I've run wireshark before but I'm not very familiar with it. Would I run it on my windows PC and look for multicast traffic from the pi?

You could run it either place or both (it would tell you different info depending on where you ran it).

I took a look at the traffic under services and plugins-->Media Network and noticed that the time and date on the pi were not correct. Resolving this has kept the pi connected for several hours. I'm not sure that I am ready to say this is resolved but it looks promising. I'll follow up after more time and report the results.

Nice you found the hiccup , and your are right : i can’t think of a scenario where your PI could not resolve it’s own hostname where all other computers can.
(due to the mistakes I ended up with 2 resolv.conf on different locations, one used by eth0 and one by wlan0, in you’re straight forward setup this can’t be the cause)

If it happens again: It doesn’t hurt to try to ping the hostname form the PI or take a look at the DNS registration on the PI (getent hosts yourhostname)

The pi doesn't have a hardware clock, so if you haven't set up some kind of external clock synchronization (e.g. NTP) this will eventually become a problem again.  I hadn't thought about it because I was fairly certain that the default NOOBS Raspbian install had NTP already setup, but I may be misrecalling.  

I'll keep my fingers crossed that solves it!

Is the time zone set according to your location?
