Wait for it to cool. Remove the radiator cap, is the radiator full to the top? If not there was air in the cooling system refill radiator and overflow tank then face the car up hill if you can. run the engine until it's as warm as it will get then shut the car off and let cool a little check foe leaks if you don't see any double check the coolant in the radiator if OK recheck the oil and head down the hill. This is not unusual after changing a water pump.
