You're going about it the right way -- buying the best lenses money can buy.
Lenses last a long time. Don't skimp on them. In the future, if you do choose to upgrade your camera, you'll have lenses that will work great with it.
Enjoy! |

One thing to keep in mind if you have plans of upgrading cameras in the future, Nikon is starting to dive into the full frame sensor world which limits the use of DX lenses. So even though they are all nikon glass, choose carefully and be sure that the lens will be compatable with any future camera upgrades.
edit to add: The 17-55 2.8 is an awesome lens. Expensive but worth it, It is a quality build and the optics are awesome.
