trouble starting in the cold

I have a 99 f350 powerstroke and it has been hard to start the last few mornings, i know that normal with a diesel but its been really bad. Every time i crank it white smoke billows out of the exhaust. Its almost like the glow plugs arent heating up, and they are pretty new. Any ideas???

When you did the plugs did you upgrade the relay?
