The post featured a photo of Madeline holding her newborn's tiny hand as he laid on a baby blanket alongside a small round sign that read "He's Here."
As per People, Matthew, 29, and his brother Johnny, 31, on August 29 died in a bike crash in Oldmans Township, N.J., after they were hit by drunk driver Sean M Higgins.
The brothers were laid to rest on September 9 at a joint funeral, where she and Johnny's widow Meredith gave emotional speeches honoring their late husbands.
Earlier, mourning the demise of the brothers, Madeline penned a long note on her Instagram account, talking about the bond Matthew and his brother Johnny shared.
She wrote, "It was always Matty & John. I can't even put into words the bond these two had and right now, I don't have the strength. They were each other's biggest cheerleaders. Matt looked up to John in so many ways, but the most important was the father he was to Noa & Johnny. I find extreme comfort in knowing they are together, as they always were. I know they are still messing with each other up there and will continue to look over their families."
In October, Madeline posted a series of photos on Instagram from her baby shower. Friends and family members were seen celebrating at the event, which featured blue and white balloons, as well as cloud- and "heaven"-themed decor.
