Take the caliper off, fit the wheel then slide it on !!
This usually works. It always easier to fit a caliper onto a disc than a disc into a caliper.
If you cant manipulate the caliper back onto the discs, like bonnie says, just prise open the pads with a screwdriver (careful not to gouge chunks out the pad material) until you get started.
As long as you haven't pumped the lever while the wheel was off, they don't usually need pressing back in too far.
Don't worry if its a little tight going on, it will settle itself out after a few miles of riding....
