Tachanun is omitted in a Minyan in which a person who will be a Sandek that day is participating in, even if the Bris will not be taking place in that Shul. Tachanun is recited in the Mincha prayer if it is taking place after the Bris, even if the Sandek is present. However, the Sandek hismelf does not recite Tachanun even in Mincha.

When circumcising twin boys may the two boys be in the same room at the same time when each one’s of circumcision is taking place, as I heard that they should not be in the room at the same time?
Indeed, this matter is debated amongst the Poskim and is dependent on the debate of whether a single blessing should be recited for both circumcisions in which case they are brought to the area at the same time or whether two blessing should be said, one for each of circumcision, in which case the second baby should only be brought after the circumcision of the first baby is complete. Practically, according to the ruling of Admur, by twins a single blessing is said for them both, and therefore they are to be brought to the room together.

May a person who is putting up Mezuzos to his new home honor several individuals put up a mezuzah with a blessing each on a different door?[1]
No. Only a single blessing may be said on behalf of all the people putting up the Mezuzos.
