but I figured breeders would know the most about puppy size. I know it is really hard to guess what an adult yorkie would weigh based on puppy size...and I have checked out the chart. I am just wondering the what the overall opinion is.

The puppy we are going to get was born on Dec. 23 and at about 5-6 weeks she weighs 1lbs and 10 oz. She is 10inches around the middle and from the base of her neck to the base of her tail she is 7 inches. Her mom weighs 7lbs and her dad weighs 4lbs. In your expert opinions how big do you think she will be.

The breeder I am getting her from doesn't think she will be over 5lbs. We were looking for 5-7lbs. According to the growth chart it looks as if she would be at least 6lbs. I am hoping for a bigger rather than smaller yorkie. I know it is like trying to gage children size!?@#

Any thoughts?
