Is this the proper charge that I am supposed to get? Seems to me that I should have more or that it was more? Thanks.

Your voltage regulator should regulate the charging voltage to 13.8-14.2 volts. Anything less than that is too low.

13.9 is normal (give or take a couple)
If your seeing 12.1 get your alternator check that's to low
