Workout Routine help!

Okay, once again I need some help! Due to my situation I do not have access to a gym, I have minimal weights in my basement, but I make them work. My following exercises include: (Now keep in mind that I do not have all the technical terms for the exercise right, so bare with me)

bicepts:
-standing barbell curl
-sitting dumbbell curl

core:
-standard crunches
- decline weighted sit-up
- laying down bicycle

leg:
- dumbbell lunges
- dumbbellcalf raises
-wall sit
-dumbbell squat

chest:
-dumbbell flys
-dumbbell pullovers
-dumbbell bench press
-clap push ups

compounds:
-pull-ups
- barbell bent over rows
-deadlift
-standing military press
- barbell up-right rows
- dips
-squats


Now, I am having difficulty putting these exercises into 3 sections. I know compounds are very important, so should I be doing all the them with each workout day? Should I do half of them? Should I split them up? I was wondering if somebody here could tell me which compound exercises I should use with each body group, so I can organize my workouts. Or are there some exercises that I should just not do?

Now, if there are any more workouts you guys can think of, please feel free to let me know. Keep in mind I have about 80lbs of weights, one ez curl barbbell and two dumbbells. Right now I am trying to bulk up a bit, so that is why you do not see any cardio in my routine.

Thanks in advance!

take your compound list, add squats and bench press. That gives you 8 exercises. If you did 6 of them, 3 days a week it would be a pretty good start.
 
Well, I do not have a bench press, nor do I have the weights to be able to do a bench press (like i said all I have is about 80-90lbs). And I forgot about squats, sorry. I've been trying to perfect my form on squats, I'll edit that.
 
So I've worked out my exercises. Here's what I got.

a) bicepts (what I listed)
core (what I listed)
5-6 compounds (pull-ups, romanian deadlift, military press, bent over row and up-right row)

b) chest (what I listed)
7 compounds once again (dumbbell bench, military press, bent over and upright row, dips, push-ups, squats)

c) legs (what I listed)
core (what I listed)
4 compunds (squats, rows, deadlift and maybe military press)


Now I will be doing these workouts with a day rest inbetween, will that be enough downtime to let me rest? Even if I am doing the same compound exercise for my next workout? Is there anything you guys would change
 
Yeah, that's enough rest. I'd order them differently and get all the compounds up front. You don't want to do your leg routine and then have to do squats in the middle. Also, that way when you're beat and realize that the deadlifts just kicked your ass, the exercises that either go unworked or worked without the required power are the less important ones anyhow. Specifically, skipping calf raises = no big whoop; skipping squats = big whoop.
