Just curious why I have several instances of httpd running when I don't presently have any outside hosts connected?

In your config file for apache ( /etc/httpd/http.conf )
look for the lines
MinSpareServers n MaxSpareServer n
For a home system (not a real web server) you only need one. I have the max set to 2 and the min to 1
But even if you have more then one, they don't need very much resources, as long as they wait for incoming connections. As Linux does 'copy-on-write' they'll share the RAM, and are idle. No need to tune this...
