Default what's happening with my red dwarf ?

Hi everyone,
I have a small dwarf red banana and I noticed that the leaves are starting to get very tiny instead of getting bigger like they should. What is happening?
The plant is in the house since November.

I've had my banana do that also in the past when small. I definitely think it has to do with the change in sunlight. The new leaves look even healthier than the old ones so I don't think it's a bad sign and I think it will grow fine. Keep us updated!
