The key now is to monitor the engine coolant temperature with a scan tool and see when and if the cooling fan kicks in. If that is all in line with specs, the next might be if you ran it out of coolant at some point, you might have done slight damage to cylinder head gaskets.
But you have to make sure it is just not a stuck or lazy thermostat.
Pipe O-rings above water pump are also notorious to leak so I always replace those together with the water pump job.
