Anyone from seattle wa?

I am in school for accounting and live in a town a fraction of the size of Seattle and once I graduate I'm thinking of moving to Seattle so I can get more experience and better pay than I would in my own town. Ive already talked to hubby and he would look forward to it cause our deal was once I graduate he can start on his career schooling, which in his case he's hoping to get into cordon blue (I'm sure I spelled that wrong! Lol)

Anyways by that time we will have 4 kids. I am in the process of contacting several accounting firms asking them if in the next few years they would be interested in hiring a rookie out of college and how much I can expect as pay.

What I would like to know is what the cost of living realistically. I found a site that did an analysis of the cost of living but I would like input from real people, especially moms and working moms!
