He has my children for this weekend, and has told me that he will not give them back. my son is 2yrs, my daughter is 8mos. This withholding has only just come up this weekend, so I cannot get a hold of my lawyer about this yet.

If you have an agreement for their return, and he fails to live up to it, it will upset you for a short time. It will also eliminate any chance he has of obtaining legal custody unloess he can prove that the children would have been in danger. Notify your lawyer on Monday if the children are not back.
