Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

I signed a notarized letter giving my uncle and his wife custody of my infant child. I made a mistake and want to get him back. Can i legally just go take him back? There was no adoption, or court session of any kind.

Go pick up your child (let them know you're coming). If they don't surrender the child, file an application for a writ of habeas corpus.
