I'm in the same,situation. However, I'm forced to get the glass first. I'm waiting for the Canon 5d mark iv to come out. I just purchased the Canon 70-200 f2.8L, next will be the 24-70 f2.8L. I have Canon 100 f2.8L, Sigma 50mm, and Sigma 85mm. I have the Canon 70d,currently and I love it. Good luck in your,decision. Let us know what you decide.
Given your situation, I'd do the same. Those two L zooms are part of the holy zoom trinity pros rely on for most of their work. They're really great workhorses.
Treat yourself to a monopod and an anti-carpal tunnel syndrome wrist strap or brace, though! I know several pros who have suffered that injury through repeated use of long lenses, particularly the 70-200 f/2.8s, hand-held. I used to use a Nikon F3 with motor drive and an 80-200, and that was a similar beast. I'd work all day long with it and come home with an aching right wrist and forearm. I got the brace after the second all-day job...
