AOS replaced. Now Coolant Leak.

I just replaced my AOS because it was due (that was a real b!tch). I did that 3 days ago and tonight when I was driving and the engine was at normal running temperature the read light next to the temp gauge started flashing. I pulled over after a few blocks and noticed there was smoke coming out of the passenger side vent and there is a severe coolant leak near the passenger side rear tire and an even bigger leak from the middle of the car. Turns out the light was flashing because my coolant was nearly completely drained (3 days ago the level was fine) I can't take a look at the engine now because it is dark out but just wondering if anyone has an idea of what it could be?

I was moving coolant hoses out of my way while I was doing the AOS. Could I not have hooked one back up properly?

It is a 2001 base with 87k miles. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
