Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

My ex girlfriend and I broke up 7 or 8 months ago. She took my son with her to California. I give her $700 a month for him and she wont help me see him and wont let me bring him back to Texas to visit with my family. What do I do? We havent been to a court or lawyer or anything.
