I'm gonna go with Leaf Miner. This leaf miner damage looks just like the bottom leaf in your first photo. But you could have a secondary problem too since I don't think leaf miners will eat out big holes like that. It could be anything from Japanese beetles to caterpillars to slugs, where are you located?

Sawfly larvae maybe? They're small green worms indigenous to your area and they eat the fuck out of plants. Could also be a cabbage worm (they don't just eat cabbage). There are a lot of other possibilities but in my inexpert opinion those are the most likely.
