My quick take on a circuit using discrete components would be two "one-
shots" in series. A one-shot is basically a flip-flop that generates a
pulse of desired duration. The first one-shot generates a pulse of x+y
milliseconds. When it is triggered by the pushbutton it generates a
pulse, and no further pushbutton actions can affect it for x+y
milliseconds. The output of that one-shot then triggers another one-
shot that generates a pulse of x milliseconds to drive the relay for
the solenoid.

You have to ask yourself though, wouldn't it be better in the long run
to invest some time and a few extra bucks in a microcontroller, rather
than go through the trouble of building and testing a custom circuit.
