Default question about coat

Yorkie coats really confuse me. I've read about silky coats, hard silky coats, cottony coats, modified silky coats, wiry coats, etc. I would like to know what type of coat Yoni has but he is only 10 weeks old so it's kind of difficult to tell. Here's what I can tell you...

-When I take a picture of him, his eyes flash blue
-You can already see light gray coming in on his head and he has white on his chest
-His father was very light-colored. Not parti, just very light.
-His fur is soft, but seems kind of thick. I'm not sure if this is typical of all baby coats, and I really don't have anything to compare it to so maybe it really isn't that thick.
-His fur feels more like cotton than silk right now, but he is only a baby.

I'd just like to know so I can get an idea of what I'm in for. I know that cottony coats require a lot more grooming in order to prevent matts. His parents were both cut short at the time, and I completely forgot to ask what their coats were like long (I just sent an email about it so hopefully I'll know soon).


Here is a picture of him....
