Can anyone help me out and tell me what I'm doing wrong here?

I understand how this is supposed to work, but this part is confusing, can anyone see what's wrong with my code?

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <nav>
         <ul></ul>
      </nav>

      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
    </header>
    <section></section>
    <footer>
      <p>&copy; 2013 Nick Pettit.</p>
    </footer>
  </body>
</html>

There is nothing inherently wrong with your code, but you are not fulfilling the exact instructions the task gave you. The tasks specifies that you should add the nav and ul after the link inside the header. You have placed them before the link.

Simply moving them down like this:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>
         <ul></ul>
      </nav>
    </header>
    <section></section>
    <footer>
      <p>&copy; 2013 Nick Pettit.</p>
    </footer>
  </body>
</html>

Will allow you to complete the task.
