We are going to thank soon. I will stay for 90 days, my wife will return after 30 days. What kind of visa should I apply for? Hoping to apply for an additional 30 days after my 60 days. What kind of visa will make all that work?
Answer summary
For your stay in Thailand, you should apply for a single-entry tourist visa (TR), which will initially grant you a 60-day stay upon entry. As you approach the end of this period, you can apply for a 30-day extension at the local immigration office. If your wife is Thai or you are over 50 years old, you may be eligible for a NON-O visa, but the tourist visa is recommended for your situation.

get a single entry tourist visa via the online web-portal thru the thai consulate in your country. That visa is valid for entry to thailand for 90 days from the date it's issued, when you enter you will get stamped in for 60 days and you can take one 30 day extension on that at the immigration office serving the area where you stay

The single entry tourist visa will give you 60 days and you can extend by 30. Your wife may qualify for 30 day visa exemption on entry, depending on her passport.

You’re going to apply before you leave to go. It’s a (TR) tourist visa. Then as your first 60 days gets near the end you go to immigration and pay to extend another 30 days. If your wife is leaving in 30 or less. She will get 30 days when you land. Immigration does sometimes want to see the accommodations you’ve booked.
