One of the ancestors of BlogPost, via Displayable, is TimeStamped ( https://bitbucket.org/stephenmcd/mezzanine/src/6e18580343fa5f4b9221349e11a099a28510bed8/mezzanine/core/models.py?at=default#cl-172) which covers created on and modified on. BlogPost itself records the user that created it so the only missing functionality would be modified by. To get modified on you could use a combination of field injection and possibly monkey patch the BlogAdmin or just write your own BlogAdmin, unregister the old one and register your new one.
