They are 1.5 yrs old and they have never been bred before so I was wondering what babies I might/will get?

Since grey is dominant color you will get normal grey babies unless dad is split to something else. Which if you don't know now, you may find out when you get something other than a grey baby! here is what you can expect from your pair now:
male offspring:
100% grey split to X2 cinnamon pearl
female offspring:
100% grey
if you get something other than greys then you can figure that your male is split to whatever mutation baby you have.
Hope that helps :)
MORE ADDED: YOU WILL NOT GET A WHITE FACE FROM THESE 2 UNLESS DAD IS SPLIT TO WHITEFACE. WHITEFACE IS RECESSIVE AND BOTH PARENTS MUST DONATE A WF GENE FOR THE BABY TO BE WHITEFACE.

A whiteface dinnamon pearl gray. Who knows till it happens. No one can predict what you will get if you mix them. Just try and see what you get, then you will know.
