one option is follows. not sure if it is correct:

1. A jointly-filed full year return for NJ covering income earned in NJ and CA.
2. A nonresident CA return for myself, covering the income I earned in CA (July through December).

Another option is:

1. A full year return for NJ for my wife

2. A resident return for myself for NJ (Jan to June)

3. A resident return for myself for CA (July to Dec)

are both correct? Thanks a lot!
