Poll: what is your LO's heritage?

I find geneology/heritage to be fascinating....what's your heritage? I could just say American, but what fun is that? Since my son has a different "donor" we have a mixed bag.
My boy is:
Irish, English, German, Polish, French, Russian, Greek, Mexican, Saco Indian and Apache Indian.
My girl is:
Irish, English, German, Polish, French and Italian. Sicilian to be specific.

Re: Poll: what is your LO's heritage?
Me: 50% Greek. The other 50 is Hungarian, Ukranian, Polish, and some kind of american indian.
SO: 50% Filipino. Other 50% is pretty much a big mix.
Pretty much DS is 25% Greek, 25% Filipino, and then 50% mutt.. haha. I'm curious to see if the what traits are going to be dominant. I look like I could be 100% Greek.
I'm 50% Italian (both my parents are 1/2 Italian) and the other half is a mixed bag (English, Irish French and who the heck knows what else).
DH is mostly German on both sides.
Me: 50 french, 35 Irish, 15 Norwegian
DH: 50 German, Scottish, Swedish, Native American, Amish
DH is a whole bunch of things, these are the ones i remember!
1999- Dx Prolactinoma
8-25-2012 - Lucas born via C-section at 38 Weeks 2 days
DS is 50% Mexican (from SO, who is 100% Mexican - first generation American) and 50% the mixed bag that I am; Finnish, German, Belgian, and English.
SCANDAL!
Me: Irish, German, Norwegian.
DH: Mexican.
She got most of my coloring (lighter hair and blue eyes), it'll be fun to see if/when she changes!
LO: 25% Italian, 25% Irish (Me), 50% Portuguese (DH)
I am 50% Mexican (mom) and 50% Ecuadorian (dad). I was born in Texas.
Dh is 100% Mexican. Born & raised is Cali, but from Mexican parents born in Mexico.
So DS's are 75% Mexican and 25% Ecuadorian. But our ancestry is from Spain. Thats why we're fair skinned with dark hair.

I'm Irish, Romanian, Cherokee, and Israeli

~after 34 cycles we finally got our 2nd little bundle of joy~
My IF blog
So my kiddos are a big mix.
DS2 8/21/12
DD 9/26/14
Baby #4 edd 2/11/19
ME: mom is: Canadian and Irish, english and ukraniun and dad is: 100% italian both his parents from Italy)
DH: his mom is lebanise/Canadian and his dad is from Italy
My little Bear is English, Irish, Welsh, Scottish, and a little
Italian from me.
He is Polish, Slavic, Welsh, Choctaw Indian, Cherokee Indian, and Chickasaw Indian from his dad.
So far the Slavic/Polish side is really showing itself.
I am a mutt. I know I'm French, English, German, Italian and probably a billion other things. DH is 1/4 Mexican, and a mix of German, Scottish, etc, etc.
So DD is 1/8 Mexican and the rest is a total mix.
Here's a question: Should I check the Hispanic box on forms for her? What's the statue of limitations on that? I know she's only an 1/8, but it's more than anything else and she has a Spanish last name. I don't know the proper protocol here!
My Husband's background is English, Scandinavian and Scottish.
Me: Native American and German
DH: Italian and German
So, the boys are German, Italian and Native American
I'm German, English, Austrian, and Italian
DH is Italian, Greek, and Polish
so basically our kids are just a big mix of things. Also, I met a woman from Ireland recently and this subject came up. She kind of laughed when I mentioned nationality. She thought it was funny that Americans are always talking about what nationality they are, when in her eyes we're all just American. I tried explaining how most of our grandparents/great grandparents came from other countries. She said even if her parents had come from another country to Ireland she would still just consider herself Irish.
DH is irish, choctaw indian, and a little german.. Other than his lighter coloring he looks native
Our kids look portuguese and native american I've been told. High cheek bones, almond eyes, curly hair and such.
DD1 has a slightly different heritage from her "donor" only in that he was 25 cherokee indian. She looks exactly like me as a child, but she looks native too.
I live in Ireland, and this is very true. I always say Greek and Irish when people ask me what my background is in the US but would always say I am American when here in Ireland. My kids will say they are Irish when asked, which is weird to me!

I am Swedish, Italian, German, and a little Norwegian
H is British and French Canadian, possibly with some German as well (his family has been in the U.S. forever)
DD's name (Elsa) is a name in every single one of those languages, which I think is pretty cool.
