The governing document would be the marital settlement agreement and the final judgment which is really what you have to go by. If she does not comply with the terms, then you can file a motion for contempt against your exwife.

Ms. Demapan's answer is correct. Also, if your agreement or judgment doesn't specify what the exact timeshare is to be--maybe it says something like, "frequent and liberal" or it doesn't specify anything--you may need to go back to court to have a parenting plan set up which defines the specific times when each of you get your daughter.
