Question Starting a new routine, thoughts on old and new?

Hi guys, new to the forums here but been reading for a few months. Lot's of good information. I tried to piece together different things and came up with this workout:

A Day (legs/lower back):
Squats 3x5 (full warmup sets first)
Leg Press 3x8-12
Leg Extension 3x8-12
Calf Press 3x15
Dead Lift 1x (full warmup sets first)

B Day (chese/tris):
Flat Bench 3x5 (full warmup sets first)
Weighted Dips 3x5
Incline Bench 3x5
Tricep Extension (cables) 3x8-12
Decline Flys 3x8-12
Behind the head tricep extensions using a dumbell, 3x8-12 with 15 pushups between sets

C Day (shoulders/bis):
Military Press 3x5 (full warmup sets first)
Weighted Pull Ups 3x5
Arnold Dumbell Press 3x8-12
Preacher Curls 3x8-12
Seated Row 3x8-12
Shoulder Curls 3x8-12 with dumbell curl sets of 8-12 between sets

And I throw in varying ab exercises each day I lift but man I hate working abs! Basically I tried to mix up higher weight lower rep and lower weight higher rep exercises. Been getting pretty good results but it's been about 3 months now and I'm thinking a change is in order to shock my body. Hoping to start something new in September when I get back from a wedding. My schedule goes: A day, B day, cardio, C day, A day, cardio, B day, C day, cardio, etc. This gives me either 4-5 days between muscle groups.

Basically I thought I would get your thoughts on what I put together myself. Also I think for a couple of months I am going to try to do a dumbell regiment before going back to this in November maybe. Any thoughts on the matter are greatly appreciated!
