I think you're looking for the impossible camera!

For family photos (including sports) with real '3D pop': Canon FF DSLR.

For wildlife and birding: Canon APS-C DSLR.

For general carry-around fun and a bit of everything: Fuji X.

I know I'll miss the DSLR in some circumstances, but for me it's more important to have a camera that I'll carry more often. The Fuji will miss some shots for sure, but not as many as the Canon will while it's sitting under the bed...

Thanks for your comments! Yes.. I need to do something with the blog again. Maybe the Fuji will kick some new life into it!

All I want a FF with small and high IQ lenses like in the 100 year old Leica M system, but modern with fast and accurate AF like the X-Pro2, a 50 MP FF sensor with no AA filter and best possible DR, a X-Pro2 hybrid viewfinder with a X-T2 4K EVF for longer lenses, integrated GPS as in my 6D, a battery lasting +600 photos with internal GPS on for 18 hours and all this for 1600USD. Is this really to much to ask for? Oh I nearly forgot a fully articulated screen to for filming in 4K and the mandatory Facebook selfies. ;))

I will have a serious talk with my finance minister (Wife). Humbly hoping to get her most gracious approval to release some minor family funds needed for acquiring a small and elegant X-Pro2 and one or possibly two fast, small and elegant lenses for the purpose of a general carry-around, fun and a bit of everything camera as a complement to my pre historic kit of the soon to be extinct DSLR species of the old Triassic period named the Kwanon 6D and dinosaur like big and heavy zooms, haha
