Soft brakes. S90-V90

Problem solved, I had two different problems happening. First when I changed hoses I guess I didn't get one of the joints tight enough. Then I backed it outside and tried the brakes and must have emptied the master cylinder outside where I couldn't see it in the snow. Then I refilled the reservoir and trapped air in the cylinder. I bench bled the master and then had a friend help me to bleed the lines again. With the master cyl working properly and someone actually pressing the peddle hard, there was enough pressure to show my leak. The fluid sprayed out in such a way that it never touched anything on the car so I completely missed it. Working perfectly now, thanks for the responses, I'm going to get my eyes checked soon!LOL.
