Someone is now giving me a pretty blue egg, think it could be her? Also what breed do you think?

Definitely Easter Egger/ Ameraucana. I just recently got chicks at the beginning of summer and one of my Ameraucana look a lot like this one!
 
One of the most common poultry misconceptions is the distinction between a true Ameraucana and an Easter Egger. In feed stores, Easter Eggers are often mislabeled as "Ameraucanas" even when they aren't. EEs do indeed have some Ameraucana in their background, allowing for the colored eggs, but real, honest to goodness Ameraucanas are hard to find and very expensive. I recently had the privilege to order a couple true Ameraucanas, and I was lucky for the hatchery to send both a blue and a black (hatchery choice). They are so beautiful!

The Blue Ameraucana pictured is in front.
