Did you by chance overfill the oil? Check on the oil dipstick, you don't want to be above the fill line. I don't want to jump the gun and say "white smoke from tailpipe = bad head gasket," so monitor this closely, keep an eye on the temp gauge. Check all your fluid levels, if you overfilled the oil you'll have to loosen the oil pan bolt and drain some oil then refill it to proper level.
