After reading "How to Brew" by Palmer, I realized that moving the beer from the carboy into the bottling bucket I was overly aggressive. I pumped the siphone and might have aerated the beer to much before bottling it, do you think I ruined my beer?
 
You are probably fine. Most of us are overprotective against oxygenation and poor sanitation (not that proper sanitation should not be striven for), and it kind of takes a big booboo to ruin the beer. Only time will tell though. Wait three weeks and crack one and see how it tastes.
