Standard solution, without dependences

>>> from datetime import datetime,timedelta
>>> month = 1 #jan
>>> day = 1
>>> year = datetime.now().year #if you want current year, year's value otherwise 
>>> dt = datetime(year,month,day)
datetime.datetime(2014, 1, 1, 0, 0)
>>> if month==12:
...     year += 1
...     month = 0
>>> dt_end_month = datetime(year,month+1,day) - timedelta(days=1)
>>> dt_end_month
datetime.datetime(2014, 1, 31, 0, 0)

Once you get datetime object, you can print it with datetime.strftime function

This is trivial in arrow (you will have to install arrow using pip install arrow)

import arrow
a = arrow.get(month=5)
print a.ceil("month")
print a.floor("month")
