After, I added a few ounces of fluid to the master cyl res to top it up.
Now I have a soft pedal that goes to the floor before the brakes engage.
Any thoughts? I know how to bleed the system if I have to, but what a PITA. I can't imagine how I might have gotten air in it changing the pads.

It will go to the floor the first 2-3 times per corner you press until the pistons go back in place. The thinner the pads the more times the pedal will go to the floor. Before you start driving you are supposed to pump the brakes until pedal is hard again.
How many times have you pumped your brakes?
