I have found that 24 MP is plenty for me, too. Even the APS-C 24 MP is adequate for most things, except higher ISO in low light. ISO 1600 and above can benefit from full frame.
I have a Nikon D750 and a D5300 (just upgrading that to a D5500.) I actually prefer the D5300/D5500 for most casual use. The D5300 kit is only about $400 used, (or $500 refurbished) and the depreciation will only run about $100 per year. The Sigma 17-50 2.8 OS is a little redundant with your 24-70, but it is an excellent lens on an APS-C body for only $300. DxO said taht it was the sharpest standard zoom on the D7100.
For a tele, the Nikon 70-200 4.0 VR is an excellent, basic lens. If you shoot in low light a lot, the 2.8 VR II is a necessity. I actually have both. I love the 4.0 for all around use, and I need the 2.8 for events in low light.
Then add the Sigma 150-600, Tamron 150-600, or the Nikon 200-500. And pray taht you don't get obsessed with the super teles!
I desperately miss Colorado. Enjoy!
