task 2 of 3 for creating a list inside your navigation element is not working, I have the correct code every time wtf.

It says on my screen that the first task didnt go through, when i go back to the first task it goes through and then task two does not and repeats saying "task one did not go through"

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <nav>
          <ul>
            <li>Portfolio</li>
            <li>About</li>
            <li>Contact</li>
          </ul>
        <nav>
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
    </header>
    <section></section>
    <footer>

Hey Timothy Sweeney You didn't close your nav element. <nav> </nav>

Also I believe the lesson 1 of 3 asks you to put the <ul> unordered list below the <a> anchor link but above the closing </header> element.
