A:
This is a situation where you definitely need a competent attorney experienced in family law in the county where your case is pending.
A default judgment is usually only available when a party, after being properly served with a lawsuit, fails to file an answer and displays conscious indifference to defending the lawsuit. It would typically not be warranted for simple disobedience to a court order, although you may have other remedies.
Several of the facts you mention in your question could be helpful to you in a custody case. The fact you travel for work presents a challenge as you will need to show the ability to provide competent adult supervision of your children in a stable environment.
