Categories in a list: Empty state or hide?

Display options

Hoping for some feedback on these two list displays for empty states. The list is categorised by Month, Year and based on data, we can expect to have about 40 reservations over a 6 month period.

Option 1 shows the month (December 2017) with an empty state message while Option 2 will not display that month at all.

Personally, I am leaning towards option 2 as I think it is neater since you wouldn't have to define how many months into the future to show, for example, would you have to show all the way up to December 2018 with empty states.

I would like to see if anyone had any benefits of the Option 1 approach over Option 2?
