Your precise situation is a bit unclear. Yes, text mesages MIGHT constitute an "agreement," if terms are reasonably certain, but normally such agreements do not have much legal effect if you are talking about setting up (or modifying) a court order regarding custody and visitation. If the existing order is not sufficient, you might need a modification of the custody order; for details about how that works, click here. Your best bet is probably to confer with a family law specialist.
