This changing pattern is caused by the angle of the sunlight hitting objects, with longer shadows occurring when the light source is lower in the sky.

Do shadows get longer until it reaches its longest point and then it will start getting shorter?
Shadows get shorter as the sun get higher up in the sky and as the sun goes down shadows will get longer so shadows get shorter in the morning and get longer in the afternoon. Also, as the year progresses, the sun's angle in the sky at the same point in each day changes, due to the 23.5 degree tilt of the Earth's axis. In the northern hemisphere, for instance, shadows get longer and longer (again, at the same time of day) until the winter solstice around December 21st, then they start getting shorter and shorter.
