It says let us in Genesis because God declares the end from the beginning. In God's mind he had already created Jesus and Adam was created off of the model of Jesus. This doesn't mean that Jesus was physically with God in the beginning, it means it was already God's plan, his strategy. Jesus wasn't physically there, but he was on the mind of God when he began creating everything. This is why it says all things were created for him and by him and without him nothing was made that was made. God made everything based off Jesus and since Jesus was God manifested in the flesh, everything was made by him, not by the flesh, but the Spirit, because God is a Spirit. Jesus created the human spirit on the 6th day, the 7th day he rested, and the 8th day he created the flesh of human, he created something new, this is why Jesus is called the first and the last. The first is why it calls him the beginning of the new creation and the last just means he's the archetype or the principal, the original model in which everything was created after, which is why it says image and likeness. Jesus is the glory of God, the glory took on many forms in the Old Testament until a body was prepared for it through the dietary law, the ceremonial law and the moral law, over years which culminated in the virgin birth and the glory of God was finally put in flesh. Jesus was in God's womb per se just like what God told Jeremiah that he knew him. God knew all his creation before we were created, this is why Jesus could say that he never knew some people because he didn't create them, but they were the result of sin and the seed of Satan. This is why it says let us instead of let me.
