    It’s not just the parents, it goes back farther. some genes seem to be “stronger” than others. Everyone in my family has a “beaky” nose except me. I have a short round upturned nose. It’s my great-grandmother’s nose (from photos). One of my 5 cousins has the same nose, the rest all have beaky noses. So it can go back several/many generations. You don’t always look only like one parent or the other.

    I’d say there is a 50/50 chance either way.
    I heard somewhere that they have their fathers height & mother weight…
    Doubt thats true.
