Can I just recharge the system myself or should I take it into a shop and have it done professionally?

Unless you have a vacuum pump to put the ac system under vacuum for 30 minutes before charging, then take it to a shop. Also, since you've opened the system and it's been open for more than a couple hours it would be a good idea to replace the receiver/drier assembly. The desiccant bag in there has probably burst now.
