Back to Canon w/ t3i... a couple lens questions

So after a foray into Pentax with the K-x (my first dslr was the 350d), I am back to Canon for greater lens selection, lower cost and better video performance. I just picked up the T3i kit from Adorama w/ the 15-55mm is II and the 55-250mm is for $800. I am now wondering about lenses. I am mostly wondering about the performance of the lenses I purchased. On the K-x I had the Sigma 17-70mm and loved it. I had the "nifty-fifty" for my 350D and loved it. However, I would ideally like to keep these two lenses if the performance is decent for a hobby photographer who will be taking lots of pictures of his kids (so indoors too). I am also considering picking up the nifty-fifty again.
Thanks for reading/ any advice and I am GLAD to be back to Canon!!!
