Those don't look like Pyxie tadpoles, just my opinion.

I hope they are, if not i'll either try to take them back or if i don't get anywhere with the pet store there is a pond out in my friends pasture i'll release them in.. i dont really need a giant hoppin frog like a american <--(im assuming) bull frog

Which houston area pet store did you get them from? If you got them from S&S or one of the more knowledgeable reptile stores there is a chance they are what they were sold as. Otherwise they probably are not.

Pet's Place on scarsdale blvd in south houston.

I strongly suspect they aren't then, but it is faintly possible I suppose. I have never actually seen giant pixie tads for sale(and I usually have a decent handle on what is available) so I am making an educated guess that that particular shop doesn't know what it is taking about in this case. If it was S&S or Pets A Plenty making such a claim I would say the odds would be much better. Right now I would say the odds are probably somewhere between very slim and none that they are actually giant pixie tads.

They look like a ranid but I don't think they're Pyxicephalus. Not much time to market for tadpoles that metamorphose in less than 3 weeks.
