FWIW, one concern is that a USCIS Examiner may 'delay' your processing, where it sees extensive stays abroad in the year before filing. Nevertheless, as stated, if there is no delay,then you should be okay.

Thank you so much for your dedication.
I have more question about the 90 days residence requirement prior to filing. I already established CA residency a year ago and I am keeping it. I might change address but I will stay in the same county (Orange County). After my second trip which is 4 months long I will come back to the USA and file N-400. Do I have to come back and wait 90 days to file or I can file right away?

That depends. You should keep the previous address in the County that you had prior to your return. Otherwise, this 'may' complicate matters. Regrettably, this can be costly, so you will need to maintain a U. S. Address in Orange County while you are away. I hope that this helps.
