Hello just have a question if 4 year + 1 day rule would apply to my situation

 

Green card approval: July 10, 2011

Travel abroad from July 02, 2011 to July 15, 2013 (2 years and 14 days; with Reentry permit)

Stayed in US: July 16, 2013- Sept. 13, 2013 (1 month, 29 days; or 60 days)

Outside of USA: Sept. 14, 2013 to Dec. 07, 2013: Outside of US (2 months 24 days) (Had Re-entry permit, but did not use it) 

Stayed in US : Dec. 08, 2013- Dec. 18, 2013 (11 days)

Outside of USA: Dec. 19, 2013 to April 04, 2014: Outside of US (3 months 17 days) (Had Re-entry permit, but did not use it) 

Stayed in USA: April 05, 2014 onwards without any travel outside of USA

 

Considering the 4 year + 1 day rule, I will be eligible to apply on July 17, 2017 which will be 4 year + 1 day after my return to US (July 16, 2013). However, I did go outside of US for two trips, one of 2 months and 24 days and other of 3 months 17 days.  Will those two trips interrupt my residency? During this period I was employed by American Firm outside of US and filed my taxes all those years I was out of country.
