I don't use escalations but the warning above and the very explicit text at http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/notifications.html#filters (Service and Host Filters) explains your problem --

"Note: Notifications about host or service recoveries are only sent out if a notification was sent out for the original problem. It doesn't make sense to get a recovery notification for something you never knew was a problem."

If you don't want the outage notifications to go out you'll need to edit your sms notify script to ignore them.
