Hi Jose and welcome,
I posted a response the other day but the site crashed and it got lost.
I've had a look at your pics and you've got some nice stuff. Keep it up.
You don't necessarily need a lot of gear to produce good images. What you do need is a good eye and lots of practice. You will want to buy more equipment (we all do!), but I suggest you let your progress guide you rather than just collecting kit for the sake of it. If you find yourself developing an interest in close-up stuff, think about a decent macro lens. Alternatively, if it's landscapes then you'll want a wide-angle. Try to avoid the "Upgrading for the sake of upgrading" trap. The D90 is a perfectly serviceable camera. Sure, it's a few years old and there's more bells & whistles on the latest machines, but few of them will give you better pictures.
The 18-200 is a great 'walking about' lens. It gives you a pretty good wide angle and a creditable telephoto with everything in between. Stick with that for the time being, Likewise the SB700 is a perfectly good speedlight. In time you may want to try some studio work and perhaps invest in a studio strobe system, but for the moment the SB700 should be adequate.
I don't think you need to burden yourself with lots of kit you may never use, let your photography be your guide.
Good luck
