Should i get new chicks or wait?

Just because you have some breeds that are more likely to go broody than some other breeds is no guarantee that the ones that you have actually will. I've had several of breeds that "go broody" that never did. Pullets often wait until they are a year old to go broody. Or many of yours may go broody at any time. You just don't know.

I personally do not like the idea of just two chicks. If one dies then you have a single chick. Odds are they will both live until they both grow up and merge with the flock but you never know.

If you get chicks from that hatch you will not know if any are pullets or cockerels. Does that matter to you?

It is entirely your call on what to do. I suspect you have already made up your mind are are really looking for affirmation, not advice. Have fun however you decide.
yea you right they probably wouldn't go broody over the summer since their hatch-day is in august

I'm going to celebrate it on the younger chicks hatch-day (August 19th) since we don't know the others exact days since the chick were from someones farm and the older ones were from atwoods
