Kiwi are a wonderful fruit to grow here in the Pacific Northwest. They do require a bit more management than some other fruits, but the results well worth the effort. I would make double sure that you did indeed accquire both a male and a female plant. The flower on the male plant only produces pollen the first 2-3 days after opening. It is critical that the plants flower at the same time. They are dependent on insects for pollination. When they bloom this year make sure they bloom at the same time and that you see bees on the flowers. If not, they are not getting pollinated. I suggest that you look into acquiring mason bees to help with that effort. Here’s a link to the Home Orchard Society page on Mason Bees.
For more information that you ever dreamed of needing about kiwis, here is a link to an OSU Extension publication, Growing Kiwi Fruit. Happy fruiting.

I have never seen any blooms on any of them when I bought them they said male and female so I don't know what they really are
It's possible that they just require some pollination. Try attracting some bees to the area with some flowers
I have bees around I have fruit trees, blackberries, strawberries, flower but the kiwi has never bloomed
