I haven't seen a post like this and am interested to see how diverse this community is!
I'm Greek and German and my DH is Venezuelan, Chilean, and Spanish
Those would be nationalities, not races.

Serious mutts. Scottish, Italian, Lebanese + German, Norwegian, and Swedish
I have relatives on my side of the family who pretty much get strip searched and anal probed for daring to go near an airport, and most of my husbands family looks like a vintage poster for the Aryan Race. Seeing what ends up coming out me will be very interesting. Family members are already placing bets.
Im Irish, German, and Native American. My husband is Japanese and Okinawan. We're very excited to see what our "flavor of the world" baby will look like. My guess is awesome.
Eta because I found a way to fit "u" in American, which in turn, felt very unAmerican.
I'm a first generation American, half Vietnamese and half white (English/Irish mix), and DH's ancestry is German/Polish. I know babies are cute regardless of ethnicity, but I really hope mine has a little Asian in it!
I'm French, Scottish, Italian, Dutch & a touch of american indian (we don't know the specifics). My husband is English, Irish, Scottish, German, & Lithuanian. AKA kiddo is a mutt.
My maternal great grandmother came over to the states from Scotland, and Dad's side is originally British, but they've been here since about the colonies, so lord only knows. I take after the Scottish side for sure. The hubs is Scottish and Irish. Our poor kid is going to be the whitest white kid on the block! And ginger, I hope. The potential is there.
While my husband and I were both born and raised in Canada, our baby will be half Filipino (my side), quarter Scottish and quarter British (his side). While my genes tend to be more dominant, It would be neat to see a dark haired, fair skinned, blue eyed child
JimBobCooter Awesome! I've totally been shot down for using it as a legitimate name, so I'm enjoying using it for baby's nickname! Since we're Team Green, I don't want to call the kid "it" till June! I so adore my Scottish heritage and I thought it was just great. I do get to use Dougan as the middle name if Fergus does end up being a boy, though!
So funny you should ask. My husband and I recently did DNA Tribes, and I found out I'm almost 100% Nigerian, but I identify as Black/African-American. My hubby's 50% Spanish (from Spain in Europe) and 50% German-Austrian (he identifies as White/Caucasian).
Great thread! I love the diversity in all the posts so far!
I am half Vietnamese and half white... (because I have no idea what to break that into lol) and DH has French/Canadian and some Scottish/British... not quite sure how much of those though. We are both dark complected with dark hair and eyes.
Interesting! DH is half-Filipino/half-Jewish (and yes, Jewish isn't exactly an ethnicity, but that's how DH self-identifies, so I go with it), and I'm an American mutt (Irish and British, mostly).
There is pretty much no way to predict what this kid will look like. I'm assuming awesome, of course.
DH is German, French, English, and Irish. I'm not totally sure what all I'm mixed with. I know I'm Yugoslavian (Croatian), and English. I think there's also some German and Italian in there.

I'm half Italian and half Czech. DH is 3/4 Italian, and the remainder is English German whatever (American mutt). Both of us were born and raised in the US. Culturally, his family is very, very Italian, where I grew up more with the Czech traditions and food and whatnot.
My baby will be half Chinese and half Serbian. My parents have accepted that they might not get a full chinese looking grandchild. The other kids are half white australian. And the other is half Bangladeshi! All gorgeous mixes. Can't wait to see how my kids will look!

We both have dark hair and eyes, so I'm betting that baby will come out with blonde hair and blue eyes just to freak DH out.

Finnish, Belgian, Irish, German, Italian
I am German, Irish, Italian, Hungarian, and Polish. DH is Irish, Scottish, Norweigan, and English.
So basically a crap shoot on looking that any specific ethnicity.
