Hi all I signed a lease 08/01/2010 and I had a baby since then the place I'm renting from is to small for me and my child, italk to my landlord and he is willing to let me brake our lease agreement so I can move what is the legal form I will need to do so

There is no legal form here. You send the landlord a letter stating:

As per our agreement, I am terminating the lease signed 8/1/2010 on <insert date>. Please arrange to have a walk through so I can return the keys on <insert date>. Please sign and return a copy of this letter indicating your agreement for early termination of the lease.

If the agreement for early termination included a penalty or buyout, include those terms in your letter.

On a side note, you are fortunate the landlord agreed to allow you to break your lease. Considering the dates, you probably knew you were pregnant when you signed the lease. Also, since the lease has only 3 more months to run you could have stuck it out.

There is no form for breaking a lease unless a landlord has one. Be sure to get the agreement in writing. Perhaps he wants you to write it and he will sign it?
You could say 'I (landlord name) allow my tenant (your name) at (address) apt # _____ to end her lease early on (date) at her request, and will not hold her liable for any rents from that date until 8/1/2011. This is contingent on all rents due until the stated ending date being paid. I will not keep her security deposit for rent or penalty reasons.'

Don't think that a landlord who agrees to breaking a lease has to let you just spring a day on him when you find a place, as someone here did. You need to agree on what that move out day will be before you do this, unless he agress to a certain number of days notice. But this is may 9, and you only have June and July left.
