Before LOKEN, BOWMAN, and GRUENDER, Circuit Judges.
                          ____________

PER CURIAM.
       Craig Morgan Smith appeals the district court’s1 order affirming the denial of
supplemental security income. For reversal, Smith argues that the Administrative
Law Judge (ALJ) erred in finding that Smith failed to show current deficits of
adaptive functioning as required by Listing 12.05C to meet the listed impairment for
intellectual disability. See 20 C.F.R. Pt. 404, subpt. P, app. 1 § 12.05C. Following
careful review of the parties’ submissions and the record before us, we conclude that
substantial evidence in the record as a whole supports the ALJ’s finding. See Phillips
v. Colvin, 721 F.3d 623, 625 (8th Cir. 2013) (standard of review). Accordingly, the
judgment of the district court is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
                         ______________________________

      The Honorable Sarah W. Hays, United States Magistrate Judge for the
