It is hard to know for sure, the tiny parents make me think probably less than 5, plus you say 'chubby', that can come from so much milk, really better to look at the feet and ankle-bones to figure size, but only an expert can do that and even still can be wrong, The family line is small, you are falling in love with the puppy, I bet God will give you the strength even if she is an ounce or two over (which I don't think she will be, but can't say for sure!).
