With an electric mixer, or by hand, mix in eggs, shortening, and white flour. Mix until smooth. By hand, mix in whole wheat flour.

Cover mixing bowl with a towel and put in a warm place. Let dough rise until doubled in size.

If you are not going to bake bread soon, refrigerate dough until you are ready to bake it. When you are ready to bake the bread, preheat oven to 375 degrees.
