Modifying the object

Not 100 percent sure what I'm doing wrong here. I took away the 'var' keyword from firstName and lastName and made a property. I'm not sure what else to do. I keep getting an error message.

object.js 
var contact = {
  fullName: function() {
   firstName : "Andrew",
   lastName : "Chalkley",
    console.log(firstName + " " + lastName);
  }
}

You're close. It's wanting you to move the firstName, and lastName keys outside of the fullName method.

var contact = {
  firstName: "Andrew",
  lastName: "Chalkley",
  fullName: function() {
    console.log(this.firstName + " " + this.lastName);
  }
}
