Menu not adding the right items

You’ve defined your menu location as header_navigation. Use the menu location slug header_navigation in your call to wp_nav_menu(), not the description (nav):

wp_nav_menu(array(
    'theme_location' => 'header_navigation', 
    'container' => false, 
    'menu_class' => 'nav', 
));
