Try the search- there are TONS of articles about the correct weight. There is also no correct answer to this question. It depends on the breed, age, frame size, sex, bloodline,etc... too many variables unless we see a picture of the dog and even then it is still hard.

A chart I found online said she should weigh 60 pounds by now. She's only 40. I can't see her ribs so I think it's a healthy weight. I just wondering if her frame is smaller than normal. Or if her bones are still growing? Thanks for the in put.

Every dog is different, nobody ever gave me a straight answer to this, but the general answer I was getting was...
1 year : close to adult size
2 years : starts to fill out
3 years : full maturity
My boy is 16 months old and 67lbs - he's not gonna be a huge dog, he'll probably top out at 75lbs, but he seems to have stuck right around 65-67lbs for the last 4 or 5 months so I'm not expecting much growth anymore. I think he was around 40-45lbs at 7 months. As long as your dog looks healthy I wouldn't worry about it too much - ignore what people will no doubt tell you - I get the "you should feed him more, he looks skinny" crap all day long - he wont eat more if I wanted him to and he looks perfectly healthy.
sometimes it depends on if you are giving your puppy large breed puppy food or not large breed puppy food doesnt have as much calcium in it and they wont grow as quickly its suppose to help prevent hip dysplasia. but every dog will grow diffrently
