Kat393, That's actually pretty normal for greys to first get darker before they get grey.
It's also normal for a dark foal to be born very dun-looking, and that's most ovious with dark bays and black foals. A grey foal will usually be born without those typical foal markings and will have an 'adult' color.
Here's a good example of how a grey first gets darker before it turns grey.
2 days old:
4 months old:
3 years old:
And here's an example of a newborn (couple of hours old in the picture) foal that will definately turn grey:
