Dude, cut out out the decline bench and the flies. A dip is a way better strength exercise. You should be able to get 10 deep reps with your body weight no problem. Hitting those harder is going to help you a lot.

Your bench weight looks good for now. The weight increment/rep curve looks good... maybe a little steep? Hard to tell. But I'd say you're hitting that one about right. Maybe put a little more emphasis on the workload on the last sets.

Also, how do you do a seated military press with less than a bar? Heh, this is one of those terminology things I hate. I'm assuming you just mean a seated dumbbell press. A seated military press implies a barbell. Though I'd be fine if you called it a seated military dumbbell press (to differentiate, say, between that and a seated arnold press)
