Bottom Up Hierarchical Design

mmov

I was reading through Cadence tutorial on how to create a bottom up design i.e. starting with low level board schematic then creating a higher level schematic, however I'm not able to do this properly. What ends up happening is that I  create a single hierarchy branch, with all my schematic pages below it. 

I have my complete schematic where I have everything my board will be using microprocessor (MP), DRAM, Flash etc. and I want to create 2 blocks: 'CPU' (containing the MP circuitry) and 'MEMORY' (with DRAM and Flash circuitry).
How can I create these individual symbols and include them all as blocks on the higher level diagram, after I completed my schematic?
