Here's what I do for my Bullitt: One Kryptonite Fuhgeddaboudit (small as you can get), and a set of Pinhead lock set (locking skewers for wheels and locking seat post collar). A slim Tile under the cargo deck sealed with 3M Heavy Duty Packing tape.
With the pinhead lock set, you only need to lock the frame with the Fuhgeddaboudit U-lock (typically I lock at one of the lateral vertical braces parallel to the head tube, or if I have the big cargo box for the kids on the front, will lock around one of the rear seat stays).

I have always been happy with Joe blow pumps, as for locks I personally like the Abus locks, other popular brands will be kryptonite locks.
Here's the Abus lock that I have it is small so either pick up some Pinheads or a cable to cover your wheels.
As a supplement to your locking strategy, get yourself some of these.
They're great, much more convenient than running a cable through your front wheel and probably more secure. Seat one is not enough though, since it doesn't secure the saddle to the seatpost.
