Hi Cliff,
Most medium sized breeds like a lab reach their maximum height at about 10 months or so, and mature weight at about 18 months. There isn't a recommended weight for labs (a show-bred males height should be about 22" at the shoulder) but it should be right for the dog - ie you should be able to feel the ribs without squidging through layers of fat.
Hope this helps.
:)
