If you use 31 days each month, then you need stored procedure to avoid errors.

SQL

CREATE PROCEDURE GetDataFromCurrentMonth()
            @dFrom DATETIME 
--@dFrom = first day of month
AS
BEGIN
    -- last day of month
    DECLARE @dTo DATETIME

    SET @dTo = DATEADD(d,-1,DATEADD(m, 1, @dFrom))

    SELECT *
    FROM tblLogInformation 
    WHERE [date] BETWEEN @dFrom  AND @dTo
END
